Quick Glance: Major Workforce Reduction at California Solar Company
- SunPower Corporation is planning to reduce more than a quarter of its workforce to address a prolonged downturn in rooftop solar energy.
- The closure of residential solar installation sites and the discontinuation of the direct sales unit are part of a shift to a low fixed-cost model, as mentioned by SunPower's CEO Tom Werner in an employee memo on the company's website.
- The announcement comes a day after SunPower stated the need to reassess financial results spanning nearly two years, adding to a series of challenging developments for the pioneering solar industry leader.
- The rooftop solar energy industry is facing difficulties due to high interest rates increasing the cost of solar panel installations, and California, the largest solar market, has reduced payments to households and businesses selling excess solar energy back to the grid, significantly impacting the industry.

Quick Glance: TikTok Ban Threat: ByteDance Prefers Closure Over Sale, Insiders Say
- ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, would prefer to shut down its loss-making app rather than sell it if all legal options to fight legislation to ban the platform from app stores in the US are exhausted, said four sources.
- TikTok accounts for a small share of ByteDance’s total revenues and daily active users, so the parent would rather have the app shut down in the US in a worst-case scenario than sell it to a potential American buyer, they said.
- ByteDance would not agree to sell one of its most valuable assets – its “secret source” – to rivals, said the four sources, referring to the TikTok algorithm.
- After facing challenges regarding bans, the short-form video app has encountered partial and attempted prohibitions in the US and other nations.
