PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Solar Panel Recycling Market is anticipated to exhibit a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 22% during the forecast span from 2024 to 2034. In 2023, the market size was assessed at USD 2.1 billion and is projected to reach USD 18.5 billion by the completion of 2034.

Solar panel recycling is a process to recover valuable materials from outdated or damaged solar panels to reduce waste and support sustainability. These panels are made of glass, aluminum, silicon, and various metals, that typically last 25-30 years. In addition, the rising adoption of solar energy and responsibly managing solar panel waste is becoming increasingly important. The process usually starts with dismantling the panels and then separating and processing the components for reuse. Moreover, recycling is essential to reduce environmental impacts and conserve resources, as recycled materials can be reused in manufacturing, which lowers the demand for new raw materials. Thus, this practice supports the circular economy and ensures that the environmental benefits of solar power persist beyond the operational lifespan of solar panels. Besides, solar panel recycling is essential for the sustainable growth of the renewable energy sector.

MARKET HIGHLIGHTS

Solar Panel Recycling Market is projected to reach USD 18.5 billion over the forecast period, due to the increasing use of solar energy and the need to manage the waste from panels reaching the end of their lifespan. This growth is attributed to the strong focus on sustainability and responsible waste management practices. Additionally, improvements in recycling technologies are improving the efficiency and affordability of the process, which further boost the development of the solar panel recycling market. Alongside, leading companies are investing in innovative techniques to recover valuable materials such as silicon, silver, and aluminium from decommissioned panels. Government incentives and high awareness of the environmental benefits of recycling are motivating businesses to adopt sustainable practices. Thus, as the solar energy industry continues to expand, the recycling market will play an essential role in promoting a circular economy and lowering the environmental impact of solar energy systems.
