title:

Recommendation 11. Integrate Solar Waste Management and Environmental Guidelines into Training Programs: The transition to renewable energy presents new environmental challenges, such as the management of solar panel waste and the disposal of used batteries and electronic components. Currently, environmental sustainability topics are not fully embedded across all RE/EE training programs at KGRTC. Integrating solar waste management and environmental guidelines as core training modules will ensure that all trainees develop a strong understanding of sustainability principles, equipping them with the skills needed to design and implement environmentally responsible energy solutions. To enhance environmental sustainability, KGRTC should therefore integrate solar waste management and environmental guidelines as core modules across all training programs. This would build awareness and capacity among trainees to design sustainable RE solutions.
