Dubbo Regional, NSW reuses solar panels destined for the landfill during Second Life Solar Project
Dubbo Regional, NSW Second Life Solar Project Panel Reuse
Project partners Blue Tribe and Solar Professionals installed an 8kW system at the Whylandra Waste and Recycling Centre. The first-in-state installation consists of used but functional solar panels that would otherwise head to the landfill. Council officials and the NSW Office of Energy and Climate Change are evaluating how solar panel diversion could power residential and commercial buildings. The state-funded pilot will also provide the blueprint for similar projects in other councils.
