Solar panels are built to last 25 years or more in all kinds of weather. But the sticky polymer is hard to separate from the silicon cells at the end of a solar panel’s life, making recycling the materials more difficult. National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) in Golden, Colorado say they’ve found a better way to seal solar modules.
