Overview

The IEA-PVPS latest Task 12 report demonstrates measurable progress in PV module recycling technologies, reflecting enhanced recovery of high-value materials, improved yields, and greater output purity. This progress is based on updated lifecycle inventory data from multiple international sources, including U.S. and European recyclers and projects. The findings indicate that PV module recycling is advancing significantly, supporting sustainability in solar power deployment.
