Nevada’s solar capacity has been growing by leaps and bounds over recent years and the state now has over 7,900 megawatts of solar capacity. Growth in the residential and commercial solar markets has been turbo charged by rapid growth inutility-scale solar in Nevada. Although Nevada does not have specific solar panel recycling or decommissioning statutes, environmental and hazardous waste regulations apply. As solar installations age, state authorities and industry groups may craft clearer end-of-life guidelines. Until that occurs, owners can act preemptively: identify certified recyclers, follow current best practices, and maintain records for future reference. If you need help with solar panel recycling in Nevada, contact SOLARCYCLE for expert guidance.
Tailored Recycling Solutions: We recognize that every customer has different needs, systems, financing, and geographic considerations. Our trained professionals begin with a consultation to identify your specific needs and craft a plan to optimize your portfolio. We provide a range of PV and solar panel recycling services including:
Reverse Logistics
Panels are bulky and can be expensive to ship long distances. We mobilize quickly and get your panels off-site within days if needed. Our team of reverse logistics professionals will determine the most efficient route from your facility to our advanced recycling lines in Texas, Arizona and soon the Southeast. We also provide full decommissioning services.
Rapid Testing
We offer on-site as well as off-site testing using our PV Evolutions Lab-approved process to identify microcracks, hot spots, water ingress and more. When requested by our customers, we can find ways to extend the use of panels for another 5-10 years before they are recycled.
Low-Cost, Eco-Friendly Recycling
Our advanced, high-recovery recycling process extracts more than 95% of the value in a panel — returning key materials like aluminum, silver, silicon, and glass to the domestic supply chains. And our ISO-certified facilities are designed to protect workers and the environment, and reduce environmental impacts over time.
Advanced Environmental Reporting
Our customers care about protecting the environment and have stakeholders who want to see the metrics and the impact. Our Chief Technology Officer, Dr. Pablo Dias, leads the development of our recycling process, and oversees our use of Life Cycle Analysis to produce science-based environmental reporting for your team.
