FedEx Activates Airport Solar Project in Shanghai

Federal Express Corporation (FedEx) has activated its first on-site solar installation in East China at the Shanghai Pudong International Airport cargo area.

Spanning over 4,000 m², the PV system is expected to generate 743,000 kWh of electricity annually, reducing nearly 417 metric tons of CO₂ emissions.

The project adds to FedEx’s solar installations across Asia Pacific, including facilities in South Korea, Beijing, and Singapore. Globally, the company has deployed more than 31 GWh of solar generation across over 30 sites and operates more than 8,000 electric vehicles. The installation is in line with FedEx’s target of achieving carbon-neutral operations by 2040.

Skyworth Group’s 2025 New Energy Revenue Surpasses TV Business

Skyworth Group reported 2025 operating revenue of RMB 70.32 billion, up 8.2% year-on-year (YoY), while net profit declined 27.8% to RMB 837 million.

The company’s new energy business generated RMB 23.69 billion in revenue, increasing 16.5% YoY and accounting for 33.6% of total revenue. The smart home appliance segment recorded RMB 35.66 billion in revenue, including RMB 21.67 billion from the smart TV business. With these results, the company’s new energy segment has surpassed the group’s flagship TV business in revenue.

Skyworth operates its residential and commercial & industrial (C&I) PV business under the Solavita and Skyworth brands. By the end of 2025, the company had cumulatively built and grid-connected more than 29.3 GW of PV power stations.

Recently, Skyworth PV signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Jingdong Property to collaborate on industrial park PV, warehousing integration, and overseas expansion (see China Solar PV News Snippets).

Yanhe Solar to Begin On-Orbit Testing of Satellites Equipped with Perovskite Modules

Perovskite manufacturer Yanhe Solar announced that its self-developed tandem perovskite modules have passed simulated extreme space environment tests conducted by satellite enterprises, including China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), meeting aerospace application standards and preparing for on-orbit testing.

The company established a joint laboratory for space computing and energy with Comospace earlier this month to support satellite launches for a space computing center powered by flexible thin-film solar arrays (see China Solar PV News Snippets).

Yanhe Solar said multiple satellites equipped with its solar cells will be launched in 2026, with plans to scale deployment to more than 100 satellites by 2028.

The TaiyangNews Virtual Conference on Next-Generation PV Technology 2026, scheduled for April 22, 2026, will bring together key stakeholders working on silicon-perovskite tandem technologies. Registrations are open and can be done here.

Xinte Energy Narrows Net Loss in 2025

Releasing its FY2025 financial results, Xinte Energy reported operating revenue of RMB 15.25 billion, down 28.09% year-on-year (YoY), while net loss narrowed to RMB 1.21 billion from RMB 3.90 billion in 2024.

The polysilicon segment generated RMB 2.93 billion in revenue, declining 62.26% YoY. Wind and PV power project construction recorded RMB 5.92 billion, down 20.68%, while wind and PV power station operations increased 14.18% to RMB 2.68 billion.

By the end of 2025, the company operated 4 GW of grid-connected solar and wind power stations.
