Those solar panels were damaged by hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico. Another solar field designed to withstand hurricanes went undamaged:
Update: After going through more NOAA imagery, I found some good news. The giant solar field built by TSK Solar (originally falsely said “Canadian Solar”) (below) came out relatively unscathed after facing harsh winds from Irma and Maria. These panels are specifically designed to outlast hurricanes. Each panel is built several meters off the ground to avoid floods and reinforced to withstand winds of category 5 hurricanes (156mph).
Solar panels can be built to withstand hail, too.
I would hope so. But you assume they would ever be built correctly.
And they still kill all the vegetation around them.
