Solar Panel & Equipment Recycling in Kochi
Solar energy systems are becoming more common in Kochi, and old panels and equipment eventually need responsible disposal. Here is what to know.
Quick answer
Solar equipment is handled on a case-by-case basis — panels, inverters, charge controllers and solar batteries may be accepted depending on type and quantity. Contact us with the equipment details, condition and your location for a feasibility check.
- Solar panels contain glass, aluminium and silicon — never mix with general household waste.

- Solar inverters and string inverters

Important considerations
Solar panel recycling is a specialised process. Panels contain glass, aluminium, silicon and sometimes small amounts of hazardous materials. Not all recycling services handle solar panels the same way. Contact us with the panel type, quantity and your location, and we will confirm if pickup is feasible.
Solar inverter disposal
Solar inverters are electronic devices similar to other power electronics. They can often be recycled alongside general e-waste. Prepare them as you would any electronic device — disconnect, inspect for damage, and send photos.
