Comstock Inc. and Comstock Metals LLC, a leader in the responsible recycling of end-of-life solar panels with the only certified, North American, zero-landfill solution, announced that all of the industry-scale facility precision equipment and unit operations have arrived and are assembled. Three of those unit operations have been commissioned and tested and are undergoing integration to date – the robotic loading arms, the Eddy system and the washing system. This represents significant progress toward the full commissioning, start-up and continuous operation of the 100,000 ton per year solar panel recycling production line.
“We are pleased to report that, as of last week, we completed the “tuning” of the entire glass-upgrading Eddy system, including full capacity stress-testing. The unit met and exceeded its quality and capacity performance requirements operating at full capacity levels and working towards delivering clean glass that meets or exceeds all the quality specifications communicated from our customers,” stated Corrado De Gasperis, chief executive officer of Comstock Inc.
Commissioning, and all aspects of integration, tuning and staged stress-testing will continue through July or August 2026, when continuous operations will commence. The first full month of operation will begin after that period.
