European Solar Panel Recycling Association

The European Solar Panel Recycling Association (ESPR) is a group that brings together companies and organizations dedicated to properly recycling solar panels once they are no longer useful. As solar panels have a limited lifespan, recycling helps recover valuable materials like copper, silicon, and rare metals, reducing waste and environmental impact. The association promotes best practices, develops recycling standards, and advocates for policies that support sustainable solar energy use. By ensuring proper disposal, ESPR helps maximize resource efficiency and protect the environment, contributing to a circular economy in the renewable energy sector.
