    Not only China's photovoltaic market continues to be cold, but the United States, Japan, Europe, India and other markets also have flat demand, the market still expects China's large-scale power stations to start bidding and pulling goods, and the order volume can begin to warm up
    .
    And the price decline this time is too deep, and it is necessary to wait for the inventory of the first-line manufacturers in the fourth quarter to be digested one after another, so that the demand can be reflected in the price, obviously the situation in October is not optimistic
    .

    Polysilicon in various places has begun to decline slowly as expected, and the subsequent decline in polysilicon will also drive the price
    of silicon wafers to continue to fall.
    And polysilicon prices are slower to reflect the current market conditions, and it is expected that the decline will intensify in the future, and it is difficult to see a rebound
    at the end of this year.

    Polysilicon wafer first- and second-tier factories only slightly reduced their operating rates in August, allowing inventories to continue to accumulate, and there was another wave of declines in September
    .
    In particular, the low operating rate of cell factories has also caused the volume of wafers to plummet, and wafer factories have driven prices down
    sharply this week in order to seek orders.
    China's price fell rapidly from RMB 4.
    7~4.
    9/pc last week to below RMB 4.
    5/pc, and Taiwan is also generally lower than US$ 0.
    62/pc.

    Cells are currently the deepest decline, and the transaction price makes the cell factory lose a lot of money, and the order is more than good
    .
    In September, the situation was more sluggish, monocrystalline almost no demand, Taiwan's cell factory operating rate continued to decline, the average operating rate was less than 50%, the price was also lower than US$ 0.
    215 / W, demand did not recover, inventory accumulation, but also made the cell price unable to bottom
    in September.

    Fortunately, China's "Frontrunner Program" needs to use high-efficiency batteries, single, multicrystalline PERC products have recently been highly inquired, although Taiwan's PERC mass production volume, and efficiency is second to none, but the decline in general batteries has also driven the price of PERC to drop significantly, the current conversion efficiency of 20.
    8% of the monocrystalline PERC price has reached US$ 0.
    28 / W, polycrystalline PERC is about US$ 0.
    255 ~ 0.
    26 / W
    .

    The spot price of China's domestic demand modules has reached RMB 2.
    95~3.
    15 / W, which is equivalent to about
    US$ 0.
    39 / W.
    The continued low prices have also affected the market with higher prices in the past, and the rapid decline in prices in the United States and Japan has made module manufacturers around the world also face great challenges
