Indian PV waste needs to develop appropriate quality standards
Time:2019-04-16   Clicks: 1096
    India-based consulting firm Bridge to India (BTI) has shown that India urgently needs to develop appropriate quality standards to [use] environmentally sustainable data [in] component production. “This will help India minimize the potential hazard of waste from waste components.”

BTI estimates that by 2050, the amount of waste from solar modules in India will be added to 1.8 million tons. At present, India has neither guiding nor the required operational infrastructure to ensure the recycling of component waste. There are no reclaim facilities for glass-containing solar panels in the country.

In contrast, the European Union has the Eco-Design Directive 2009, a tool to reduce the environmental impact of energy-related products throughout their life cycle.

BTI's general manager Vinay Rustagi showed that to make solar energy a true green energy, the entire industry needs to work together to proactively ensure a sustainable solar industry waste disposal program.

According to India's E-waste Management and Handling Rules 2011, most of the bidding documents hand over responsibility for handling and disposing of PV waste to developers.

BTI believes that the current recovery of solar modules is still not commercially attractive. The recovery costs in Europe and the United States are estimated at $250 to $300 per ton. Depending on the distance, you need to add 60-100% of the transportation cost. In contrast, the value of the recovered data is only about $45-130 per ton. Currently, countries, especially the European Union and the United States, are conducting various active tests to find a cost-effective way to ensure a higher rate of raw data recovery.

Earlier this month, the Ministry of New Energy and Renewable Energy of India proposed that solar developers be obliged to comply with the glass recovery procedures for photovoltaic panels.
