For me the best anti ice and anti snow solution is hot air.
Solar panel deicer.

After the snow turn on the heating system in a short time the surface of the solar panel will be free of snow ice.
Is an amazing durable solar powered heated livestock watering tank for cold winter conditions keeps your livestock water cool and algae free in summer.
Fall of 2013 i installed a solar de icer which amounted to a solar panel air pump hose and a bubbler that went into the tank.
Solar panel to power tank de icer.
The passive solar tank the livestock waterer is built around a standard galvanized metal stock tank which is surrounded by a well insulated enclosure.
These extra 2 cm are for the frame but also allow the air to circulate.
So you could only draw power when the solar panels are in use so that s only when the sun is out.
Solar panels are usually about 2 cm thick for a pv film that s 1 mm thick.
On a lone mountain top in the middle of nowhere there is a tower that happily relays microwave radio signals to bring the joys horrors of the internet to those who would have to do without.
Water troughs were froze up all winter long.
Photovoltaic panel de icer thermal technology de icer for photovoltaic panel melts the snow that accumulates on top of it allowing normal operation.
Plans for one would be fine or a unit that had both parts included the tank de icer and the solar panel.

The only thing i could think of to make it work would be to have 15 solar panels.
Cost of kit 350 00.
You see there s no battery in an inverter.
Solar panels directly connected to a heated waterer wouldn t work because you d need an inverter.
50 less adherence may also not be sufficient for self deicing and will probably require physical operations to actually remove the ice.
That would sit between the solar panel and the device you want to plug in.
The only things i have found are enclosed tanks with insulation for 600.
