The TaiyangNews Cell Production Equipment Report, published recently, discussed the innovations in cell production equipment. As a follow-up, TaiyangNews is now organizing a virtual conference to expand the coverage and dialogue on production equipment.
At the TaiyangNews Virtual Conference on Cell & Module Production Equipment & Processing Materials, Fangqing Guo, Director of New Technology Development at DKEM, will be presenting on the topic titled: Milestones in Metallization: Advances in Silver Pastes for Establishing Metallic Contact Across Cell Architectures.
The Conference is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, September 2, 2025, from 09:30 to 13:00. For the full agenda, please visit our website. Click here to register for free.
China Huaneng has commissioned a 5 MW perovskite PV demonstration project in the Gonghe PV Industrial Park, Qinghai Province. This project is claimed to be the world’s first commercial-scale perovskite base of this magnitude.
The project will test perovskite PV performance and reliability under strong UV and high irradiation conditions. Huaneng stated that the project will accelerate the transition of perovskites from laboratory to demonstration scale, and aims to build a full innovation chain from R&D to technical services and commercialization.
In June, Tongwei Group and China Huaneng announced that they are jointly developing what they call China’s first ‘solar-grazing complementarity’ pilot project on degraded grasslands in Damao Banner, Inner Mongolia (see China Solar PV News Snippets).
Solar cell and module manufacturer EGING PV reported H1 2025 revenues of RMB 1.181 billion ($164 million), down 46.05% YoY. The company stated that it narrowed its losses despite this steep revenue drop, reporting a net loss of RMB 152.5 million ($21.2 million), compared with a RMB 469.8 million ($65.2 million) loss in the same period last year. The net loss figure is closer to the high end of, but in line with, EGING PV’s forecast for the first half of 2025 (see China Solar PV News Snippets).
Inverter and storage manufacturer Deye reported H1 2025 revenue of RMB 5.535 billion ($769 million), up 16.58% year-over-year (YoY). Its net profit attributable to shareholders for the period was RMB 1.522 billion ($211 million), up 23.18% YoY.
By segment, inverters contributed 47.93% of revenue, storage battery packs accounted for 25.78%, while environmental appliances made up the rest.
In H1 2025, Deye reported total inverter sales of 763,800 inverters, including 272,700 residential storage inverters and 42,900 C&I storage inverters.
According to the National Energy Administration (NEA), China completed 25.6 billion kWh of green power transactions (mainly solar and wind) in July 2025, up 43.2% YoY. While the total electricity market transactions in the same month reached 624.6 billion kWh, up 7.4% YoY.
For the 7 months from January to July 2025, cumulative electricity market transactions totaled 35.9 trillion kWh, up 3.2% YoY. Green power trading accounted for 181.7 billion kWh of this total, up 42.1% YoY.
Green power trading allows end-users to directly purchase renewable electricity (solar, wind) and obtain green power consumption certificates. For the first half of 2025, the NEA issued a cumulative 1.371 billion GECs, including 27,964 certificates for solar and 57,630 for wind (see China Solar PV News Snippets).
