"Mega Watts to Mega Recycling" is an eye-opening deep dive into the hidden side of the clean energy revolution. Emilie Oxel O'Leary, a national leader in the solar industry and CEO of Green Clean Solar, pulls back the curtain on a pressing environmental crisis: the mounting waste generated by solar panels, wind turbines, and renewable infrastructure once they reach the end of their useful life.

But the problem goes far beyond just solar panels. This book explores the full scope of solar waste-damaged racking systems, broken inverters, corroded wiring, spent batteries, discarded packaging, and shipping materials-all of which are too often sent to landfills. As the pace of solar installations accelerates, so does the volume of this overlooked waste stream, threatening to undermine the very sustainability goals the industry was built on.

Drawing from her decades of experience in solar construction and decommissioning, Emilie combines insider knowledge, hard data, and real-life stories from the field to raise awareness and offer practical solutions. She makes the case for a circular approach to clean energy-one that includes proper recycling infrastructure, smarter design, and end-of-life planning from day one.

"Mega Watts to Mega Recycling" is a must-read for solar developers, environmentalists, policymakers, and anyone committed to a truly sustainable energy future. This is more than a wake-up call-it's a blueprint for the responsible evolution of renewable energy industry
