🌞 Summer reads: Recycling photovoltaic modules for the green future🌱 We are excited to share an insightful interview with our project partner Dr. Sylke Meyer, Group Leader of "Materials Analysis" at the Fraunhofer Center for Silicon Photovoltaics CSP, featured in K-Mag. In this interview, Dr. Meyer explains the advanced recycling processes being used in the RETRIEVE project to improve the recycling of photovoltaic modules. Why is this important? 🤔 Recycling photovoltaic modules not only helps in managing waste but also recovers valuable materials that can be reused, reducing the environmental impact and supporting the circular economy.

🌍 The Future of Solar Energy: Addressing the Recycling Challenge ♻️ As solar energy adoption grows globally, the challenge of recycling decommissioned solar panels is becoming increasingly critical. These panels, composed of complex materials such as silicon, metals, and plastics, present significant recycling challenges. Unfortunately, the current infrastructure is limited, and recycling methods remain costly, which often deters investment in this essential area. Regulatory inconsistencies and inadequate collection systems further complicate the issue, resulting in many panels ending up in landfills. However, the industry is rising to the occasion with innovative solutions. Advances in crushing technology are making it easier to efficiently separate valuable materials from panels, while breakthroughs in chemical engineering, like hydrometallurgy, are enhancing the recovery of precious metals. Improving collection systems and implementing standardized regulations, including Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) policies, are crucial steps toward making solar panel recycling more viable. Designing panels with recyclability in mind and raising public awareness about proper disposal practices are also key to advancing sustainable recycling outcomes. By tackling these challenges with innovative strategies, the solar industry can pave the way for a future where sustainability is at the core of every solar panel's lifecycle. Let's work together to ensure a greener, more sustainable energy future. 🌞 #SolarEnergy #Sustainability #Recycling #CleanEnergy #GreenTech

After working on the reduction of scope1 and 2 GHG emission, we now look at scope 3. That is much more challenging!

I am honored to open the session with a more commercial view on circular economy and how SAP enables enterprises to build the conjunction of NFD and FD

𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐝, 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐍𝐂𝐀 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 At Next-Gen, sustainability is central to our commitment to responsible innovation. As the world shifts towards cleaner energy solutions, the role of sustainable materials in driving this transition is more important than ever. Our advanced NCA material, designed for use in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles (EVs), digital devices, and energy storage systems, is made from critical minerals such as nickel, cobalt, and aluminium. These materials are valued not only for their energy efficiency and performance but are also fully recyclable. When batteries reach the end of their lifecycle, these materials can be recovered, processed, and reused, reducing waste and minimising the environmental impact of battery disposal. This circular approach helps create new batteries and supports other industrial applications, promoting a more resource-efficient economy. As we work towards becoming a leader in NCA material manufacturing in Australia, our commitment goes beyond performance improvements to advancing environmental sustainability. Through NCA material innovation, we aim to contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future, in line with the global transition to renewable energy solutions. #NextGen #NCA #CathodeMaterial #CathodeBatteryTechnology #BatteryTechnology #EnergyTechnology #CleanTechnology #Innovation #AustralianOwned #RecyclableMaterials #Sustainability #SustainableManufacturing #GreenTechnology

eMethanol: The Sustainable Path Forward 🌱🔋🌟 Introducing **eMethanol**, the innovative synthetic gasoline crafted from CO2 and hydrogen. Boasting an impressive **99% purity**, it promises cleaner combustion and superior performance. It's a forward-thinking solution for reducing our carbon footprint, utilizing CO2 extracted directly from the atmosphere. What makes eMethanol unique? Its seamless integration with existing engines—**no modifications needed**—and the ability to leverage current fuel infrastructure for distribution. While electric vehicles (EVs) grapple with their environmental impact, eMethanol stands out as a viable, sustainable alternative. 🔄🚗 However, EVs aren't without their challenges. They're associated with indirect pollution sources, including the energy used for electricity generation and the environmental cost of battery production and disposal. In some cases, the **total environmental impact** of EVs may surpass that of traditional cars. 🏭🔋 eMethanol offers a practical path to greener roads, bridging the gap between current practices and a sustainable future. The primary obstacle remains its production cost, making it a premium choice for now. As we strive for emission reduction, eMethanol represents our commitment to innovation and environmental stewardship. What are your thoughts on eMethanol's role in our eco-conscious journey? Let's discuss! 🌍🚗💡 David Strittmatter Amol Heda Steve Olver #greenTechnology #innovation
