Nobody wants to talk about how to dispose of all the spent batteries in a few years. Even now, there is a real problem with what to do with worn out solar panels. Environmental nuts are ruining this country, but that is their goal.
“Nobody wants to talk about how to dispose of all the spent batteries in a few years.”
That is because they are recycled!
Don’t forget the environmental impact of worn out wind turbines.
Not to mention thousands of old wind turbine blades.
There is no good way to dispose of the solar panels or the wind blades. Landfills for both.
I have a solution for spent solar panels.
Escort some B52’s over Iran and have the air force drop them on Iran from 10,000 feet.
If thats not good, drop them into a volcano in Hawaii. Recycled in a few seconds.
Problem: “how to dispose of all the spent batteries.”
Observation of problem: Toyota mechanics at my local shop have a stack of Prius batteries in the back of the shop, since the mechanics don’t know what to do with them and conclude they are toxic.
Solution: plasma recyclers. They recycle everything, including spent uranium fuel and car batteries.
