                      events across New South Wales (NSW), whichreduced
                      photovoltaic (PV) power output. We analyze 30-min energy
                      data from 160 geographicallyseparated residential PV systems
                      in NSW with a total capacity of 312 kW from 6 Nov 2019–15
                      Jan2020. The observed mean power reduction rate for PV
                      energy generation as a function of the fine par-ticulate
                      matter (PM 2.5 ) concentration is 13 G $2\%$ per 100 mg/m 3
                      of PM 2.5 . The resulting energy lossfor residential and
                      utility PV systems is estimated at 175 G 35 GWh, equating to
                      a worst-case financialloss of 19 G 4 million USD. We found
                      the relative impact to be most significant in the mornings
                      andevenings, which may necessitate the installation of
                      additional energy storage. As PV systems are sen-sitive to
                      smoke and become ubiquitous, we propose employing them to
                      support wildfire detection andmonitoring.},
