Australian thinktank Climate Energy Finance (CEF) has forecast global solar module manufacturing capacity to reach 1.8TW by the end of the year. This would be triple the installations registered globally in 2024, with China responsible for most of the supply chain. [pdf]
[FAQS about Expanding production of photovoltaic cell modules]
Rare earth materials are so called not because they are rare in the earth’s crust, but because they are chemically very similar. This makes them difficult to mine and separate without. .
Unlike the wind power and EV sectors, the solar PV industry isn’t reliant on rare earth materials. Instead, solar cells use a range of minor metals including silicon, indium, gallium, selenium,. .
Solar technology developers are exploring the use of new materials for PV cells as the industry looks to increase cell efficiencies, reduce. Instead, solar cells use a range of minor metals including silicon, indium, gallium, selenium, cadmium, and tellurium. Minor metals, which are sometimes referred to as rare metals, are by-products from the refining of base metals such as copper, nickel, and zinc. [pdf]

The island archipelago nation off the West African coast, Cabo Verde, has, to date, inaugurated its largest solar photovoltaic power plant. The Sal Island project is part of a set of investments, which includes eight more solar parks anticipated to produce more than 10GW annually for the country. [pdf]
[FAQS about Cape Verde Photovoltaic Module Production Project]
The deep processing process of photovoltaic glass involves two steps: tempering and coating. The original sheet is ground and then tempered to obtain tempered sheets, or tempered and coated to obtain coated sheets for component packaging. [pdf]
[FAQS about Key processes in photovoltaic glass production]
Most Chinese solar suppliers with production capacity in the four Southeast Asian countries under investigation (Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam) have stopped shipping to the United States due to the elevated risk of retroactive tariffs being applied to their products. [pdf]
