A large portion of a two-year-old 889.2 kW system and the roof had been broken by the Class 4 storm. Decom Photo voltaic is testing all gear to find out what could be reused and what should be correctly recycled. All gear in working situation will then be eliminated and saved for the restore work to happen. All broken modules will probably be recycled with a SEIA-certified recycler and all broken racking, inverters and balance-of-system gear will probably be processed by means of native recyclers.
“When individuals examine photo voltaic decommissioning, they usually assume that the gear is being eliminated and thrown out. We’re centered on ensuring that each one working gear stays in operation. We’re dedicated to holding photo voltaic modules out of landfills, whatever the purpose they have to be eliminated,” stated Stephen Burns, co-founder of Decom Photo voltaic.
By holding this working gear in operation, it’s estimated to offset sufficient vitality to energy 125 properties per yr or protect 6.7 acres of U.S. forests in a single yr. Decom Photo voltaic is partnered with One Tree Planted, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit devoted to international reforestation, and for this undertaking will donate 2,340 timber to be planted on its consumer’s behalf.
