光伏龙头企业密集减产自救,超三成玻璃产能已“休眠”

Core Viewpoint - The leading photovoltaic glass company, Fuyao (601865.SH), is actively responding to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's call to reduce photovoltaic glass production capacity to alleviate industry pressure and losses [1][3][4]. Industry Summary - The total cold repair capacity in the photovoltaic glass industry, including Fuyao's reduction, accounts for 32.18% of the domestic total capacity, with operational capacity currently below 87,000 tons per day [2][7]. - The industry is experiencing significant pressure, leading to a reality where production cuts are being implemented to reduce losses, with several companies announcing kiln shutdowns and production reductions [3][4][6]. - The competitive landscape has intensified, resulting in substantial price declines for photovoltaic glass products, which has led to ongoing losses for companies like Hainan Development and Fuyao [6][11]. - The overall production capacity in the photovoltaic industry is expected to continue declining, as the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology encourages leading companies to further reduce output [7][15]. Company Summary - Fuyao holds approximately 30% of the global market share in the photovoltaic glass sector and has seen a significant decline in gross margins due to falling prices since the second half of last year [4][11]. - The company is projected to report a net profit of 230 million to 280 million yuan for the first half of 2025, representing a year-on-year decrease of 81.32% to 84.66% due to industry overcapacity and intensified competition [11]. - Despite the challenges, Fuyao's production capacity utilization for 2024 is still expected to be 91.47%, indicating a relatively stable operational performance compared to other segments [8].
