Neunkirchen: Start-up gives solar panels new life

Von WOM

This day, many solar panels face the problem that they have reached the end of their lifespan. However, what happens to these discarded modules? An innovative solution was developed by a start-up from Nuremberg in cooperation with an entrepreneur from Neunkirchen. This partnership aims to give these old solar panels a second life.

The rapid increase in installed solar systems are being created more and more old and now inefficient modules, which are usually either disposed of or sent to scrap sites. This not only represents an ecological problem, but also a financial, since the production of new panels is increasingly relevant.

The idea behind the recycling

The founders of this initiative have recognized that it is possible to make the valuable materials and the technology of the disused modules usable again. You have developed a process that can be used to process the old solar panels so that you can continue to generate energy, even if you no longer achieve full performance like new

This approach not only tolerates the waste, but also promotes more sustainable management in the energy industry. By recycling the modules, fewer raw materials are used for the production of new panels and the environment is relieved.

Another positive aspect of this idea is that it creates potentially jobs. The start-up plans to set up a production facility in Neunkirchen, which should take over both the preparation and the marketing of the regenerated solar panels. This would not only mean an economic upswing for the region, but also strengthen awareness of sustainable energy production.

The idea behind this recycling project can serve as a model for other regions that have similar problems with old solar panels. It remains to be seen how this project will develop and whether it can actually be implemented on a larger scale.
