Europe’s ‘Made in EU’ plans draw mixed reactions from solar industry

Europe’s ‘Made in EU’ plans draw mixed reactions from solar industry

In a statement, the Commission said the IAA “aims to increase value creation in the EU, strengthening our industrial base against the backdrop of growing unfair global competition and increasing dependencies on non-EU suppliers in strategic sectors”. For renewable energy technologies, that dependence and “unfair global competition” stems from China’s dominance of the global solar

From profit to loss: China’s biggest PV tracker company, Arctech Solar, under pressure

From profit to loss: China’s biggest PV tracker company, Arctech Solar, under pressure

Explaining the loss, Arctech Solar stated in the report that persistent fluctuations in upstream PV module prices in 2025 disrupted investment return calculations and construction planning for downstream power plant developers, causing delays in project commencement and construction progress. As a tracker supplier, the company’s product delivery, acceptance and revenue recognition were correspondingly delayed. In

CEA-Ines, 3Sun build heterojunction solar modules based on UV downshifting

The new heterojunction solar module concept is based on co-extruded EVA/POE/EVA (EPE) encapsulant with UV downshifting (UV-DS) films, which convert harmful UV light into blue light, protecting cells and slightly boosting short-circuit current by 1.5–1.75%.
