The recent rapid expansion of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) technology has catalyzed a transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy sources. The widespread adoption of PV technology has ushered in a new era of renewable energy production, significantly reducing carbon emissions. However, the rapid growth in PV installations has given rise to a pressing concern which is the responsible disposal and recycling of PV waste materials. This research paper explores the recycling and sustainable management of discarded PV materials. It delves into the challenges, innovative strategies, and broader implications of effective electronic waste recycling within the context of PV materials by highlighting the trends of waste in India through comparison with other parts of the world. The paper addresses the multifaceted challenges associated with PV waste management, including limited public awareness, evolving regulatory frameworks, and the development of efficient recycling technologies. It emphasizes the critical necessity for integrated waste management strategies that not only minimize environmental impacts but also social and socio-economic impacts. This study contributes to the global conversation on responsible consumption and production, aligning with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The transition to sustainable PV waste management is not only an environmental imperative; it is a critical step towards ensuring a cleaner, more resilient, and sustainable future. Therefore, this paper underscores the urgent need for comprehensive and sustainable waste management strategies that align with the principles of a circular economy. It emphasizes the importance of managing electronic waste (e-waste) concerning PV materials, offering insights and solutions that benefit both the environment and society at large.
