Solar Panel Recycling Market SWOT Analysis by 2031
Solar panel recycling is the process of reusing or recycling solar panel waste once they have reached the end of their useful life cycle or have been damaged. The market study looked at three different types of solar panel recycling processes thermal, mechanical, and laser. Lead, cadmium, plastics, glass, and other heavy and toxic compounds or metals found in solar panel waste are damaging to the environment and human health. As a result, recycling solar panels rather than disposing of them in landfills is critical.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The progressive change of the energy industry from conventional to renewable fuels the growth of the worldwide solar panel recycling market. Furthermore, during the forecasted time frame, rising awareness of environmental degradation connected with solar panel waste is expected to boost the market. However, the absence of solar panel recycling infrastructure around the world, as well as lax laws on solar panel recycling, will limit the market's expansion during the projection period. Government measures to reduce carbon footprints and increased investment in renewable energy infrastructure, on the other hand, are expected to give lucrative growth prospects for leading players to maintain their market position in the future years.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 ON SOLAR PANEL RECYCLING MARKET
Lockdowns enforced in response to the COVID-19 epidemic resulted in a temporary halt to import and export, as well as manufacturing and processing activities in a variety of industries, lowering demand for power equipment and affected the solar (PV) inverter market. In the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2021, market growth slowed as a result of this. The PV inverter market, on the other hand, is likely to rebound by the end of 2021, as COVID-19 immunisation has begun in a number of economies throughout the world, which is expected to help the global scenario.

To comprehend the market dynamics for the nation, a number of growth variables, inhibitors, application areas, and current market trends are researched. The aforementioned elements aid in determining the country's overall market's growth potential.
- 3.3 Company Profile:
The “Table of Contents” is formulated by listing and analyzing more than 25 - 30 companies operating in the market ecosystem across geographies. However, we profile only 10 companies as a standard practice in our syndicate reports. These 10 companies comprise leading, emerging, and regional players. Nonetheless, our analysis is not restricted to the 10 listed companies, we also analyze other companies present in the market to develop a holistic view and understand the prevailing trends. The “Company Profiles” section in the report covers key facts, business description, products & services, financial information, SWOT analysis, and key developments. The financial information presented is extracted from the annual reports and official documents of the publicly listed companies. Upon collecting the information for the sections of respective companies, we verify them via various primary sources and then compile the data in respective company profiles. The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.
- 3.4 Developing Base Number:
Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.
- Data Triangulation and Final Review:
The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.
We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.
We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.
