Sol Systems and SOLARCYCLE have formed a partnership with the aim of ensuring Sol Systems’ energy projects are sustainable throughout a solar panel’s lifecycle by addressing the challenge of recycling and reusing retired panels.
SOLARCYCLE technology extracts materials such as silver, silicon, copper, aluminum and glass, allowing the company to divert materials from landfills and enables the recovery of what it says is up to 95% of the value of recycled panels. Extracted materials are then refined and reintroduced into the domestic supply chain.
The collaboration has executed work orders on two projects. Earlier this year, the company says it partnered with SOLARCYCLE to recycle panels from a community solar array in Scottsbluff, Neb., following weather damage.
“What SOLARCYCLE can do is groundbreaking, and it aligns with Sol Systems’ dedication to sustainability and innovation, especially as solar installations rapidly increase and the need for better end-of-life solutions for solar panels becomes more urgent,” says Sol Systems’ Eugene Rhee.

As we’ve noted in the past, the idea of capturing CO2 from the atmosphere is completely unfeasible, since 99.96% of the air around is something other than CO2 (mostly nitrogen). However, there are environments that change this equation radically, cement plants being one of them, where the concentration of CO2 emissions is as high as 30% (versus .04%).
Now, this brings the subject of synthetic fuels into the realm of possibility. Sure, if you want to make gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel, you’ll need two other things: hydrogen (which can come from electrolyzing water), and a considerable amount of energy, as these processes are heavily endothermic, meaning that energy must be supplied from external sources.
The good news is that we have enormous amounts of off-peak wind and nuclear that are wasted every day. Please see: Doty WindFuels.
With each passing day, there are fewer and fewer American voters who believe the bullshit at left.
Is Trump working hard to stay out of prison? Enrich himself and his family? Of course.
Could be possibly care less about anything else? Obviously not.
What’s the thought process of people in the rest of the developed world when it comes to visiting the U.S.?
Conversely, would you or I want to visit some country with a deeply corrupt regime that is systematically committing atrocities all around the globe, and whose leader is lining his pockets?
I’m glad I don’t own a resort in New England that counts on a flow of visitors from Canada. If I were a Canadian, I’d be thinking I’d rather visit hell.
