SMM News: France recently announced a 100 billion yuan economic stimulus package to recover the economy from the damage caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of the economic recovery plan (France Relance), the government has allocated 30 billion ou for the green energy sector.

The 100 billion ou stimulus package, with a total investment of 1/3 of France's annual budget, will focus on energy innovation in the transport, construction, agriculture and power sectors to achieve sustainable growth.

According to the announcement, the government will invest 2 billion ou yuan to expand the green hydrogen industry to achieve carbon neutralization by 2050. The money will be used to assist the company in implementing projects related to hydrogen solutions and building a hydrogen industry.

As part of the recovery plan, the government will invest 4 billion ou yuan to finance the upgrading of energy systems in public buildings, thereby reducing the country's overall greenhouse gas emissions. Over the next two years, France will also invest about 2 billion ou to upgrade the energy system of the country's private buildings.

The government announced that it would allocate 1.2 billion ou yuan for decarbonization in the industrial sector, which accounts for nearly 20 per cent of the country's total greenhouse gas emissions. The investment will be used to support the industry to increase its investment in equipment with less carbon emissions.

In addition, the government will provide 1.2 billion ou yuan for domestic green infrastructure and transportation projects to develop transport projects and public transport services that can reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

French data and Statistical Research said in its latest report that the country added 379 megawatts of solar capacity in the first half of 2020. These new devices are mainly concentrated in the south of the country, with a cumulative total of 10.3 GW installed in France by June 2020.

Shennan Circuits Reports Strong PCB, Packaging Substrate Business Growth & Project Progress

Shennan Circuits disclosed its investor relations activity record. The PCB business benefited from growing demand for AI computing infrastructure hardware-related products, with factory capacity utilization rates staying high. The packaging substrate business, driven by demand boosts from storage and processor chip substrates, maintained the elevated capacity utilization rate levels seen since Q4 2025. For the Guangzhou packaging substrate project, the capacity ramp-up of BT-type packaging substrates progressed steadily. FC-BGA packaging substrates achieved mass production of products with 22 layers and below, while R&D and sampling of products with 24 layers and above advanced on schedule. The Nantong Phase IV and Thailand factory projects were successfully connected and put into production in H2 2025, with capacity currently ramping up steadily. Capital expenditure in 2026 will primarily focus on PCB and packaging substrate businesses, with key investments directed toward the Wuxi high-speed, high-density, and high-multilayer electronic circuit product project, the Guangzhou packaging substrate factory construction, as well as subsequent payments for the Nantong Phase IV and Thailand factory projects.

[SMM Tin News Flash: Institution: Micro LED CPO Optical Transceiver Module Market Value Expected to Reach $848 Million by 2030]

According to TrendForce's latest Micro LED industry research, generative AI is driving a rapid climb in demand for high-speed optical communications. Since Micro LED features an energy consumption of only 1-2 pJ/bit and a bit error rate (BER) of less than one ten-billionth, it is expected to become one of the three major short-distance high-speed transmission solutions for intra-rack applications in scale-up data center networks, alongside AEC (Active Electrical Cable) and VCSEL NPO (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser Near-Package Optics). Therefore, TrendForce estimates that the market value of Micro LED CPO optical transceiver modules will reach $848 million by 2030.
