According to the announcement, the main reasons for the growth of Xinjiang Daqo New Energy Co.Ltd(688303) performance during the reporting period are: in 2021, benefiting from the continuous promotion of the national “double carbon” policy, the overall photovoltaic market continued to grow, the production expansion and acceleration of downstream monocrystalline silicon wafer enterprises, the demand for high-quality polycrystalline silicon increased significantly, and the overall supply of high-purity polycrystalline silicon was in short supply, Therefore, the market price of polysilicon continues to rise.
During the reporting period, Xinjiang Daqo New Energy Co.Ltd(688303) existing production line maintained full capacity production. In addition, the phase III phase B expansion project was completed in December 2021 and produced 1111 tons of silicon material in that month. Therefore, the output of high-purity silicon material in the whole year was 86600 tons, an increase over the same period of last year. The silicon material market continued to be in short supply, so the company achieved an annual sales volume of 75400 tons, an increase over the same period last year, and the company achieved significant growth in performance.
silicon material prices continued to rise, and polysilicon enterprises expanded production madly
according to the data disclosed by China photovoltaic Association, the maximum increase of silicon material in 2021 was 224%, and the price of silicon material fell back to 230000 yuan / ton at the end of the year, an increase of 177% compared with the beginning of the year
Since the middle of January 2022, the price of silicon material has resumed its upward trend. According to the latest data disclosed by the silicon branch of China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, the price range of China’s single crystal re feeding last week was 2400 Shandong Molong Petroleum Machinery Company Limited(002490) 00 yuan / ton, and the average transaction price rose to 244900 yuan / ton, with a weekly increase of 0.78%; The price range of single crystal compact is 2380 Kingenta Ecological Engineering Group Co.Ltd(002470) 00 yuan / ton, and the average transaction price rises to 242400 yuan / ton, with a weekly increase of 0.71%.
