Independent power producer Greenbacker Renewable Energy Company has signed a long-term, exclusive partnership with solar recycling company Solarcycle to recycle decommissioned solar panels.
The deal provides Greenbacker, which has more than 975 megawatts of operating solar projects in its fleet, with a reliable recycling partner. Solarcycle, which is only in its second year of operation, gains a contracted volume of end-of-life panels that will help the company scale its recycling operations and build out a domestic supply chain for solar manufacturing and assembling. Solarcycle has been able to grow its operations through high-volume contracts, and it has deployed research and development to sell higher-purity materials back into the domestic supply chain.
