A major fire tore through Malton and Norton District Hospital’s Springwood ward in North Yorkshire, sparking fears and forcing a full evacuation — but miraculously, no one was hurt. Investigators now point to the hospital’s solar panels as the likely cause, raising fresh concerns about rooftop solar safety amid similar incidents reported in homes. Fire crews battled the blaze overnight, and while the mental health ward suffered significant damage, the hospital has since reopened with services restored. The full cause remains under investigation, but this event has ignited a broader conversation about the risks and reliability of solar installations.
