A systemic approach including product design, collaboration and regulation

The expansion of Solar energy is progressing rapidly. But how do we keep this new equipment in circulation?

Pamela Ong presents a systematic analysis of the solar panel supply chain. It covers product design and stakeholder collaboration as well as supply chain incentives and regulation. Pamela's talk is based on a new report from Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership, E.ON Group Innovation and Institute for Manufacturing Engage, that explores the challenges and circular solutions associated with the expected increase in end-of-life solar PV waste over the coming years.

This episode is part of the series about the CIRCULAZE Summit from November 2024.
