As a successful serial entrepreneur, I create and build service-based companies that become industry leaders. My strengths lie in two key areas: building strong relationships with clients and suppliers, and hiring seriously smart people that spearhead innovation and growth.Most recently, I served as CEO of Guardian Data Destruction, a company I founded based on a simple idea. What started with an onsite erasure “mobile lab” grew to become the nation’s largest provider of onsite, full service, end-of-life data destruction, logistics and data center services. Guardian was recently acquired by an investment group, where I remain both an investor and advocate.Now, I’m turning my focus to transforming the solar energy industry.Thousands of solar panels are replaced or removed annually. Most of them are delivered to the nearest dump. With an estimated 350-718 million installed PV panels, some installed nearly thirty years ago, this e-waste problem is only going to get bigger and dirtier. Landfills aren’t the answer.That’s where Commercial Solar Panel Recycling comes in. Based in Philipsburg, New Jersey with facilities across the US, we focus on nationwide strategies that divert solar panels from landfills. Following the known principles of reuse, repurpose and recycling, CSPR has solutions that include reselling PV panels of value to extend their life, repurposing and transforming solar panels into useful products (“puppy tents” for animal shelters, conference tables, etc.) and, in cases of unusable panels (broken, low energy production), we have a refined process that separates the glass from the aluminum, wiring and junction boxes to maximize recycling.As a SEIA member, Commercial Solar Panel Recycling’s turnaround team works with installers, roofers, utilities, municipalities, manufacturers and more to develop compliant, practical and cost effective solutions to address this hidden, ugly secret within the green energy industry. Commercial Solar Panel Recycling’s solutions are available nationwide. Reach out to me with ideas, questions or to receive more information.glenn@crecyclingsolutions.com
