How to Start a Solar Panel Recycling Business

Solar panels are made of a variety of materials, such as glass, aluminum frames, cells (usually silicon), silver and some other auxiliary materials. The recycling process of solar panels involves a lot of expertise and has certain technical barriers. Therefore, in many countries, starting a solar panel recycling business and reusing the high-quality elements extracted from solar panels are widely welcomed projects.

How to start a solar panel recycling business?

Investing in a solar panel recycling plant has significant economic and social benefits, high returns, and is suitable for long-term investment. Therefore, to build a solar panel recycling plant is a wise choice. However, our professional engineers remind you that you must be fully prepared before starting this business. Here are some tips on this:

Selecting the site for a solar panel recycling plant

Location

First, the site should be far away from residential areas to avoid the noise, dust and exhaust gas generated affecting the residents. Solar panel recycling plant requires 380V three-phase AC power supply, so the electricity supply must be stable and reliable.

Water Sources

Second, it is best to have water sources nearby to prevent fires when machines are running, and make sure to fight fires fast.

Raw Material

Third, the site should be close to the raw material supply site to reduce transportation costs. It is best to choose a location where there is a sufficient supply of waste photovoltaic panels to ensure that the production process continues continuously.

Choosing the right recycling equipment

A PV panel recycling line consists of several main equipment: equipment for removing aluminum frames and glass, crushing equipment, screening equipment. Choosing them is the most important step. Only if you choose the right equipment, you will be able to set up your own PV panel recycling plant. For this reason, Sunrise is your best choice as a specialized supplier of e-waste recycling plants. Because it has many years of experience in equipment production and advanced technology to meet your requirements.

Regular training of employees

People may overlook these factors. However, this step is very important. There may not be much difference between manufacturers, but how they are operated and whether or not they are maintained can lead to product differences. As a manufacturer of e-waste recycling equipment, it is our responsibility to provide you with free training courses. And, we offer 24-hour online guidance for any questions you may have!

Why do you choose solar panel recycling business?

Profiting from it

With the popularity of photovoltaic power generation, the end-of-life volume of solar panels will increase in the future, and the demand for recycling will grow significantly, so that creates a good opportunity to utilize the recycling line to make money.

Eco-Friendly and Efficient

Recycling PV panels avoids the leakage of hazardous substances such as lead and cadmium; at the same time, recycling existing materials requires less energy than processing new materials, which reduces overall energy consumption.

Different processing capabilities

SUNRISE’s solar panel recycling production lines are available in different processing capacities to meet the needs of our customers. Common processing capacities include 200 kg/h, 500 kg/h, 1,000 kg/h and 2,000 kg/h, etc.
