SUNSET Renewable Asset Management Inc. Receives Canada Clean50 Top Project Award for Renewable Energy Waste Recycling

Sunset Renewable Asset Management Inc. Clean50 Top Project and Triple-Bottom Line Awards.

Sunset Renewable Asset Management Inc. has been named a recipient of a Canada Clean50 Top Project Award for its innovative Renewable Energy Waste Recycling initiative, recognizing its leadership in developing scalable solutions for responsible decommissioning, on-site recycling, and recovery of high-value materials from solar, wind, and battery assets as part of Canada’s clean economy.

These busted solar panels are an early example of a looming problem — and an opportunity

In a sprawling industrial building in Brooks, Alta., about two hours east of Calgary, is a former pheasant hatchery that's now stacked waist-high with thousands of dusty, damaged solar panels.

Dan Carrocci, who's worked in renewable energy construction for more than a decade, has long been troubled by the lack of end-of-life options for this infrastructure and is stockpiling the old panels in hopes of developing a commercially viable means of recycling them.
