Virginia is one of the top states for solar power in theU.S. SEIA reports that the state has over 6,800 megawatts (MW) of solar power capacity and utility-scale solar projects have been growing rapidly in recent years. Responsible end-of-life management of solar panels is crucial for this expanding market. Virginia has regulations concerning solid waste management and environmental protection that apply to solar decommissioning. Our company provides comprehensive solar panel recycling services, ensuring compliance and sustainability. We prioritize material recovery, minimizing landfill waste and contributing to a circular economy. From residential to utility-scale projects, we offer tailored solutions. If you’ve got questions about managing solar PV at end-of-life or recycling solar panels in Virginia, give us a call.
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.
