[SMM PV] 2026 Olefin Industry Conference Proceeded as Scheduled

In May 2026, the European Union adopted a series of restrictive measures against China in the new energy sector, several of which are directly related to the photovoltaic and energy storage supply chains. In this situation, how will the European's solar market goes...?

TCL Zhonghuan New Energy recently announced that it will join hands with Heiguan Optoelectronics to jointly enter the perovskite/crystalline silicon tandem solar cell field. The two parties will establish a joint venture, in which TCL Zhonghuan New Energy will hold 55% equity through monetary contribution, thereby officially entering the new track of space energy with a market size reaching the trillion-level. According to the agreement, the two parties will leverage their in-depth cooperation with Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics to jointly develop perovskite/crystalline silicon tandem solar cell technology for space application scenarios, covering satellites, space stations, and other types of spacecraft. The joint venture will serve as the core implementation vehicle for this project, undertaking the entire chain of work from technology R&D and pilot verification to subsequent industrialisation promotion, accelerating the commercialisation of space PV products.

Recently, AIKO officially entered into a partnership with Infinity Power, Egypt's leading independent renewable energy producer, to supply high-efficiency ABC modules for a large-scale 259MW centralized PV ground-mounted power station project located in the renowned Benban Solar Park in Aswan Governorate, Egypt. As one of Africa's largest independent renewable energy producers, Infinity Power is committed to developing, constructing, and operating large-scale centralized PV and wind power projects across the African continent. This signing not only represents the large-scale deployment of AIKO's ABC technology in the energy heartland of North Africa, but also marks the successful entry of ABC modules into the core supply chain of top-tier developers in the Middle East and Africa, thanks to their comprehensive advantages including high power generation efficiency, low LCOE, and full life cycle reliability, establishing them as a benchmark technology solution for PV market investment and development in the region.
