Armenia’s cumulative solar capacity has surged to 1.1 GW following the addition of approximately 615 MW in 2025. This rapid expansion has pushed solar's share of electricity generation to around 15%, effectively meeting the country's 2030 target years ahead of schedule. The growth is heavily driven by a net-metering scheme supporting over 50,000 autonomous producers (totaling 650 MW), though the government ended loan subsidies for rooftop solar in July to shift focus toward battery storage.

[SMM PV News] Australia Rooftop Solar Hits 28.3 GW

Australian homes and businesses added 2.6 GW of rooftop solar in 2025, pushing the national total to 28.3 GW—surpassing the country's entire 22.5 GW coal-fired generation fleet. While solar installation volumes cooled by 15% to roughly 255,000 units as the market matures, the energy storage sector saw unprecedented growth driven by the federal government's $7.3 billion 'Cheaper Home Batteries' program. A record-breaking 183,245 battery units were installed in the second half of 2025 alone, a four-fold increase year-on-year that nearly matched the total sales of the previous five years combined.
