Resell or Recycle: A Guide for Handling Used Solar Panels

Solar energy provides a clean alternative to fossil fuel sources. Yet, progress achieved can be negatively offset by used solar panels flowing into landfills. Ask any PV professional, and they will assure you that it is not their intention to contribute to e-waste. Rather, the goal is to create a circular economy that supports reuse and recycling.

Researchers Warn of Tsunami of Obsolete Solar Panels

In the United States, the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) has six firms that are capable of recycling modules and inverters; five of them will accept crystalline silicon panels and one will recycle its own thin-film panels. The busier recyclers process only about 100 tons of silicon per month. "Owing to the low volumes of modules
