The adoption of solar energy in North America is accelerating due to government incentives, decreasing costs, and growing environmental awareness. As more solar panels are installed, the need for recycling them at the end of their lifecycle is becoming increasingly important. Governments in the US and Canada have introduced regulations to ensure the responsible disposal and recycling of solar panels. Additionally, the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has facilitated the cross-border transport of solar panels and recycled materials, fostering a more integrated solar panel waste disposal system across the region.

The countries researched in this region are: 

Key Countries – United States, Canada

Largest Revenue Generating Country: United States

Base Year: 2023 :: Study Period: 2020-2032 :: Projection Years: 2024-2032

United States dominates the regional market, gaining $39.37 million in 2023

  • Solar panels, primarily composed of materials like glass and valuable metals like silver and copper, have considerable recycling potential. By 2030, the global recoverable value of materials from decommissioned panels could reach $450 million, as per IRENA

  • The EPA is working on including solar panels in the ‘universal waste’ category, which would streamline their management and recycling processes.

  • Additionally, individual states like California have implemented specific policies to regulate the disposal and recycling of solar panels.

Market Forecast for Canada

The solar panel recycling market in Canada is gradually gaining traction as the adoption of renewable energy continues to grow. With the expected surge in solar energy installations, the country anticipates a significant volume of decommissioned panels. To address this, Canada has implemented initiatives aimed at developing a circular economy for solar energy components. For instance, the Electronic Products Recycling Association (EPRA) has extended its e-waste recycling programs in several provinces to include solar panels, ensuring they are properly processed and their materials recovered. Provinces like British Columbia and Alberta are particularly proactive, with regulations encouraging the recycling of solar components.

The market segmentation comprises technology, end-user, process, and shelf life. The technology section includes silicon-based, thin-film based, and other technologies.
