Enhancements to PV modules that enable extended service lifetimes significantly mitigate the impacts of potential burdens during the additional 10 years of plant operation.
In this work, the effect of extending the service lifetime of PV modules from the standard 30 years to 40 years on environmental impacts was investigated using life cycle assessment. The findings indicated substantial environmental benefits, especially in crucial categories such as global warming potential and mineral resource scarcity.
Contemporary PV modules come with a 30-year service lifetime performance warranty. Reduced performance as a result of degradation and failure means reduced service lifetime, and thus, higher environmental burden when evaluating life cycle impacts per unit of electricity generated.
Given that the manufacturing and disposal of PV modules entail considerable energy consumption and material use, extending modules service lifetime directly correlates with a reduction in the frequency of these energy-intensive processes.
In 2023, the solar photovoltaic sector in the EU and globally saw the prices of the panels plummet from ca. 0.20 EUR/W to less than 0.12 EUR/W. This unsustainable situation is weakening
