A Swiss start-up, Turn2Sun, has created a second-life for wind turbines called Blade2Sun. This novel invention uses reclaimed wind turbine blades as horizontal support for solar panels instead of metal beams. Companies like Solarcylcle, First Solar, Li-Cycle, Redwood Materials, Carbon Rivers and Veolia work to reduce waste and find economic uses for it while addressing. . Solar panels or wind turbines generate a large amount of waste. The adjective that shakes reality comes from Adrián Larripa, professor at the School of Architecture at the Universidad de Navarra and expert engineer in product design.
