   The more sunlight that gets in the more power out of a solar panel. Less ozone more sunshine.

   probably not.
   solar panels use somewhat specific frequencies of incoming solar radiation.
   ozone blocks a somewhat higher frequency range of radiation.

   in addition, ozone holes occur at the poles, which is not where most people live.
   typically, it’s not economical to use a solar panel at that latitude because the year round energy available is not nearly enough to pay for the panel.
