Researchers at Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research anticipate a steep rise in global glass demand as the solar industry increasingly adopts double-glass photovoltaic (PV) panels. Unlike conventional panels, which only…
9.57 million tonnes of PV panels are expected to reach their end-of-life (EOL) by 2050. It’s exciting to see the launching of large-scale PV development plans throughout the United States. As we develop these massive utility-scale solar projects, we must…
