Solar PV Module Recycling — Why It''s Important
With an embodied energy payback estimated at approximately two years, a rooftop PV array truly does provide clean, renewable energy throughout the vast majority of its expected 20-30 year life span. Even though 25 years is long enough to make investors happy, in environmental terms, it''s a very short period of time.
