Despite a decrease in funding volume in 2025, the number of deals increased year-over-year from 157 in 2024 to 175 in 2025. Another positive outcome in 2025 is that the number of large-scale solar PV acquisitions increased by 13%, with 246 compared to the 217 registered in 2024. However, the increased number of acquisitions did

Each acquired project features development approval and connection agreements for 5MW solar facilities paired with battery storage systems. The projects are scheduled to enter construction in 2026 and achieve operational status by early 2027. Once operational, the portfolio is projected to generate approximately 90GWh annually and to produce around 85,000 Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs). Philip
According to a statement by Egypts Ministry of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Kemet signed a cooperation deal with GCL to build the 5GW industrial complex to produce solar cells and modules, worth around US$500 million, during a visit to China.
