Mitigating pollution in solar panel manufacturing is crucial to ensure that the benefits of solar energy are not overshadowed by environmental damage. The industry has recognized the need for sustainable practices to minimize the negative impacts of production. Effective pollution control strategies include recycling programs for byproducts like silicon

Inspired by the high polarized light pollution plp ≤ 58 % of the studied smooth (shiny) photovoltaic solar panels, we suggest to reduce the degree of linear polarization d of panel-reflected light either by coverig the panel''s surface with a gridding composed of orthogonal thin (1-2 mm) white stripes, or by using an antireflecting, matte covering. Both methods can

Solar panels are also a source of light pollution. Improper disposal of solar cells that have reached the end of their service life harms the environment through the stench they produce and the damage they cause to the soil.
Since the larvae of these insects develop in water/mud for a few months/years, hydration by dew or rain drops on the solar panels cannot ensure the survival of eggs. This effect is harmful for the aquatic insect populations concerned, and therefore is called polarized light pollution [ 30 ]. Optical characteristics of photovoltaic solar panels.
Although solar expansion would benefit the integrity of the ecosphere by reducing global greenhouse gas emissions, it may also lead to unintended ecological impacts. Photovoltaic solar panels are strong sources of a form of photopollution known as polarized light pollution (PLP, Horváth et al. 2009, 2010a ).
Reviewer #1: The authors of this study devise a way to reduce polarized light pollution from solar panels by using rose petaled shapes of material, which break up the polarizing effect of solar panels. They measured the polarization of the solar panels extensively and included two behavioral tests with insects: mayflies and horseflies.
The negative effects of solar photovoltaic system production include wastewater and waste gas pollutions, the representatives of which contain fluorine, chromium with wastewater and hydrogen fluoride, and silicon tetrachloride gas. Solar panels are also a source of light pollution.
