In August 2019, The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has issued a blueprint for the utilization, manufacture, disposal, and import of solar photovoltaic (PV) module and glass containing Antimony. Antimony is a chemical element that has been found to have hazardous effects on the environment. According to the MNRE, the management of PV modules needs to follow the cradle-to-grave life cycle assessment in four stages: component production, module manufacturing, module use, and end-of-life- use stage. The disposal should be done in an environmentally safe manner, and glass needs to be recycled following the principles of resource recovery, resource efficiency, and circular economy.
