However, the composition of solar glass varies, especially concerning antimony (Sb) content, depending on the production method. Antimony is used to enhance the performance of patterned solar glass but introduces environmental and health concerns, complicating recycling efforts.
Currently, the import of modules from outside the EU with variable antimony content drastically complicated recycling efforts of solar glass. Indeed, antimony poses environmental and health risks and can lead to undesirable interactions with the manufacturing process. To address this issue, ESIA members are calling for:
The U.S. could also implement a threshold for antimony levels in solar glass, gradually reducing the allowable amount over time. This would encourage manufacturers to phase out the use of antimony in their production processes and facilitate more straightforward recycling in U.S. facilities.
The MNRE has pointed out that the recycling facilities for solar panels with antimony containing glass (SPACG) at the end of life of solar panel is not yet available in the country.
