Supporting Communities and Reducing Landfill Waste
Commercial Solar Panel Recycling (CSPR), based in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, has announced a special offer to help dispose of solar panels damaged by recent hurricanes. The service targets homeowners and businesses in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, aiming to assist with recycling broken panels and minimizing landfill waste. This initiative supports recovery efforts while encouraging sustainable disposal practices.
Co-founder Glenn Laga highlighted the urgent need for help in the wake of the hurricanes, which impacted solar installations across residential and commercial sectors. CSPR’s goal is to ease the recovery process for communities while ensuring that damaged panels are responsibly recycled, rather than contributing to growing landfill problems.
CSPR’s Expansion and Future Recycling Plans
Advancing Long-Term Solutions in Solar Panel Recycling
CSPR has a long-term strategy to enhance solar panel recycling efforts. The company is expanding its facilities to process more solar panels while working to provide responsible solutions for panel end-of-life management. In mid-November, CSPR will present its plans at the SEIA’s RE+ Florida trade show, where they will discuss methods for efficiently recycling solar panels and other glass materials.
Operating in Phillipsburg, New Jersey, and Atwater, California, CSPR is adding new sites in Kentucky, Texas, and Minnesota. The expansion will increase the company’s capacity to recycle damaged panels, supporting the growing demand for environmentally conscious practices in the renewable energy industry.
Looking Toward a Circular Economy
Recycling Glass and Building a Sustainable Future
As part of its sustainability push, CSPR also plans to process laminated glass, including automobile windshields, with the goal of creating cullet (recycled glass). This cullet will be used in the solar industry and other manufacturing sectors, such as paint and abrasives. By integrating glass recycling into its business model, CSPR aims to close the loop on material waste, advancing a circular economy in the renewable energy industry. This move highlights the increasing need for sustainable recycling solutions as the renewable energy sector continues to grow.
