How to Recycle Solar Panel in India

On 5th March, 2025 our customer from India, Mr. Ken inquired us about how to recycle solar panel. He told us “The Indian government has gradually improved relevant regulations in recent years. According to the Indian Ministry of Environment and Forests, waste solar panels are classified as electronic waste and are regulated by the Electronic Waste Management Rules. These rules require solar panel manufacturers, importers and sellers to take responsibility for recycling and processing waste products.” For this, he hoped we can give him a solution to deal with waste photovoltaic panels. The following are the specific details of this case:

Can you send us the proposal of equipment for recycling solar panels?

Because the budget limited for photovoltaic panels after disassembly disposal, the India customer planned to buy only double shafts shredder, hammer mill, circular vibrating screener,  gravity separator and electrostatic separator. Within $100,000. For 10 hour per day working, we recommend the e-waste recycling machines with 1 t/h capacity as follows.

Shredder and crusher

Usually, double shafts shredder processes solar panels into 3-5cm. And hammer mill can further crusher them into 20 mesh. Then for 1000kg/h capacity, YS-120 double shafts shredder and YS-55 hammer mill. (This parameter is for reference only)

For 1 t/h solar panel after disassembly recycling, circular vibrating screener, gravity separator and electrostatic separator can not only meet your capacity requirement, but also help you recycle high quality metals and silicon.

How large an area required for the 1 t/h solar panel recycling line?

In addition, the Indian client asked about area required for the 1 t/h solar panel recycling line. He want to know is it accommodated in a factory with 60 m length, 15 m width? The answer is yes. In general, all the belt conveyor have 20 degree slop angle, the whole line height should be 4-6 m, the width and length is ok. Here, YUSHUNXIN will offer you customized photovoltaic panels disposal plan according to your factory area.

Tips: What is the policy of solar panel recycling in India?

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)

Producers and importers must ensure that their products are properly recycled and disposed of after the end of their service life. They can achieve this goal by establishing their own recycling system or cooperating with third-party recycling agencies.

Recycling targets

The government has set recycling targets that increase year by year, requiring companies to recycle a certain proportion of waste solar panels within a certain period of time. So this measure is intended to encourage companies to actively invest in the research and development and application of recycling technology.

Environmental standards

Strict environmental standards must be followed during the recycling process to ensure that hazardous substances are safely handled and avoid harm to the environment and human health.

Public awareness

The government also uses publicity and education activities to raise public awareness of the importance of solar panel recycling and encourage consumers to actively participate in recycling activities.

Although India’s solar panel recycling policy has made some progress, it still faces some challenges in practice. For example, the cost of recycling technology is high, the recycling infrastructure is not yet perfect, and the public’s awareness of recycling is insufficient. However, these challenges also bring huge market opportunities for related companies.
