A new end-of-life recovery facility in Surat, Gujarat — designed to return glass, silicon, silver, copper and aluminium from retired panels back into the supply chain.
Chemnixe handles the end-of-life side of solar assets in India — retired modules, inverters, transformers and associated power electronics — so owners and EPC firms have one route for disposal that is documented and compliant.
Since 2023, solar photovoltaic modules, panels and cells have been covered by India's E-Waste (Management) Rules, 2022, administered by the Central Pollution Control Board. Under those rules, producers and bulk consumers are responsible for channelling end-of-life panels to a registered recycler. Chemnixe is being built in Surat, Gujarat to serve that requirement.
Chemnixe is pre-operational. Registration and certification details will be published on this page once issued.
Chemnixe was founded in 2026 to address a gap that India's solar build-out is about to create: the modules going up now will need somewhere to go when they come down. We are building that capacity in Surat, Gujarat solutions. We partner with businesses to restore, renew, and recycle valuable materials, helping transform yesterday’s products into resources for tomorrow’s sustainable projects.
