EcoSolar project
It aims to do this by increasing resource efficiency by reusing materials within the production, and through new intended uses of individual components after the end of their service life. EcoSolar wants to demonstrate that during the service life of a photovoltaic system, individual modules can be monitored, in order to identify defective modules early and to repair or replace them, and in doing so increase the total energy yield. bifa Umweltinstitut examines the existing material flows with regard to recovery and reuse possibilities of the main products and byproducts within the photovoltaic industry or in other areas of industry. In addition, the bifa Umweltinstitut analyses the project progress with regard to resource efficiency, ecological effect, material and energy consumption.
