New Life Cycle
-
> Current recyclability ~ 80% (steel,
alumiunium, copper, glass already
fully recycled)
Estimated recyclability at 2025
- 95%
(improvement in the recycling rate of
precious materials: silicon, silver, etc)
Silver
KEY INITIATIVES (examples)
PV Circular Design (3SUN)
Technologies are being developed
to introduce to introduce recycled
materials into the production
process, such as replacing the
glass of the panels with recycled
plastic.

Photorama project for PV
Recycling
EU Funded projects in
collaboration with 14 partners with
the aim to identify a suitable
treatment for the recovery of
PHOTORAMA precious materials reaching a total
recycling rate of 95 %.
