6 FAQs about [National photovoltaic reform delisted 2 panels]
How many GW DC of photovoltaics are installed in 2023?
The International Energy Agency (IEA) reported that in 2023, 407–446 gigawatts direct current (GW dc) of photovoltaics (PV) was installed globally, bringing cumulative PV installs to 1.6 terawatts direct current (TW dc). China continues to dominate the global market, representing ~60% of 2023 installs, up 120% year-over-year (y/y).
Why is reshoring silicon photovoltaic manufacturing back to the United States?
Reshoring silicon photovoltaic manufacturing back to the U.S. improves domestic competitiveness, advances decarbonization goals, and contributes to mitigating climate change.
Will repowering increase EOL PV module projections?
In terms of repowering alone, recent trends suggest that commercial- and utility-scale repowering may become more prevalent in the solar industry, which could increase EoL PV module projections (Balfour 2017; NREL 2019).
Should c-Si solar panels be produced domestically?
Manufacturing c-Si PV panels is attractive to pursue domestically as reshored production demonstrates many more benefits. The domestic production of solar products also aids in building broader coalitions and offers possible spillover benefits for climate policy.
Will Rhode Island create a photovoltaic module stewardship and Takeback program?
Rhode Island has proposed a bill that, if enacted, would create a Photovoltaic Module Stewardship and Takeback Program. In addition, we identified 15 historical state bills that were proposed and failed since 2014 that addressed EoL PV modules.
Are decommissioned PV modules destined for recycling solid waste?
Anecdotal evidence suggests there is a perception that regulators in New Jersey and Arizona may also presume decommissioned PV modules destined for recycling are not only solid waste, but hazardous solid waste (NREL 2019; CPUC 2019; John Martorano, Magnum Computer Recycling, telephone conference July 31, 2019).
