Industry News

The global Photovoltaic panel recycling market is growing due to competition for solar photovoltaic panels across commercial, residential, and industrial uses and increased government efforts to promote solar energy. Nevertheless, a shortage of Asia-Pacific Solar Panel Recycling infrastructure plus issues connected with recycling stymie market expansion. Countries such as India, China, and the United States, on the other side, are resentful of new market prospects.

The crystalline silicon category, which accounted for more than four-fifths of the worldwide Asia-Pacific Solar Panel Recycling industry in 2020, is expected to maintain its dominance during the forecast period.

It is due to an increase in the need for crystalline silicon for standalone PV systems like solar street light lights and telecommunication and signalling towers, which employ solar panels to charge the batteries. Furthermore, the thin-film technology usage throughout building-integrated photovoltaic applications (BIPV), like the roof or the exterior, the thin film segment is expected to grow at the fastest pace of 14.6 percent from 2021 to 2030.
