The National Energy Administration released energy data for the first three quarters: renewable energy generation nationwide reached 3.13 trillion kWh, up approximately 8% year on year and accounting for 41.8% of total electricity generation. Cumulative installed wind and solar capacity exceeded 2 billion kW. How is newly added capacity translating into actual power generation? What are the key developments in electricity market trading and ensuring supply during peak winter demand? Click to learn the key data and areas to watch going forward.

The meeting to draft and review the national standard for perovskite film crystallization manufacturing was held at GCL Optoelectronics. It focused on reviewing the full text of the Technical Specification for Thin-Film Technology Using Vacuum-Assisted Crystallization and Physical Liquid-Phase Deposition, as well as planning follow-up work. The standard was jointly developed by organizations including Kaifu Optoelectronics and GCL Optoelectronics, and has not yet been published or implemented. Learn about the meeting's progress and follow the standard's submission for approval, the official text, and developments in international standardization to understand the direction of development for thin-film manufacturing specifications.

Rumors of solar module price increases have drawn attention, with JA Solar, JinkoSolar, and Trina Solar each issuing a response. Prices in some distribution channels have risen by approximately 1 to 4 fen per watt. Could the increases affect existing orders? How should buyers and distributors verify quotations, contracts, and delivery terms? This article reviews the companies’ responses and potential impact, helping you distinguish market rumors from actual transaction terms and plan future procurement and supply arrangements.

Pricing strategies diverge across the solar industry chain: wafer and cell producers are more inclined to hold prices firm, while module prices edge down under pressure from downstream demand. On October 30, 2026, the most-active polysilicon futures contract closed lower, but a single day’s futures performance does not represent the overall change in spot prices. Understand the key effects of tightening supply, demand pressure, and price transmission, and monitor subsequent changes in supply and demand and trends across each segment.
