Depends. While PV solar panels are rated up to 30 years useful life and there is indeed no mechanical action going on in their operation, the semiconductors inside them doesn't like high heat, so it tends to need some form of cooling. Not sure how the PV parks they're putting up in New Mexico and various tropic locations will fare. I guess we'll see.
