According to Xinhua News Agency, the smart monitoring platform of the power grid at the Ezhou Power Supply Company under State Grid Hubei Electric Power Co., Ltd. showed that, as of 12:00 on May 27, the cumulative PV power generation at Ezhou Huahu International Airport exceeded 100 million kWh. Ezhou Huahu International Airport is China's first dedicated cargo hub airport. Since its commissioning in 2022, its cargo business has grown rapidly. Currently, 119 cargo routes have been opened, and the hub's cargo volume climbed from less than 10,000 mt in the early days of operation to 1.4781 million mt in 2025. Along with business expansion, the airport's peak electricity consumption has also exceeded 20,000 kW.

[Solar: Europe-bound freight rates rise sharply as port congestion disrupts module delivery]

According to SMM research, freight rates for PV products shipped to Europe have increased significantly recently, with quotes on some routes rising by around USD 2,000-3,000 per high-cube container from previous levels. Meanwhile, congestion has emerged at Rotterdam and some ports in Portugal, leading to vessel schedule delays and lower container pickup efficiency. This is expected to cause certain disruptions to European module delivery schedules and temporarily push up module landed costs. SMM will continue to monitor the subsequent impact.
