A system configured for electro-thermal defrosting, desnowing and/or deicing includes (a) a component susceptible to accumulation of ice, frost, and/or snow, and (b) an electro-thermal multilayer on the component. The electro-thermal multilayer comprises a heating layer on an insulating layer, where the heating layer is configured for electrical connection to a source of pulsed power. The electro-thermal multilayer optionally includes a superhydrophobic layer. The component may be a photovoltaic panel, a wind turbine blade, a heat exchanger coil or fin, or an aircraft wing, e.g., of an electrified aircraft. The electro-thermal multilayer may be adhered to the component as a coating or removably secured to the component as a module.
