[SMM PV News] On June 13th, in terms of silicon wafer production scheduling: This week, the operating rates of most enterprises were concentrated between 40% and 60%, with the overall market being relatively weak. Enterprise leaders generally held a conservative attitude, believing that it was acceptable as long as there were no losses. One reason was that enterprises currently had fewer orders, and to avoid overproduction leading to inventory backlogs and losses, the operating rates of production lines were not high. Another reason was the uncertainty in the market's economic environment: Enterprises chose to maintain a lower production scale to reduce risks.

[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.
