Thank you for your continued support of the PV Reborn Association.

Today we are pleased to inform that PV Reborn Association has joined the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry’s “Industry-Government-Academia Partnership on the Circular Economy”.

The Circular Economy is an initiative that aims to balance economic development and environmental preservation, and emphasizes the efficient use of resources and minimization of waste. By moving away from the traditional “disposable” linear economy and promoting the reuse and recycling of products and resources, the goal is to create an economic system that can both reduce environmental impact and achieve economic benefits.
