[The World's First GW-Level Perovskite PV Module Production Line Commences Operation] On February 5, the world's first GW-level perovskite PV module production line, constructed by Extreme Energy, commenced operation. This marks the official entry of perovskite technology into a new era of GW-level mass production. The GW-level production line of Extreme Energy is capable of mass-producing ultra-large perovskite PV modules and pioneering large-scale BIPV products. Once the project reaches full production, it is expected to produce approximately 1.8 million perovskite PV modules annually. (Polaris Solar PV Network)
On February 5, the world's first GW-level perovskite PV module production line, constructed by Extreme Electric Solar, commenced operation. This marks the official entry of perovskite technology into a new era of GW-level mass production. The GW-level production line of Extreme Electric Solar is capable of mass-producing ultra-large perovskite PV modules and pioneering large-area BIPV products. Once the project reaches full production, it is expected to produce approximately 1.8 million pieces of perovskite PV modules annually.

It is reported that on November 5, 2024, during the phase when the entire process of the GW-level production line was fully integrated, the first 2.8 m² perovskite module rolled off the production line, achieving a power output of 450W and a full-area efficiency of 16.1%, setting a global record for the largest area and highest power of perovskite modules. With the gradual introduction of pilot production processes, the technological level of this production line continues to improve, aiming for a mass production efficiency target of 20% for modules in 2025.

[SMM PV News] Puerto Rico Rooftop Solar Hits 20% of Total Power Capacity
Recent 'EIA' data shows rooftop solar now makes up 20% of Puerto Rico's power capacity (1,456 MW), surpassing natural gas as the second-largest source. Between 2016 and 2025, distributed solar accounted for 81% of all new capacity. To combat frequent grid outages, residents have deployed over 171,000 battery systems (2,864 MWh), with many joining grid operator LUMA's virtual power plant ('VPP') program. Despite this progress, new legislation extended the territory's sole coal plant to 2032 and removed interim renewable targets, though the 100% goal for 2050 remains.

[SMM PV News] US Solar Faces Labor Shortage Ahead of 'OBBBA' Deadline
The US solar industry faces a 53,000-worker shortfall as developers rush to meet the July 2026 construction deadline under the 'OBBBA'. Projections indicate 355,000 workers are needed to hit the 60-70 GW installation targets, yet 86% of employers report hiring difficulties. The labor crunch is compounded by a mandate requiring 15% of labor hours to come from apprentices to secure tax credits. To adapt, developers are building internal training pipelines, targeting veterans, and utilizing digital tools to maximize efficiency.
