Roof top solar is great for people with spare cash to optimise heir future cash flow.
I advocate for nuclear because it guarantees the poor won’t freeze in the dark.
So it doesn't go on the roof.
Doesn't mean you can't get PV, in an apartment, as a renter:

These are specifically intended for apartments, and Germany has a low home ownership rate.
It may only be 800W, but it's also only €239, not $10,000 like you suggest in the other reply.
If it's monetary gain then thats a political not one in residence.
If not producing enough power then that's a people's problem. Being greedy taking more than what they need and for not enough resources on building efficiency.
Overall solar works. It's just gate-kept tightly by evil organisations who are scared to lose their dirty cash for such technology to evolve.
And why would a landlord sink $10,000+ in to a property for no return.
Roof top solar only works for the user who has the roof top solar.
For everyone else it makes electricity more expensive.
Happy to be proven wrong. Show me a majority of places with high roof top solar penetration where per kWh electricity rates have fallen.
And who cares about carbon emissions, China and India have that covered - I don’t need to worry about producing more or less CO2 emissions because it won’t make any difference whether or not I believe in catastrophic climate change.
As the statista.com report says >...Rooftop solar photovoltaic installations on residential buildings and nuclear power have the highest unsubsidized levelized costs of energy generation in the United States. If it wasn't for federal and state subsidies, rooftop solar PV would come with a price tag between 122 and 284 U.S. dollars per megawatt-hour.
