Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) hosted a high-level German delegation led by HE Sybille Pfaff, Consul General of Germany in Dubai, to explore partnerships in renewable energy and green hydrogen. The visit is part of Germany’s Energy Export Initiative and included representatives from major clean energy companies like FEV Group, MAN Energy Solutions, Hexagon Purus, and MoveTech.

The meeting, led by DEWA’s MD & CEO HE Saeed Mohammed Al Tayer, focused on collaboration in green hydrogen development, energy storage, and technology exchange. Delegates also discussed potential field visits to DEWA's assets, including the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park.

Al Tayer shared updates on the Solar Park, which currently has a 3,760MW capacity (21% of Dubai’s energy mix), with plans to reach 7,260MW by 2030 (34%). Phase 6 (1,800MW) is due in 2026, and Phase 7 will include 1,600MW solar and 1,000MW battery storage, totaling 6,000 MWh.

[SMM Silicon-based PV Morning Meeting Summary] Glass Price Hikes Implemented, Silicon Metal Destocking, Polysilicon Production Cuts Continue to Advance

[SMM Silicon-based PV Morning Meeting Summary: Glass Price Hikes Implemented, Silicon Metal Destocking, Polysilicon Production Cuts Continue to Advance] China's polysilicon production in October will decline significantly, with production expected to fall below 100,000 mt. In addition to expectations for production cuts at some bases in south-west China due to the dry season, some bases in Xinjiang and other regions also face expectations for production cuts under coordinated reduction efforts.

[SMM PV Flash] PowerChina Commissions Integrated PV, CSP and Molten Salt Storage Project

PowerChina has completed grid connection of an integrated solar PV and concentrated solar power project in Gonghe, Qinghai province. The project combines photovoltaic generation, tower-based CSP, molten salt thermal storage and power-to-heat technology within a single system. The CSP section includes eight hours of molten salt storage, while electric heaters can convert surplus PV electricity into thermal energy for storage. The stored heat can later be used to generate electricity during evening peak demand or periods of low solar irradiation, improving dispatchability and reducing solar curtailment. The project demonstrates a hybrid approach that combines PV generation with thermal storage to provide longer-duration energy shifting and greater flexibility in high-renewable power systems.

[SMM PV Flash] Axian Energy and Africa GreenCo Sign Solar PPA in Zambia

Pan-African renewable energy developer Axian Energy has signed a solar power purchase agreement with energy aggregator and electricity trader Africa GreenCo for the Kudu solar project in Zambia. The project has also secured financial support from Standard Bank and Stanbic Bank Zambia and is progressing toward financial close and construction. Africa GreenCo operates a regional power aggregation and trading model that can reduce exposure to a single off-taker by selling electricity across multiple markets. The agreement reflects the growing role of aggregator-based PPA structures in supporting the financing and development of utility-scale solar projects across African power markets.
