The circular economy is essential for the solar energy industry, focusing on the reuse and recycling of materials to significantly reduce environmental impact. By integrating these principles, devices can be designed for longevity and resource efficiency, reclaiming valuable materials from decommissioned components and minimizing waste. For that purposeinnovative product design is of vital importance, also considering the carbon footprint of the manufacturing. This approach creates a closed-loop system where materials are continuously repurposed, reducing the need for new raw materials and decreasing the carbon footprint. Overall, it enhances the sustainability and economic viability of renewable energy, ensuring solar power remains an environmentally friendly option for the future.
