Petroleum coke quotes generally stood stable this week.

SHANGHAI, May 26 (SMM) - Petroleum coke: The quotes generally stood stable this week. According to SMM research, the ex-factory quotation of Tahe Petrochemical was 1,770 yuan/mt on May 25, which was stable week-on-week, versus 1,460 yuan/mt by Guangzhou Petrochemical (+3.55%), 1,560 yuan/mt by Yangzi Petrochemical (flat WoW). Domestic petroleum coke supply decreased because of the petrochemical plants’ maintenance, but the demand grew somewhat with the slowly growing aluminium capacities and the slight pick-up of anode material market. However, the petroleum coke price hike was greatly suppressed by the high stocks at ports. SMM presumes that the short-term petroleum coke prices will move rangebound.

[SMM PV News] Armenia Hits 1.1 GW Solar Capacity,

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.
