Polaris Solar PV Network learned that recently, foreign media reported that Nippon Energy, a Japanese PV EPC company, announced plans to establish a PV module manufacturing plant in Dubai with an annual capacity of 1 GW, which is intended to produce HJT PV modules.

To support this plan, Nippon Energy has recently acquired a PV module enterprise established in 2016 in Dubai.

It is reported that Nippon Energy is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, and primarily provides solar energy solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial projects, with extensive business operations in the UAE and Pakistani markets. In the UAE market, the company also offers PV investment and leasing solutions.

Regarding the investment plan for the 1 GW PV module plant in Dubai, Nippon Energy stated that the project aligns with the UAE's vision and the COP28 initiative, demonstrating the company's firm commitment to sustainable development and its dedication to supporting the UAE's long-term environmental goals.

Silicon Metal Prices Under Pressure Amid Market Tug-of-War; Polysilicon Market Sentiment Remains Weak [SMM Silicon-Based PV Morning Meeting Minutes]

[SMM Silicon-Based PV Morning Meeting Minutes] Silicon metal: Yesterday, SMM oxygen-blown #553 silicon in east China was at 9,000-9,200 yuan/mt, and 441# silicon was at 9,200-9,500 yuan/mt. Yesterday afternoon, silicon metal futures prices fluctuated sharply due to macro disruptions; the most-traded contract fell below 8,200 yuan/mt at its low and closed at 8,205 yuan/mt in late trading. Some silicon enterprises in northern China lowered their quoted prices, but they still did not match the price advantage of spot-futures traders, and downstream users mainly bought the dip. Polysilicon: N-type recharging polysilicon was quoted at 46-53 yuan/kg, the polysilicon price index was 49.17 yuan/kg, and polysilicon prices have declined significantly recently, mainly due to pressure from wafer price cuts and the impact of related meetings. At present, as the wafer segment has yet to stop falling, market sentiment is weak, and there may still be some downside room going forward.

[SMM PV News] CHN Energy Commissions 4 GW Lingwu PV Base on Subsidence Land

CHN Energy has fully commissioned its 4 GW Lingwu PV project in Ningxia, following the grid connection of its Phase II 2 GW section. Part of a massive 6 GW mining-subsidence base, the site will deliver 10.8 TWh annually to the east via the 800 kV Ningxia-Zhejiang UHVDC line. The project pioneers a 'solar-coal-storage-hydrogen' model, bundling PV with existing thermal assets and a 400 MW/800 MWh grid-forming storage system to smooth variability. By repurposing degraded coal lands, integrating 'PV + ecology' for vegetation recovery, and sharing an existing 750 kV coal plant substation, the base sets a benchmark for land reuse and long-distance clean energy transmission in western China.
