Digest
SB 2659 establishes requirements for the recycling of certain renewable energy components, including wind turbine generators, solar panels, and battery storage systems. It mandates that recycling facilities handling these materials submit annual reports detailing inventory, estimated recycling timelines, and cost estimates prepared by independent engineers. Facilities must also provide financial assurance covering 125% of the estimated recycling costs. Noncompliance may result in administrative penalties, and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality is tasked with maintaining a public list of compliant recycling facilities​.
