Zhong Guo Neng Yuan Wang·2026-02-10 01:24Core Viewpoint - The report highlights the growth in the solar and energy storage sectors, with significant export figures and production adjustments anticipated due to policy changes and market dynamics [1][4][5]. Production - Solar module production is expected to decrease by 13.58% month-on-month in December 2025, while there are plans for increased production due to export tax incentives, though actual implementation remains uncertain [2]. - Battery production for power, storage, and consumer applications is projected to be 188 GWh in February 2026, down 10.5% month-on-month, indicating a restructuring in supply with leading companies maintaining strong orders [2]. Pricing - As of February 4, 2026, the price of polysilicon remains stable at 54.00 CNY/kg, while the average price of 183N monocrystalline silicon wafers has decreased by approximately 7.41% to 1.25 CNY/piece [3]. - The average price of lithium battery storage systems in December 2025 is reported at 0.5882 CNY/Wh, reflecting a 2.82% increase month-on-month, with specific systems showing significant price variations [3]. Demand - In December 2025, solar module exports reached approximately $2.314 billion, marking an 18.22% year-on-year increase but a 4.05% month-on-month decline, while inverter exports totaled $839 million, up 26.12% year-on-year and 9.38% month-on-month [4]. - Domestic solar installations in November 2025 amounted to 22.02 GW, a 74.76% increase month-on-month, with cumulative installations for the year reaching 274.89 GW, a 33.25% year-on-year growth [4]. Investment Recommendations - The report suggests that the cancellation of VAT export rebates for certain products starting in April 2026 may boost domestic demand for solar products in the short term and lead to the elimination of outdated production capacity in the long term [5]. - Companies such as Sungrow Power Supply (300274), Chint Power (002150), and Nandu Power (300068) are recommended for investment, along with a focus on CATL (300750) and EVE Energy (300014) [5].
