15 : solar module recycling 
PV CYCLE was founded in July 2007 by companies in the photovoltaic industry, a
set up voluntary take-back and recycling program for old implement and thus the promise of the industry's overall sustainability. Thereby accepting responsibility for industrial solar panels along the entire value chain.
PV modules are designed to
produce more than 25 years clean, renewable energy . is the first major installations in the early nineties, but to comprehensive recycling of products at the end of their life cycle are probably still take 10 to 15 years.
Nevertheless, the PV industry has been working on it now, to create truly sustainable energy solutions that address the impacts on the environment in all stages of product life cycle - from raw materials to take back and recycling. Although the PV industry is very young, leading manufacturers rely on the concept of producer responsibility: We have joined together to establish a voluntary, industry-wide take-back and recycling program. We future recycling requirements now, and therefore can already offer a truly sustainable energy solution that helps to combat climate change.
With PV CYCLE wants the photovoltaic industry - taking into account environmental and economic criteria - Dispose of PV modules optimized and recycle.
