Strategic Lifecycle Management
The Solar PV Recycling Project Mekong represents the first phase in a broader effort to develop scalable and sustainable solutions for solar panel lifecycle management. Building on current progress, the project envisions a multi-phase pathway toward regional and global implementation.
Phase 1
Research & Prototype Development
Field research and stakeholder engagement across three countries
Development of a lab-scale solar panel recycling prototype
Capacity building and knowledge sharing
Establishment of a regional data foundation
Phase 2
Pilot Implementation
Deployment of pilot-scale recycling systems
Testing and validation under real operational conditions
Expansion of stakeholder engagement and partnerships
Integration of data systems for lifecycle monitoring
Phase 3
Industrial Scale & Regional Expansion
Development of industrial-scale recycling facilities
Expansion across Mekong countries and ASEAN region
Strengthening of policy frameworks and regulatory support
Creation of sustainable business and operational models
Phase 4
Digital Platform & Global Integration
Development of a comprehensive solar PV lifecycle tracking platform
Integration of data across regions and stakeholders
Expansion toward global coverage and collaboration
Support for ESG reporting, policy, and investment decision-making
