Definition: RACKETEERS OFFER A DECEITFUL SERVICE TO FIX A PROBLEM THAT OTHERWISE WOULDN'T EXIST.
Sustainable Electronics Recycling Institute -Formerly known as "R2 Solutions" - is in criminal racketeering territory nowadays.
They already violated ANSI and ANAB rules with Version 3, as we documented here 3 years ago. Now they are taking something - secondhand solar panels - which they have NEVER shown ANAB or ANSI they have ANY expertise or authority in, and are clearly making their monetary interests (SERI YOUR SALARY) upfront. @2019 Blog on Certification and Racketeering.
Read this. If you are certified by SERI to test solar panels for reuse, you pay them $20lk, it's fine. But if you sell the solar panels to a Solar Panel Expert Wizard - WHO HAS NEVER HEARD OF SERI OR R2 - you can only do so if SERI has issued the Solar Panel Expert Wizard a CERTIFICATE costing $20,000.
This is not allowed unless SERI gets money.
