Japan’s government has adopted a bill requiring mega solar operators to submit panel disposal plans. The regulation focuses on managing end-of-life solar panels and reducing landfill volumes. Operators must specify panel volumes, disposal timelines, and treatment methods. The bill also encourages recycling and material recovery from used panels. Japan expects solar panel waste to reach 500,000 tons by 2040. This projection represents nearly six times the current disposal volume. Authorities aim to strengthen waste management as solar installations expand nationwide.
