Solar Panel Waste: A Disposal Problem
24th December 2018
Solar panels create 300 times more toxic waste per unit of energy than do nuclear power plants. If solar and nuclear produce the same amount of electricity over the next 25 years that nuclear produced in 2016, and the wastes are stacked on football fields, the nuclear waste would reach the height of the Leaning Tower of Pisa (53 meters), while the solar waste would reach the height of two Mt. Everests (16 km).
UPDATE: If Solar Panels Are So Clean, Why Do They Produce So Much Toxic Waste?
