According to the latest investigation by the market research organization Energy Trend, the spot price of solar cells has continued to rise recently. Manufacturers have indicated that signs of price rebound have appeared. Currently, the factories are negotiating the contract price in March, and the estimated price can come to $1.3/Watt-$1.25. /Watt interval. In the survey, the prices of silicon solar cells all increased at the same time. The average transaction price of Cell rose 2.36% this week, and the average transaction price came to $1.21/Watt. In addition, the price of the module also rebounded synchronously, with an increase of 1.64. %. In the case of silicon wafers, the transaction price was above $3.5/Watt, the average price of polysilicon wafers was up 1.18%, while the single-crystal silicon wafers were up 2.09%. For polysilicon, the average price returned to $70/kg, an increase of 2.47%.
However, in the silicon film and solar inverter, the average price showed a downward trend. According to the investigation of Energy Trend, the current price of silicon thin film has come to around $1.3/Watt, of which the price competition in India and Thailand is under the greatest pressure. There have been reports that manufacturers offer less than $1.2/Watt, but in Europe, The price remains stable. In terms of solar inverters, the current supply and demand conditions are normal. The delivery period is about one month, and the average price is maintained at $0.29/Watt, a small drop of 1.02%.
Energy Trend also pointed out that the policy adjustment in the German market has been determined, the maximum rate of subsidy subsidies does not exceed 15%, and it is expected that there will be opportunities for early pulls in the second quarter, but whether the demand in the German market will be affected by policy adjustments in the second quarter of this year. The outbreak in the first half remains to be observed. In addition, the previous rumored installation ceiling was not included in this adjustment, but the German market's growth rate at 2Q has not been significantly reduced due to the subsequent policy cut. Energy Trend believes that the number of installations is limited to 2012. There is an opportunity to appear in the German market.
