🌟 [ 4 ] The race to solve solar energys recycling problem [ @ ]
( 37400 viewed : 1370 like : 148 comments ) Right now, millions of old solar panels are headed for landfills. This is not just really bad news for the environment as there are heavy metals like cadmium or lead in some of them, it's also a huge waste of raw materials. Within the EU, solar panels already have to be recycled. But companies are still chasing the tech that makes it viable to reuse the recovered materials in new solar panels.
