A news headline reports that a solar panel sparked a fire near the Noosa civic centre, and the story address says fire crews were called. The article text itself was not available, so the type of installation, the cause, the damage and whether anyone was hurt are not known.

Not reported. The headline does not explain how the fire started beyond saying that a solar panel sparked it.

  1. A solar panel fire report must stay unconfirmed until the installation type and outcome are checked.
  2. Fire crews need clear access to panels on or near public buildings from the first call.
