Assessment of constraints in the European Union photovoltaics circular supply chain for enhanced circularity

Key Points

• Enhanced circularity is hindered by significant constraints in the supply chain for photovoltaics, impacting sustainability.
• The analysis identified key challenges, such as resource management and regulatory issues, that affect circular practices in the industry.
• Assessment of existing supply chain practices reveals a lack of integration and collaboration among stakeholders in the photovoltaic sector.
• The findings suggest that addressing these constraints can lead to improved sustainability outcomes and a more effective circular supply chain.
