Please explain these terms. Are we talking only after you get the system installed and before you have to dump the system?
As I learn from reading about the manufacture of Solar panels, LiFePO batteries, and other parts of an electrical system, the discussion revolves around:
- raping the forests and land of 3rd world countries to extract the raw rare earth minerals.
- large amounts of energy to refine these minerals
- a manufacturing process in 3rd world countries that have little regard for human life
- Waste from these processes.
And that is just getting the system to you.
You enjoy the "FREE ENERGY" and great feeling of "BEING GREEN".
Then when the system needs to be replaced, the storage system and panels have little or no recycling value so they are dumped. There half life is something like 5K years in a disposal site. The site of course if like the Bangladesh dumps for used up ocean vessels...
