☀️☀️GOOD NEWS! The SRI LANKAN GOVT. have asked SOLAR FULL CYCLE to set up a Panel Recycling Facility for Sri Lanka!☀️☀️
.
Pioneers in the field with the FIRST PV recycling entity with full backing of the Government!
.
Extract from CEO, Government Authority 21st April below
🇱🇰✨
At this moment exactly 2 years ago, The $SPE token was launched. 100x within 24 hours, 600x to ATH within 12 days. We have only expanded operations since then.
We continue to work day and night preparing for the next bull run and beyond.

EU expects renewables to drive 45% of its energy by 2030, and move away from Russian oil.♻️

EU plans to double solar generation and reach 600 GW by 2030. Overall EU budget €210 billion. This makes solar the biggest electricity source of the bloc✨
- Sri Lanka has no fuel, inadequate food and medical supplies. Critical medical surgeries are being cancelled.
- Daily power blackouts taking place for long hours, with wide scale protests by common citizens..
☀️SFC Eyes New Recycling Processes to extract Silicon and Lead from end-of-life PV panels☀️
.
.
♻️ While SFC is consolidating tying up solar assets for recycling, it’s eyeing level 2 operations that could potentially extract precious metals: Silver and Lead.
This activity is reaching maturity flanked by 🇩🇪 German research. With natural resources being used up by humankind so fast, only a Circular Economy can save the day and make technologies like solar PV, truly green.♻️

☀️East Africa: While solar is used for many remote locations with potential for huge GW capacities, the recycling policies Kenya, Uganda so on are yet to firmly evolve
☀️ USA: Only about 10% of panels are recycled- it isn't mandated by federal regulations & recycling the devices is currently much more expensive than just discarding them. But the materials in solar panels coming offline each year could be worth an estimated $2 billion by 2050
☀️ England: All solar panel importers in the UK must adhere to the Producer Compliance Scheme under EU, meaning their panels should be collected and recycled by panel installer
5. South Africa: In 2016,🇿🇦had 1,329 MW of installed solar power capacity. Installed capacity is expected to reach 8,400 MW by 2030. But South Africa is yet to see a big demand for solar panel recycling. 🇿🇦will add an extra 5.7GW of solar power to its grid by 2030

4. China: Experts say that millions of aging panels could hv significant environmental impacts — especially since 🇨🇳 doesn’t hv specific regulations on solar panel recycling. IRENA predicted that by 2050, about 20 million tons of PV panel waste could be accumulated in China.
