Free copper!
There are already tons of solar panels on private homes here, I've never heard of anyone trying to destroy them for copper.
Private homes have people in them at night, which tends to make methheads skittish. Carparks do not. And its not unheard of for thiefs to strip copper from unoccupied homes.
We've had copper thiefs destroy school buildings for a few hundred dollars of copper, I don't see why they wouldn't go for a solar install.
