JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (Shanghai, China) on September 26th,
2016 announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, JinkoSolar (U.S.)
Inc., in partnership with the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA)
and a coalition of other solar photovoltaic (PV) companies, has
successfully launched the first PV recycling program in the United
States, which includes a network of cost-effective recyclers that can
responsibly dispose of decommissioned PV modules.
While JinkoSolar modules are expected to last at
least 25 years, PV system owners now have dedicated resources to help
aid in responsible disposal of modules once they reach the end of their
life cycle.
JinkoSolar PV modules recently passed toxicity
characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) tests. Products that do not
leach toxic materials at levels exceeding regulatory limits are termed
TCLP compliant. TCLP compliant JinkoSolar PV modules will give system
owners more time and flexibility to dispose of the modules.
“By passing TCLP tests and helping start this
recycling framework, JinkoSolar has shown that it is a true leader in
environmental responsibility,” said Nigel Cockroft, General Manager of
JinkoSolar (U.S.) Inc.
