SOLARCYCLE’s Post

Recyclable Solar panels are here..... The Mesa facility will initially recycle 250,000 solar panels each year, and ramp to one million panels per year to keep pace with growing market demand in the solar industry for its recycling and circular supply chain services. With the rapid growth in solar energy in the U.S., there is also growing concern about what will happen to solar panels at the end of their useful life. Without an increase in solar recycling, the U.S. will contribute 10 million metric tons of trash in landfills and other waste facilities by 2050

Qcells USA Corp. and SOLARCYCLE have teamed up to recycle decommissioned solar panels in the United States, boosting a #cleanenergy supply chain that could reduce dependence on imported raw materials. https://lnkd.in/eH3QDHC7 The partnership will use Solarcycle’s technology to extract more than 95% of the value from a solar panel module, and recycle the materials from Qcells’ panels, including aluminum, silver, copper, silicon, and low-iron glass. The materials will be reused in the domestic #supplychain. According to Solarcycle, its technology enables far better extraction of materials to be recycled — by comparison, the industry standard is 50% of the value in a solar panel module, the company said. Some estimates are even lower. “We want our solar panels to not only help our customers cut costs and carbon, but also to be a part of building a more sustainable clean energy industry,” said Kelly Weger Qcells’ director of sustainability. “Our partnership with Solarcycle will give our panels a life after powering homes, businesses and communities, reducing waste and reusing pieces for all types of technology including solar.”

🌞♻️ Exciting news from pv magazine Australia ! Queensland commits $2.5 million for a solar panel recycling scheme! 👏REC applauds this commitment towards sustainable energy practices. With the rapid growth of rooftop solar, it's crucial to address the end-of-life management of solar panels. According to International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), large quantities of solar panels may end up in the waste stream by the early 2030s. We must act now to prepare for this inevitable scenario. However, the best form of recycling is the one we don't need. That's why REC emphasizes the importance of panel longevity, offering strong up to 25 year product and performance warranties. By investing in durable solar solutions, we can limit the need for recycling and ensure a cleaner, greener future for generations to come. 🌿 👩👧👦 👉Let's continue to innovate and prioritize sustainability in our renewable energy journey! 🌱 #SolarRecycling #ReduceWaste #SustainableFuture #CleanEnergy #Renewables #RECProTrust 🔗https://lnkd.in/gc366rr4
