Renewable Electricity Industry Analysis
Industry Statistics
Growth Drivers
• Utility and C&I decarbonization mandates\n• Storage attachment and grid‑service revenues\n• IRA incentives and state procurement standards\n• Technology shifts (tandem/perovskites, trackers) improving LCOE
Industry Overview
The U.S.-traded solar value chain exhibits a widening gap between sustainability marketing and verifiable environmental performance. Independent analyses point to lifecycle emissions that may be materially underreported, weak recycling infrastructure (≈10% of U.S. panels recycled), and uneven Scope 3 disclosure. Companies with transparent programs (e.g., verifiable take-back and recycling, third‑party supply‑chain audits) show more resilient market performance than peers relying on unsubstantiated claims.
Key Characteristics
• Large divergence between ESG ratings and on‑the‑ground performance\n• Lifecycle emissions often exclude silicon mining, waste handling, and grid intensity\n• Recycling economics unfavorable versus landfill absent mandates\n• High supply‑chain concentration risk in polysilicon\n• Markets increasingly price regulatory and reputational risk
ESG Considerations
• Supply chain: elevated forced‑labor exposure in polysilicon (Xinjiang)\n• Circularity: low effective module recycling, limited verified take‑back\n• Carbon accounting: frequent omission of Scope 3; probable underreporting\n• Health & safety: hazardous materials handling (e.g., CdTe) requires robust controls\n• Governance: greenwashing risk and disclosure quality variability
Regulatory Environment
• Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) detentions; CBP reviews of tainted goods\n• FTC Green Guides updates and state AG actions on deceptive sustainability claims\n• SEC climate disclosure rules increasing Scope‑3 accountability\n• State take‑back/recycling mandates (e.g., WA PV EPR program starting 2025)
