About Solar Panel Recycling
Despite their appearance, solar panels are quite rugged. Under ideal conditions, their elements are subject only to gradual degradation. In most cases, solar farm owners can expect their solar panels’ performance to degrade by only 0.5% each year. This means that after 20 years, it can still function at 90%.
While solar panels can last for many decades, they will eventually reach the end of their lifespan. Some owners may want to replace them sooner in order to obtain new panels that function at peak performance. In addition, solar panels may sometimes need to be replaced much earlier than expected if they are subjected to damage from hailstorms, lightning strikes, or similar damaging events.
Solar panel recycling services from Okon Recycling help ensure that even at the end of their life cycle, solar panels can still be a sustainable solution.
The Life Cycle of Solar Panels
At Okon Recycling, our team excels at making end-of-life solutions for solar panels as efficient as possible. The life cycle of solar panels follows this main pathway:
- Extraction and processing of raw materials, including silicon, glass, and metals
- Manufacturing and assembly of raw materials into solar system components
- Installation of solar panels and other system components at solar farms, businesses, and homes
- Generation of clean, renewable electricity while requiring minimal maintenance
- Decommission of old or damaged panels and recycling
