The solar boom sweeping the world holds both promiseâand peril. Although solar PV panels provide a revolution in energy production,âit is their end-of-life that poses a serious challenge. Thisâbook, Sustainable Management of Solar PV Panel Waste, addresses several aspects of this concern. It assesses the environmental degradation over the entireâlifecycle of solar panels, from manufacturing to disposal. Readers will encounter new waste management approaches, explore key policy frameworks, and learn about urbanâtechnologies capable of resource recovery. This book should be mandatory reading for researchers, policy-makers and industry professionals whoâwant to reduce the environmental impacts of solar energy and create a truly sustainable solar future.
