Development of recycling of photovoltaic systems from the point of view of prolonging the total service life of photovoltaic modules and circular energy

摘要

The work set itself the task of analyzing and evaluating the extension of the overall service life of photovoltaic systems in relation to the need for quality recycling or the possibility of secondary reuse.Although today all components of photovoltaic systems are not balanced in terms of expected life,the future goal of designers of these systems will be to create a comprehensive long-life system,including hybrid inverters and batteries.Today's measurement results showed that the expected service life of the modules has been extended from the original 20 years to the current 30-35 years.The main increase in time and volume of recycling is postponed at least until the period from 2045 to 2050.This is matched by a number of gradually declining patents and new technologies for the processing of obsolete photovoltaic modules,including newly launched pilot projects focused on recycling.
