How is that so? Imagine a pitch-black sidewalk, which already absorbs and directly converts to heat nearly 100% of sunlight. I'm sure those are still covered by snow and ice on a harsh winter. Where is the energy to melt it coming from, it the solar panel will also pick up the very same sunlight? I don't think you are exactly thinking this through.
i think you should broaden your view, cuz it'll blow your mind
