Apparently a fair number of people die from solar as a result of falling off of roofs.

I'm only considering utility-scale power. Those are ground-level, not rooftop installations.

If you want to include all forms of "home" power generation, including heating and cooking, then wood fireplaces are mass-murderers, killing tens of thousands due to particulate pollution and carbon monoxide poisoning. Not to mention homes burning down and killing the occupants.
