Latest case of the theft of millions of photovoltaic panels
In a recent incident at The Villages, a suspect has been apprehended in connection with the theft of solar panels from the new Eastport Town Center. . A significant theft has disrupted the renewable energy sector in Manzanillo, Granma, where local authorities reported that 38 photovoltaic panels and 20 steel beams were stolen from a solar park. The panels were taken from a facility in the southern part of the city, near an area known as La Mocha. . According to Spotter Global, theft from solar farms was expected to rise throughout 2024, with growing demand for panels making them both easier to sell and more valuable to steal. This rapid expansion has brought about a corresponding rise in the number of solar panel installations, both residential and. . The financial cost of crime to the agricultural industry was brought into sharp focus last year with NFU Mutual's 2023 Rural Crime Report, estimating that £49.
