EMP attack on HI. Are your solar panels hardened?

Sometimes they're also preppers:

To the original question of, "Are you solar panels hardened?", I am sure it wouldn't be possible to do so and still have them produce power. The shielding required would drop the amount of sunlight reaching the panel.I routinely work in completely entire hardened facilities. In most of these facilities, you cannot even get a cell signal if you are pressed against an outside window. Even the windows in these facilities have screens between the panes and a tinted metallic coating that prevents most wireless/wifi from penetrating.

The only way to protect yourself is to wrap your house in tin foil.

If you haven't yet completed your home's tin foil protective coating due to sudden demand for Reynold's Wrap at area stores, you may be (slightly) comforted to read about the recently deployed missile defense system and accompanying X-band AN/TPY-2 radar in South Korea:

It... lends weight to Goethe's felicitous description of architecture as 'frozen music.' ... Does this, I often wonder, make music 'defrosted architecture?' Listening to Bach's Goldberg variations as I often do on walks when motorway noise and other auditory intrusions preclude the music of silence, it strikes me that it might. - Pub Walks in Underhill Country, Nat Segnit

Just wondering...is the foil backed OSB(chip plywood) sufficient for protection? How about the aluminum sheets you can retrofit your attic for energy savings, does that work? I don't think I have to worry much with my vehicles, as two out of the three are "old school" in e sense there is no on board computer to make it run, and the third has an aluminum body with a screen mesh lined inner panel that covers the computers which I made. Good enough?
