Because people would break this almost instantly?
Who tf breaks car park roofs?
The same people that keep ripping off the fire safety instructions in the lift in our building and who keep violently jumping on the steps of metro escalators until they break and who keep kicking street lamps until they turn off and who keep cutting the seats on trains.
What is wrong with your street lamps that kicking them turns them off? I've seen lamps taken out by cars that still run if the bulb survived and the wires didn't rip.
Idk. It does take effort and usually a few tries but I've done it myself in my younger, stupider years.
Where do you live? I haven't seen anything like that here, even though we do still have vandalism. I don't think it's a good idea to generalize from the sorry state of things in your area.
Cologne and a handful of other places in Germany.
I live in Germany, too and have never seen or heard of that kind of vandalism. So, very localized issue.
Or maybe you live in a very localised bubble of non-idiots :)
Free copper!
There are already tons of solar panels on private homes here, I've never heard of anyone trying to destroy them for copper.
Private homes have people in them at night, which tends to make methheads skittish. Carparks do not. And its not unheard of for thiefs to strip copper from unoccupied homes.
We've had copper thiefs destroy school buildings for a few hundred dollars of copper, I don't see why they wouldn't go for a solar install.
