Although the fixed feed-in tariff system (FIT system) introduced in 2012 led to a rapid adoption of solar power generation nationwide, challenges toward the sustainable spread of renewable energy have become apparent, including harmony with local communities and the environment, as well as future mass disposal. In particular, there are concerns that these solar panels will be removed and disposed of en masse around the mid-2030s, with estimates suggesting a volume of 170,000 to 280,000 tons per year. In response to the future mass disposal issue, efforts are being made nationwide by government agencies, research institutions, and private companies to develop technologies and establish recycling environments. However, the reality of these efforts has not been comprehensively reported in the media, and outdated or incorrect information is rampant, particularly on social media. This report, "The Reality of Solar Panel Recycling: Unique Research and Analysis Based on Public Documents," organizes the information disseminated on the comprehensive information site for solar panel recycling, "PV Recycling.com(R)," and introduces analytical case studies based on various public information and data, proposing challenges and countermeasures that emerge from these facts.

The "Glass Waker III System" is a solar panel recycling device that consistently provides the separation, sorting, and collection of used solar panels, as well as the utilization of recycled valuable materials. All materials collected through separation are utilized as valuable resources. Aluminum frames, electrodes, and wires are recycled as metals, while back sheets and cells are processed in smelting plants to recover silver. We offer recycling technology cultivated through glass recycling and know-how for utilizing recycled glass. 【Features】 ◆ Thorough recycling of solar panels ◆ Proven track record in glass recycling ◆ Network through the "Waste Glass Recycling Business Cooperative" *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
