Wafers were the only product type to see any changes in the TaiyangNews PV Price Index for Calendar Week 12. With more and more products seeing price changes Year-to-Date (YtD), the relatively stagnant trend seen so far this year is slowly changing into a declining one.
All polysilicon types listed maintained their prices Week-on-Week (WoW) in CW12. Granular silicon is up 2.5% Month-on-Month (MoM) and YtD, which broke its 12-week stagnant trend by gaining 2.5% in CW10. Chinese n-type polysilicon and reusable varieties are up 3.7% and 0.8% YtD, respectively.
3 of the 4 wafer types listed saw low to mid-single-digit declines in CW12. While the p-type 182 mm wafer declined the least at -2.5%, the n-type 182 mm wafers lost the most at -6.6% WoW.
Prices for PERC bifacial p-type 182 mm are down -2.6% MoM, but up 5.6% YtD. PERC bifacial p-type 210 mm is down -7.1% YtD.
While all module types listed continue to maintain their prices since CW5, they are down low- to mid-single-digits on a YtD basis.
After a 25-week period of stability, the 3.2 mm solar glass lost -8.9% in CW10, while the thinner product (2.0 mm) lost almost double that at -17.5%. They, however, maintained their prices WoW in CW12.
While product prices upstream have firmed up a bit YtD, the generally stable trend is slowly turning into a declining one. The balance between upward and downward movements has shifted more towards the latter, with 4 listed products showing gains vs. 11 showing losses. The magnitude of decline is higher for wafers and glass compared to cells and modules.
The data refers to average product prices in China. The data was collected by Chinese market research firm Gessey PV Consulting.
