Image: Goldi Solar Enabling a Circular Economy in India’s Solar Industry: Assessing the Solar Waste Quantum About Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) is the nodal Ministry of the Government of India for all matters relating to new and renewable energy. [...] The sudden increase in the price of oil, uncertainties associated with its supply and the adverse impact on the balance of payments position led to the establishment of the Commission for Additional Sources of Energy in the Department of Science & Technology in March 1981. [...] 6 Enabling a Circular Economy in India’s Solar Industry: Assessing the Solar Waste Quantum 2.2 Objective • granular spatial distribution of the waste at the state level The study bridges the information gap for India-specific solar waste estimates by developing a comprehensive, • delineation of the contribution of various waste coefficient-based model for solar waste estimation from streams (insta. [...] Enabling a Circular Economy in India’s Solar Industry: Assessing the Solar Waste Quantum 9 Calculating the EoL of modules Table 1 Coefficients used in the analysis for different The EoL of the capacity is calculated by taking module solar waste streams performance at the beginning as 100 per cent, module Waste stream Coefficient symbols Coefficient values performance at the beginning of a year as. [...] The waste the range of 99 kt); however, the majority of the waste estimation model proposed here can be used for the will likely be generated from the capacities deployed identification of the locations for the development of between 2024 and 2030.
