TECO Westinghouse will build a 400 MW solar farm with a 100 MWh battery in New South Wales, adding roughly 0.5 GW of clean capacity and enough electricity to power about 150,000 Australian homes.

Cadmium telluride thin‑film panels now hit 21 % lab efficiency and cost under $0.30 /W, delivering a 3‑year payback for a typical 15 kW Israeli home system.

A record 664 GW of solar capacity was added worldwide in 2025, but growth slowed to 12% and a contraction is forecast for 2026 – the first such dip in over 20 years, with major implications for Israel’s solar market.

Photosol rebuilt the storm‑damaged Ychoux 2 solar farm in France, doubling its capacity without expanding its footprint, and the 77 MW complex will now generate about 97 GWh annually.

Vietnam will generate about 30,000 t of solar‑panel waste each year by 2030 and is already building recycling plants, new EPR laws, and a fast‑growing market worth roughly USD 120 million.
