Result
Solar waste is real. The claim flips the scale.
The claim is not supported by public lifecycle evidence. Solar panels do create end-of-life waste, and some can contain hazardous materials.
FALSE means the claim conflicts with the pinned sources.

3-line evidence
The claim is not supported by public lifecycle evidence. Solar panels do create end-of-life waste, and some can contain hazardous materials. But official and scientific sources find that solar panels produce large amounts of low-emission electricity over their service life, while waste is a manageable and increasingly recyclable disposal issue.
Public lifecycle reviews find solar PV produces very low greenhouse-gas emissions per kilowatt-hour compared with fossil electricity. Panels usually generate many years of electricity after paying back the energy used to
End-of-life solar-panel waste is projected to grow, but it is measured against decades of electricity generation and large recyclable material streams. IRENA and IEA PVPS treat it as a waste-management challenge, not as
Some panels can contain hazardous substances, such as lead or cadmium compounds, and damaged or discarded panels need proper handling. That context supports regulation and recycling, but not the claim that solar creates
