The rapid growth of renewable energy technologies (RETs) such as solar, wind, and batteries has revolutionized the energy landscape. However, the environmental benefits of these technologies can be compromised by the challenges of resource depletion, material scarcity, and waste generation. Recycling of materials used in renewable energy systems offers a promising solution to address these issues while enhancing sustainability. This paper explores the key materials used in renewable energy technologies, their recycling potential, and the challenges and opportunities involved in recycling these materials. A review of current recycling techniques and policies is provided, highlighting recent advancements and future prospects for improving the recyclability of renewable energy technologies.
