From Waste to Worth: Shaping the Future of Recycling Renewables
Recycling Components | End-of-Life Strategies | Second Life Applications
With one of the largest (263 GW) and oldest solar fleets in the world, Europe faces a pressing need to handle significant solar PV waste streams, ensuring responsible, quality and circular end-of-life (EoL) management. As PV systems start reaching their EoL, the industry must address what to do with still-functional equipment and manage waste responsibly if it wants to maintain public trust in solar as a clean energy source. With the necessity of ramping up battery energy storage systems (BESS) to maintain the speed of the energy transition, the topic of proper battery recycling is just as pressing. Batteries are valuable and recyclable, but because of technical, economic, and other factors, less than 5% are recycled today.
Join us at the Solarplaza Summit Recycling Renewables - an event co-organized by Solarplaza and PV CYCLE - for a day of learning, knowledge sharing, and inspiration as we work together to close the loop in renewable energy and create a truly sustainable future for the industry. Hear about the latest insights on recycling methods and learn from success stories on transforming waste into valuable resources and the business models that can empower it.
