   Usually, solar panels are given a lifespan of 25–30 years before they get decommissioned. [178] The International Renewable Energy Agency estimated that the amount of solar panel electronic waste generated in 2016 was 43,500–250,000 metric tons. This number is estimated to increase substantially by 2030, reaching an estimated waste volume ...
