Recycling and repurposing for a sustainable future

Advancing the circular economy

We contribute to the circular economy by recycling materials and repurposing valuable resources. Through innovative partnerships and sustainable practices, we are supporting resilient domestic supply chains, energy security and job creation.

Solar panel recycling

We work with partners and customers to responsibly recycle and repurpose damaged or retired solar panels. This approach keeps valuable materials like glass, silicon, and aluminum in use, reducing waste, extending the lifecycle of energy infrastructure, and supporting U.S.-based processing and energy job creation.

12,500+ panels recycled

Solar panels recycled with SOLARCYCLE since 2023.

95% of recycled materials recovered

Recycling technology extracts high-value materials from retired or damaged solar panels.

400 metric tons of CO₂e emissions avoided

By diverting panels landfills we have avoided the equivalent of over 400 metric tons of carbon dioxide-equivalent emissions, comparable to 1 million miles driven by an average gasoline-powered car.

Waste management

 We are exploring ways to recover and repurpose materials such as gypsum and other byproducts across the lifecycle of our projects. These initiatives create sustainable reuse pathways for energy materials, helping to reduce waste and find new value in materials that would otherwise be discarded.
