\u3000\u30002. new energy

In the first quarter of 2022, the demand of photovoltaic industry is strong

In the first quarter of 2022, the off-season of photovoltaic industry is not light, and the industry maintains a high Outlook:

1) the price of silicon material is strong and rises slightly. This week, the average transaction price of China’s single crystal re feeding was 246600 yuan / ton, up 6.4% from 231800 yuan / ton in early January, and the industry demand continued to be strong. According to the silicon industry branch, all silicon material enterprises signed long orders in March, and the transaction price showed an upward trend due to the relative shortage of silicon material supply;

2) the heat of household photovoltaic shall not be reduced. According to Zhihui PV, in December 2021 and January 2022, the shipment of inverters for household PV increased sharply within 50KW. It is expected that the new installed capacity of household PV in January 2022 will exceed 2gw, and the year-on-year increase is expected to exceed 545%;

The new output of silicon material is expected to be released, and the prosperity of the industry is expected to continue to rise. Throughout the year, with the gradual production of new production capacity of polysilicon manufacturers and the gradual promotion of technical transformation projects, the shortage of polysilicon supply may be alleviated, the subsequent supply capacity will be improved, the price of the industrial chain is expected to decline, the quantity and profit transmission of downstream links, the demand price elasticity of photovoltaic is expected to improve, and the prosperity of photovoltaic industry this year will continue to be optimistic.
