The latest APOLLO newsletter brings an overview of recent scientific progress, event participation, new deliverables, and activities shaping our work on circular PV recycling and sustainable solar technologies.

APOLLO has defined a concept for a digital product passport for PV modules and a PV-focused online marketplace, laying the groundwork for transparent, traceable and circular solar value chains.

APOLLO supports Open Science and Open Access by sharing its publicly available deliverables, publications, and research materials through a dedicated Zenodo community page.

Recent APOLLO deliverables highlight progress in securing PV waste sources, improving mechanical and chemical recycling routes, and developing methods for high-purity material recovery.

APOLLO’s research on advanced electrochemical strategies for PV recycling was featured at the prestigious Electrochemical Society Meeting in Chicago.

APOLLO uses data to give solar panels a second life.

APOLLO will join two key events this October — TechBlick’s Perovskite Connect in Berlin and MATSUS Fall 2025 in Valencia — showcasing progress in sustainable PV innovation.

The APOLLO project will be represented at PV Days 2025, taking place on 12–13 November in Halle (Saale), Germany.

The APOLLO project was represented by partners from Türkiye and Norway at the EU PVSEC 2025 in Bilbao.

On 24 June 2025, APOLLO was featured in EDP’s R&D Session, where Peter Henatsch (Fraunhofer CSP) presented the project’s proactive approach to PV module recycling and circular solar solutions.

Find APOLLO at the PKS Network booth during EU PVSEC 2025 in Bilbao (22–26 September) and explore our vision for circular photovoltaics.

Researchers introduced a new testing method and greener solvents to boost the reliability of perovskite solar cells.

Swansea University showcased advances in perovskite photovoltaics and circular energy at two major 2025 events, joining forces with Solaveni GmbH at FuturePV.

At Portugal’s leading materials conference, APOLLO’s partners from IPN shared key results on their research.
