“The figure exceeded the previous record of 14 GW set in July 2025.”
INSUFFICIENT EVIDENCE
The claim states the previous record was set in 'July 2025'. However, the evidence from web search results explicitly states the previous record of 14GW was set in 'July last year' (relative to the April 6 event). Since the event happened in April, a record from July 2025 would be in the future and is logically impossible for a past record. The evidence contradicts the year 2025.
