As the global adoption of photovoltaics accelerates, so does the challenge of managing end-of-life solar panels sustainably. Across these presentations we will explore how to optimise resource recovery, reduce waste, and support a circular economy while addressing industry challenges like scalability and economic feasibility as well as cutting-edge automated technologies that bridge the gap between reuse and recycling, focusing on efficient, AI-driven processes to assess, refurbish, and prepare solar panels for a second lifecycle.
