The funded research project 'WattsOK?' has been launched. This innovative project uses artificial intelligence, optical inspection and robotics to automate quality testing of used photovoltaic modules. The system uses the test results to make decisions about reuse or recycling, with the aim of maximising the service life of the modules while increasing the photovoltaic sector's resource efficiency and sustainability.
Building on a successful pilot project within the EDIH AI5Production framework, the project is being implemented by the AIT Austrian Institute of Technology in cooperation with several industry partners.
