Why not have solar panels on the roof absorb all the sunlight and keep the house cooler via an air gap?

Furthermore, I would love to have water heating this way. Solar panels heating a water container in the winter, that is mixed into showers and even small pools on demand.

Any observant Jews here who don’t want to use water heating on Shabbat? This may be a great idea.

PS: Heating a house is the only application of Proof of Work Mining that I approve of. But even then, I would rather it be useful work like SETI or protein folding:
