This study aimed to assess and compare the environmental impacts of stand-alone PV systems with storage installed in Burkina Faso. Two scenarios differing in battery technology (lead acid and lithium-ion) and two others in end-of-life management (landfill and recycling) were studied. Contact online >>

Unlike Burkina Faso, licensed companies in other sub-Saharan African countries carry out (Nigeria, Senegal, Rwanda, and Uganda) battery regeneration. In October 2022, Be Energy, the world leader in battery and oil regeneration, opened its doors in Senegal in close collaboration with the Senegalese Ministry of the Environment and the Regional
Following the death of 18 children in Thiaroye-sur-Mer, investigating authorities identified lead poisoning from local recycling of discarded car batteries as the silent threat stalking the seaside community.
Develop a national strategy for Burkina Faso and Tanzania to improve the management of waste lead-acid batteries and help reduce childhood lead poisoning. The project is anticipated to be completed by June 2021.
This study aims to investigate the current PV waste management system in Burkina Faso, determine stakeholder proles, and propose strategies to enhance the existing system. Documentary research, interviews, questionnaires, and eld visits were used in the methodology.
The objective of the project is to enhance capacity of countries and stakeholders to prevent and address pollution in an integrated manner, with the environmentally sound management of waste lead acid battery recycling being one of the focus areas.
