SOLARCYCLE® provides an affordable, eco-friendly process to decommission solar panels and repurpose the materials for new uses.
We partner with the nation’s leading solar companies to recycle their solar systems and build a circular solar economy.
We were established by the solar industry, for the solar industry. Founded by experts in renewable energy, sustainability, and recycling, our leadership knows firsthand why the industry needs a partner to restore, renew, and ultimately recycle yesterday's solar panels for tomorrow's renewable energy projects.
About usEven the most careful installer may break panels. We will safely transport and recycle any modules that are damaged during the installation process.
We manage panels that are damaged due to extreme weather events, wear and tear, warranty failure and more.
We manage the repair, refurbishment and recycling for systems that have reached their end of life.
Since opening in 2022, we have earned the trust of the leading solar companies who have committed to recycling their solar panels sustainably with us. We are also a member of Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA)'s National PV Recycling Program, Advanced Energy United (AEU), and American Clean Power (ACP). Our partnerships help increase the industry's commitment to recycling and ensure environmentally responsible end-of-life management.
Our patented processes to extract and renew critical materials like silver and copper are increasingly extracting value from each panel. Combined with reverse logistics, our technology allows us to provide the lowest-cost recycling solution to our customers.

We are working with the Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and partners to optimize the recovery process and develop new solutions to recover the valuable materials in solar cells and solar modules and return them back to the supply chain.
