Recycle? Upcycle? What are the options?

mentioned the urgency for considering repowering to become a daily bread for many of us.

My thoughts are going a step further though. The growth of obsolete modules and other PV equipment will be as exponential as the industry itself. Despite I see more and more talks and initiatives related to this topic, I can´t resist to think about what the future will be like in 2030 and later on.

I don´t want to be the messenger of bad news. However! It might happen that we will be remembering the troubles with PET bottles with nostalgia, in comparison with the PV module disposal.

I am curious about your opinions.
