My impression is that these have to be permitted before they're allowed to be operational (at least in the U$, depending on location or whatever). I'd guess you'd at least have to get a new inspection when more were added on?
Most solar installers around me seem to be concentrating on grifting financing/leases, so I'd think they would make this hard to do.
It does genuinely seem like a good idea, though!
The financing thing is a good point, the lease model would incentivize encouraging people to trash their panels once they're paid off
