The SUNRISE Community has seen strong early engagement, bringing together a growing global network focused on advancing solar circularity and resilient value chains. SUNRISE is a global platform that convenes stakeholders across the solar value chain to promote circular approaches, resource efficiency, and long-term system resilience. 🌞 In a short period, 117 institutions have joined the platform, with active participation from 34 countries, reflecting broad interest in strengthening sustainable and circular approaches across the solar sector. ♻️ This engagement goes beyond participation. It represents a clear intent to act collectively, bringing together industry, researchers, innovators, and policymakers to address practical challenges and unlock new opportunities across the solar value chain. As the initiative progresses, the thematic working groups will play a central role in convening this global community to develop solutions, share best practices, and shape frameworks that can accelerate circularity in solar. The SUNRISE Community will now move into its next phase of collaboration and delivery. @soniakdunlop | @oiseaulibre3 | @Ashish_Khanna | @gurleenk_shares #SUNRISECommunity #SolarCircularity #CircularEconomy #ResilientValueChains #SustainableSolar #ResourceEfficiency #EnergyTransition

As solar energy scales globally, ensuring sustainability across the full lifecycle of solar technologies has become imperative. In the latest Capsule #13 of #VitaminD, Mr @Ashish_Khanna, DG-ISA explains SUNRISE (Solar Upcycling Network for Recycling, Innovation & Stakeholder Engagement), ISA's global platform advancing solar PV and battery circularity, launched in October 2025. ☀️Through SUNRISE, ISA works towards redefining the solar revolution, ensuring that every watt of solar power deployed today becomes a renewable, recoverable, and regenerative resource for tomorrow. The platform connects governments, industries, and innovators to unlock the value embedded in solar waste, transforming end-of-life challenges into engines of new industrial growth, green employment, and sustainable resource management. 🎧 Tune in to explore how #SUNRISE is advancing solar circularity. @oiseaulibre3 | @fz_juelich | @soniakdunlop | @GSolarCouncil | @PVCYCLEonline | @gurleenk_shares #SolarCircularity #CleanEnergy #CircularEconomy #EnergyTransition #Recycle #WasteToWorth #SolarPV #WasteManagement #Reuse #ResourceManagement
