The session will highlight the importance of creating a sustainable and circular solar industry in Europe, with a particular focus on restoring the
value chain for PV. With the increasing demand for renewable energy sources, it is crucial to consider the entire life cycle of PV systems, from
raw material extraction to end-of-life management. The session will explore how to integrate circularity principles right from the beginning of the PV value chain.
