That Los Angeles Cold Storage Fire Is A Case Study in What Not to Do with Solar Panels
StacheD details, in this 8-minute video, what’s STILL happening with that solar-panel-caused fire at a cold storage warehouse in Los Angeles, even though the fire is theoretically contained:
What a disaster, all caused by subsidized solar installation! One can only imagine what this will do to insurance rates for warehouses with solar panels.

With repeat fires at this facility it makes you wonder about the installation - proper or not, inspected or not? And the power shutoff not functioning properly? Will insurance companies simply increase rates or refuse coverage? When rooftop solar is installed do we need different construction techniques and standards? And for retrofit buildings what standards do we need? Safety should be considered in the design and if the solar installation is too expensive due to design considerations then don’t do it!!
Thank you for posting. Back in 2013 I was involved in rooftop solar for a college. When the Dietz and Watson warehouse fire occurred, we all became alarmed about our project. So far no problems but here is the NJ experience in 2013. This has been a concern for awhile: https://whyy.org/articles/6-alarm-fire-rips-through-dietz-a-watson-warehouse/
