Albeit when the solar panels reach the end of life... Not to mention the batteries.
Many turbine, coal, gas plants lived for more than 50 years with some maintenance. That's longer than nuclear, and both solar and wind are perishable in comparison.
That does not excuse the use of fossil fuels, just highlights that we'll have another problem to deal with soon enough.
We'll see how good recycling and refurbishing is on these installations.
