The global solar panel recycling industry is being driven by the heightened adoption of solar panels across industries, in an endeavour to support the transition from conventional energy resources to sustainable resources. This can be attributed to the rising concerns of pollution and environmental degradation. In addition, increased government investments to promote the use of solar panels in the household segment by offering subsidies are leading to increased solar panel installation As a result, the demand for solar panel recycling solutions is also anticipated to surge in the forecast period, as these solutions help in the extraction of recoverable raw materials from end-of-life solar panels, further diverting them from landfills. Moreover, solar panels also comprise critical substances that might be harmful for the environment and human health, which is, thus, expected to bolster the demand for solar panel recycling in the forecast period.
The growing investments by the leading players in the development of dedicated recycling plants to recover essential raw materials from solar panels are expected to catalyse the industry growth in the forecast period. For instance, in July 2018, Veolia Environnement S.A. (OTCMKTS: VEOEY) announced the opening of Europe’s first photovoltaic panel recycling plant in Rousset, France. This plant is aimed at treating and recycling end-of-life "crystalline silicon" type photovoltaic panels. With this, the company intends to meet the heightened demand for solar panel recycling with the increasing number of ageing panels worldwide. Furthermore, in April 2022, Silicon Ranch and First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ: FSLR) announced their partnership, under which the latter will supply 4 GW of responsibly produced thin film photovoltaic (PV) solar modules to Solar Ranch. In addition, First Solar will also provide its advanced recycling services for the end-of-life CadTel modules from Silicon Ranch projects for the extraction of raw materials that can be used in the production of newer modules and other materials. Such developments are expected to positively impact the growth of the solar panel recycling industry in the forecast period.
