Yet, the notion that solar panels produce significant glare is largely a myth, rooted in a misunderstanding of how the technology functions. Modern photovoltaic (PV) panels are meticulously engineered for one primary purpose: to absorb as much sunlight as possible. In addition, the reflections can also be harmful to surrounding wildlife or heat-sensitive equipment. This happens more in the morning or evening when the sun is low. Green glare can tire your eyes over time.
