Abstract

Indonesia is a tropical country where the equator passes and the sun tends to shine longer than other countries. Solar energy is one of the sources of energy that Indonesia is currently developing. Thus, solar energy has considerable potential to be developed in Indonesia. According to the Institute for Essential Service Reform (2021), the potential for solar power in Indonesia reaches 207,898GW using 4.34% to 24.43% of the total land area. The Photovoltaic (PV) Module and Inverter are the two primary parts of a PV system. PV Modules are anticipated to last 25 to 30 years, while Inverters are anticipated to last 10 to 15 years. PV Modules and Inverters are not designed with reuse in mind when entering the end of life of the product, therefore, some of the materials used to produce PV Modules and Inverters will be discarded because they cannot be reused. Indonesia will produce a significant amount of electronic waste due to the lifespan of a PV system. This study was conducted based on examining information from papers, journals, research reports. This research will discuss the policy, regulation, the projection of Solar PV waste in Indonesia in the future and classify the different kinds of hazardous waste in PV systems.
