Will AI replace Solar Photovoltaic Installers?

Why this score

AI-driven design tools are already automating the site assessment, shading analysis, and system layout work that solar PV installers currently assist with or perform. Drone-based roof surveys paired with computer vision are reducing the need for manual measurement and inspection tasks on-site. The physical installation work — mounting rails, wiring panels, running conduit — remains hard to automate with current robotics, but AI-optimized workflows are compressing crew sizes and changing which skills matter most on a job site. If you only carry a drill and follow a layout drawing someone else generated, how long before the crew lead decides they need fewer of you?
