Solar Products EPR

Supporting the responsible collection, recovery, recycling, and environmentally sound management of end-of-life solar products across Sri Lanka.

Solar Panels

What is Solar Energy?

Solar energy is renewable energy generated by converting sunlight into electricity using photovoltaic (PV) panels. Solar systems typically include solar panels, inverters, batteries, charge controllers, cables, and mounting structures that work together to provide clean and sustainable power.

As solar adoption continues to grow across Sri Lanka, managing these products responsibly at the end of their useful life is becoming increasingly important.

Environmental Impact

Environmental Impact

Although solar energy is environmentally friendly during operation, discarded solar panels and related equipment can become electronic waste if they are not properly collected and recycled.

Solar products contain valuable materials such as glass, aluminium, silicon, and copper, as well as small quantities of hazardous substances. Proper EPR systems ensure these materials are recovered safely, reducing landfill waste, preventing pollution, and supporting Sri Lanka's circular economy.

Supporting a Sustainable Solar Future

Solar energy is one of the fastest-growing renewable energy sources in Sri Lanka. As the number of solar installations increases, so does the need for responsible management of solar panels, inverters, batteries, cables, and other system components once they reach the end of their useful life.

Solar Products Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) ensures that producers, importers, and brand owners take responsibility for the collection, transportation, recycling, recovery, and environmentally sound disposal of end-of-life solar equipment.

Our goal is to build a nationwide recovery system that supports renewable energy while preventing solar waste from becoming an environmental burden.
