a higher state of energy to create electricity. Solar PV facilities consist of the following components. The Photovoltaic Cell A photovoltaic (PV) cell is made of silicone which acts as a semiconductor used to produce the photovoltaic effect. Individual PV cells are linked and placed behind a protective glass sheet to form a photovoltaic panel.
Abstract. The large-scale deployment of photovoltaics (PV) is a central pillar in decarbonizing energy systems and reaching climate goals. Although PV is inherently associated to environmental awareness, it is not immune to reputational risks nor exempt of a responsibility for transparency and sustainability leadership.
Techno-economic studies of photovoltaic solar cells recycling and reuse often do not take into account the impact of social factors. Walzberg et al. use an agent-based model to estimate the quantitative impact of behavioural choices on photovoltaic recycling efficacy.
Such practices can be used as benchmarks to advance the whole PV sector's sustainability performance and to drive overall sustainable change. SolarPower Europe has launched the Solar Sustainability Best Practices Benchmark, produced collaboratively by many solar industry experts active in SolarPower Europe's Sustainability Workstream.
Sustainability targets in accordance with SDG 12 were dened by Gervais et al. for the PV sector . A gap fi analysis highlighted a need for progress in 16 areas or sustainability strategies displayed in Table 1.
Perfor-mances as reported by PV manufacturers can be characterized by limited data transparency and lack of common assessment frameworks . In this paper, we review the sustainability challenges that lie ahead of the PV sector and provide insights on how to improve existing shortcomings.
Most top tier PV module manufacturers already publish sustainability or corporate social responsibility reports in a regular way and use the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards on a voluntary basis.
