Energy companies say a labor shortage is one big obstacle to installing more solar power. They’re turning to machines to speed things up.

      These ones are designed to do utility-scale installation. Probably a bit heavy for your roof

    How do we know these robots won’t skim from the top, cut the crust for themselves, make electrons no one would miss go missing?

    How can a working class robot working for free even afford to buy such big batteries, golden power plugs, and a docking station the size of a house?

    These robots are also prime suppliers of illegal power (usually cut down into 9V batteries) with dealers all over town, allegedly. Where do they source their power from, if they aren’t stealing it from the solar farms?
