About ERALECS
Pioneering sustainable recycling solutions for the renewable energy industry. Our mission is to create a circular economy for solar and clean energy technologies.
Our Story
The Beginning of a Necessary Change
The rapid expansion of the solar industry has transformed the global energy landscape. Over the past two decades, millions of photovoltaic panels have been installed across Europe, helping accelerate the transition toward clean and renewable energy.
However, as the industry continues to grow, a new challenge is emerging — the responsible management of photovoltaic modules at the end of their lifecycle.
Damaged panels, manufacturing defects, transportation losses, and system upgrades are generating increasing volumes of solar equipment that require proper and compliant handling.
Despite this growing need, the infrastructure for managing solar panel waste remains fragmented and insufficient.
This is where ERALECS was born.
ERALECS was created to address this challenge by providing reliable, compliant, and sustainable recycling solutions for end-of-life solar panels. Our mission is to support the renewable energy industry by ensuring that valuable materials are recovered, responsibly processed, and returned to the manufacturing supply chain.
Our Mission
Building a Circular Future for Solar Energy
ERALECS was founded with a clear vision: to support the renewable energy sector by enabling efficient and responsible management of photovoltaic equipment at the end of its lifecycle.Our goal is to connect asset owners, EPC contractors, O&M providers, and recycling facilities through a coordinated operational network that ensures responsible handling of solar equipment from collection to recycling.Through this network, ERALECS enables:
- Responsible collection of end-of-life photovoltaic panels
- Optimized logistics across multiple operational locations
- Certified recycling through specialized facilities
- Full regulatory compliance with environmental standards
Who We Are
Growing Operational Ecosystem
From the beginning, our focus has been on building a flexible operational network capable of supporting photovoltaic waste management across multiple European markets.Through collaboration with logistics partners and specialized recycling facilities, ERALECS manages photovoltaic waste streams across a growing number of countries.Our operational approach is guided by three core principles:
Traceability
Ensuring transparent tracking of photovoltaic materials throughout the entire recycling process.
Efficiency
Optimizing logistics and recycling pathways to reduce operational costs and minimize environmental impact.
Compliance
Aligning operations with European environmental regulations and recognized waste management standards.
Looking Forward
The future of solar lifecycle management
These core values guide everything we do and shape our commitment to our clients, our community, and our planet.
Supporting the Next Phase of Solar Growth
- By 2030, Europe is expected to face significantly larger volumes of photovoltaic waste as early solar installations begin to reach the end of their operational lifespan.
- Our mission is to contribute to a renewable energy sector that is not only clean in energy production but also responsible throughout the entire lifecycle of its technologies.
- ERALECS aims to be part of the infrastructure that supports this transition.
Our Commitment
Sustainability beyond energy production
We believe that sustainability does not end when energy is produced. It continues through how materials are managed, recovered, and reintegrated into the global supply chain.
ERALECS is committed to helping build that future.
Leadership
ERALECS is led by a team combining industry experience in renewable energy, project operations, and circular economy initiatives. Our leadership focuses on building practical solutions that support the renewable energy sector while ensuring responsible management of photovoltaic equipment throughout its lifecycle.
