Over the last few years there has been a growing trend towards using solar electricity as an alternative source of energy. In order to meet the world's projected energy needs, PV panel technology is a major alternative to fossil fuels. Due to the increase in production, PV panels with a lifetime of between 25 and 30 years are potential for photo-voltaic waste over the next few years. The environmental damage caused by PV panels is significantly reduced when they are recycled. The recycling also contributes to the recovery of materials, some of which are rare in nature. The structure of the components that make up this paper. From 2050 onwards, the estimated PV waste projections for the world have been analyzed.
