TaiyangNews PV Price Index – 2024 - CW33

Sticking to its recent trend of relative stability, the TaiyangNews PV Price Index saw another stable week in Calendar Week 33. 

Polysilicon prices have maintained their levels since seeing mid-single-digit price declines in CW25.

Like CW32, the p-type 210 mm was the only wafer type to see price movement in CW33, declining -2.9% WoW.

Prices for all cell types were flat WoW, while the TOPCon n-type 210 mm cell is down -3.0% MoM. 

After 4 weeks of no price movements, the TOPCon module category saw a decline of -2.5% in CW33. However, the module category has been the most stable one in the TaiyangNews PV Price Index this year. 

Solar glass prices were stable WoW, after the 3.2 mm solar glass declined -1.9% and the 2.0 mm (thinner) glass declined -4.2% in CW30. 

While there has been relative stability over the last 9 weeks, the TaiyangNews PV Price Index has seen considerable declines in CY2024. All Chinese polysilicon types have crossed the -40.2% mark YtD. Among wafers, the n-type 182 mm variant has lost exactly half its value YtD, at -50.0%. Declines in cell prices are approaching -40.0% YtD, while modules have been relatively stable so far this year, losing only up to -21.6%.
