China has decided to curb production capacity for polysilicon, the key raw material used in solar panels. A North American manufacturer is pressing pause on its plans to build out a solar cell manufacturing facility in Minnesota, opting instead to wait for more clarity from the incoming Trump Administration on the tax credits that made the project viable. Heliene CEO Martin Pochtaruk has confirmed to. The solar panel industry in the United States has been facing significant challenges in recent years, and the closure of another U. 65 new or expanded solar and storage facilities have come online in 2025.
