As a chemist, I know what the chemical composition of solar cells is, and every one is highly valuable. Virtually pure silicon for the most part. Prime material for recycling compared to production from raw material. And the aluminum of the frames is already being recycled on a wide scale.
And a quick Google search quickly turns up several recyclers. <> Try again...........

Well, homeowners with solar panels are faced with $12 - 20 PER PANEL to recycle them. Nowhere do I see any reference to reimbursing the homeowner for his recycled materials. I didn’t find any consumer based recyclers who purchased used panels from homeowners to recycle. You claim ‘... every one is highly valuable”, but homeowners have to pay to dispose. Why is that, do you suppose?
I look forward to any recommendations you might have.
