Circular Economy for the Solar Industry

  1. Avitesh Vaishnavi Nayak

Abstract

The term “circular economy” refers to a model of production and consumption that was first introduced in the late 1990s. This model encourages increasing amounts of reusing, refurbishing, repairing, and recycling. Circular economy (CE) has developed over time and is currently being utilized in a wide variety of fields and countries. Solar panels are being manufactured at an increasing rate, and the percentage of people using solar energy is also growing. Yes! Solar energy is particularly beneficial to the environment, and it is assisting in the reduction of CO2 emissions.However, the lifespan of a solar panel is approximately 25 years, and these industries are not thinking about what will happen when the lifetime of the panel will expire. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of the development of research and the formation of ideas in the solar energy sector, as well as to identify contemporary developments in how a circular economy can be employed within the solar sector. In addition, this article aims to provide an overview of the evolution of research and the formation of ideas in the solar energy sector. The implementation of the CE modelin recent years has resulted in a significant reduction in the amount of waste produced and resource extraction in the construction sector. These talks are useful outcomes of this application.
