the expensive way is to have solar panels make electricity to run an electric heater.
the cheap way is to have panels heat the water directly.
that’s a fairly large pool, but it should work.
probably not in Alaska in January.
but then, you’re not going to generate any electricity there either.

A clear insulating cover would be much cheaper and probably do as much good as creating electricity to heat the water. A green house over it might cost as much as panels, but be much more efficient.

You’d be better off using a solar hot water system on the pool, than generating electricity to run a heater to heat the water.

To achieve total solar heating, the panel square footage must equal 50% of your pool’s square footage (length x width). You can do some pricing on the website below.
