Solar panels last longer than expected -- after 30+ years some panels still generate 80% of their original power. At least in the study area (which was Switzerland) panels made in the 80s and 90s had a degradation rate of about 0.25%/year, which is frankly not all that much.
Solar panels. They're just a really good energy investment.
