The International Federation of Robotics (IFR) will publish on the 24th data showing roughly 7,000 humanoid robots were sold worldwide in 2025, covering only industrial and professional-service humanoids and excluding consumer, military and medical units. The IFR, which has compiled industrial and service-robot market data for almost 30 years, will for the first time report a separate humanoid-sales figure. Under the IFR definition a humanoid must be human-shaped (legs optional) and capable of autonomous operation in environments designed for humans. IFR secretary-general Susan Biller said many 2025 humanoids are not performing productive work but are being used by research institutes and companies to generate data to refine AI models. Refinitiv reported on the 21st.

TCL Zhonghuan New Energy Technology Co. and Suzhou Saiwu Application Technology Co. signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Suzhou to develop light‑converting encapsulant film. They will set up priority procurement and priority supply mechanisms and jointly pursue materials and technology innovation for high‑efficiency photovoltaic modules, prioritizing BC modules while covering the full TOPCon product range. The collaboration aims to improve module long‑term reliability and energy yield, strengthen product differentiation and expand global market presence.
