Malaviya Solar Energy Consultancy in Pune has an exclusive license from Germany’s LuxChemtech for a patented, eco-friendly, zero‑waste solar panel recycling process. It achieves over 98% recovery of metals, boosting the value of EPR certificates and making recycling economically viable. The technology, proven under the EU-funded PHOTORAMA project with a pilot line in Germany, uses water and organic chemicals to safely separate and reclaim materials, including silicon and precious metals. This move aligns with India’s 2030 renewable targets-up to 350 GWp of solar-and a looming waste challenge of about 19 million tonnes of panels, with silver potentially exceeding 10,000 tonnes. Malaviya plans to collaborate across glass, aluminum, e‑waste, and start-ups to scale responsible solar waste management.
