[MENA to add 50GW of utility-scale solar by 2030]The MENA country plans to add 49.5GW of installed utility-scale solar capacity by 2030. With more than 30GW of development or construction projects announced between Oman, Morocco and Kuwait, these jurisdictions will lead the region in utility-scale solar PV this decade. All announced solar and wind projects will add more than five times the current renewable energy capacity in the MENA region, with utility-scale solar capacity currently standing at 7.4GW. In addition, Oman also plans to build a 12.5GW solar photovoltaic project, which will be operational by 2038. Editor/Xing Wentao
Recently, Xinyangfeng, a leading producer of phosphate compound fertilizers, plans to invest 6.2 billion yuan in Jingmen, Hubei Province to lay out phosphate based new energy and new material projects.

Zhongjin Lingnan's performance in the first quarter of 2026 was impressive, with significant year-on-year growth in revenue and net profit. The company's annual production of 860000 high-purity semiconductor substrates project is progressing smoothly, with construction starting in 2023. Currently, it has entered the trial production stage and is expected to officially enter mass production in the second half of this year. The total investment of the project is 424 million yuan, covering three major categories of gallium arsenide, indium phosphide, and germanium. Relying on independent core technology, after production, it will fill the gap in domestic high-end substrate production capacity, break the overseas monopoly, and become a new performance growth point for the enterprise.Editor/Gong Ziwei
