Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2026, the over - capacity of industrial silicon will not be fundamentally alleviated. High inventory will suppress prices, while the cost line will form a strong support. Supply - side policies are the biggest source of elasticity. The price range is expected to be 7500 - 9700 yuan/ton; under the scenario of strong policy stimulus, it will move up to 8500 - 10500 yuan/ton; under the scenario of unexpectedly weak demand, it will drop to 7000 - 7500 yuan/ton. The overall demand growth rate of industrial silicon will continue to slow down, but as the supply side also enters a contraction cycle, the overall supply - demand structure will become more balanced [3][40]. Summary by Directory Chapter 1: 2025 Industrial Silicon Market Trend Review - In 2025, the industrial silicon futures and spot markets showed a trend of "deep decline in the first half, hitting the bottom in June, and low - level volatile rebound from July to December". The average price of the futures main contract for the whole year was about 8800 yuan/ton, and the average comprehensive price of the spot was about 9200 yuan/ton. The futures and spot markets showed a pattern of spot premium for a long time. The spot market had multiple structural characteristics [9]. - In the first half of the year (January - June), the price dropped from a high level, and the supply - demand contradiction emerged. The average price of the 553 mainstream spot in January was about 9800 yuan/ton, falling below 9000 yuan/ton in March and reaching the annual low of 8600 - 8700 yuan/ton at the end of June. The 441 dropped from 11690 yuan/ton to 8620 yuan/ton, a decrease of 26.26%. The futures main contract SI2508/SI2510 started at about 10800 yuan/ton, fell below 10,000 yuan in March, and reached the lowest point of about 7015 yuan/ton on June 4, with a decline of about 36% in the first half of the year. The trading volume and open interest gradually shrank. The core driving factors were the natural decline in the off - season of downstream industries after the Spring Festival, the gradual release of new production capacity in 2024, and the lack of substantial production - capacity control policies [9][10]. - In the second half of the year (July - December), the price rebounded after hitting the bottom + low - level oscillation. The 553 mainstream spot price rebounded in July, rose to 9300 - 9500 yuan/ton from September to October, and stabilized at 9200 - 9300 yuan/ton (East China oxygen - blowing) in December. The futures main contract SI2601/SI2605 rebounded with cost repair and the expectation of production reduction in Southwest China from July, rose to 9000 - 9200 yuan/ton from September to October, and fell back to 8800 - 8900 yuan/ton in December. The trading volume and open interest increased. The core driving factors were the reduction in supply due to the rise in electricity prices during the dry season in Southwest China and the maintenance of some enterprises in Xinjiang, and the limited rebound amplitude due to high inventory [10]. Chapter 2: Analysis of the Supply - Demand Situation of Industrial Silicon in 2025/26 2.1 Supply Side: The Core Contradiction is Excess Supply, and Policy Regulation is the Catalyst - In November 2025, China's industrial silicon output was 401,700 tons, a year - on - year decrease of 11.2%. From January to November, the cumulative output reached 3.868 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 14.7%. In the early stage of the year, the output was low. After April, Xinjiang made significant production cuts. In June, the output of most provinces decreased. After August, the supply in the main production areas increased. In the fourth quarter, the output in Xinjiang remained high, while that in Southwest China decreased slightly. In November, the output decreased to around 400,000 tons [14]. - From January to November 2025, Xinjiang's cumulative output was 1.9248 million tons, accounting for 52.03%. Inner Mongolia's output was 438,900 tons, accounting for 11.86%. Gansu's output was 329,700 tons, accounting for 8.91%. Yunnan's output was 300,800 tons, accounting for 8.13%. Sichuan's output was 323,500 tons, accounting for 8.74%. With the implementation of anti - involution policies, the release of new production capacity in the future will be extremely limited [15]. 2.2 Demand Side: The Establishment of a New Polysilicon Platform Company Marks the Entry of the Photovoltaic Industry's Anti - Involution Governance into a Critical Stage - From January to November 2024, China's polysilicon cumulative output was 1.206 million tons, a cumulative year - on - year decrease of 27.3%. In the first half of the year, the polysilicon price was low. After June, enterprises were determined to stabilize prices. By mid - December, the price of P - type dense materials soared to 49 - 51 yuan/kg, and the price of N - type silicon materials rose to 49.6 - 55 yuan/kg, a year - on - year increase of 26.5%. On December 12, 2025, the "polysilicon production - capacity integration and acquisition platform" was officially established, which has great strategic value for rectifying the industry's "involution" [29][31]. 2.2.1 Organic Silicon Production Cuts to Support Prices Yielded Results, and the Supply - Demand Will Enter a Sustainable New Ecosystem - From January to November 2025, China's organic silicon DMC cumulative output was 2.272 million tons, a year - on - year increase of 4.6%. In the first half of the year, the organic silicon industry faced over - capacity and weak terminal consumption. In the third quarter, the price rebounded slightly. In the fourth quarter, after the anti - involution industry meeting, enterprises reached a consensus on a 30% production cut and jointly supported prices. The DMC spot price rose from 11050 yuan/ton at the beginning of the fourth quarter to 13600 yuan/ton. It is expected that in 2026, the output will increase limitedly, and the supply - demand will enter a sustainable new ecosystem [33]. Chapter 3: Outlook for the Industrial Silicon Market in 2026 - In terms of supply, in 2026, the national industrial silicon planned new production capacity will be only 700,000 tons, and the production capacity will further shrink. In terms of demand, the overall demand growth rate of industrial silicon will continue to slow down, but the overall supply - demand structure will become more balanced [3][40]. - The over - capacity will not be fundamentally alleviated, high inventory will suppress prices, the cost line will form a strong support, and supply - side policies are the biggest source of elasticity. The price range is 7500 - 9700 yuan/ton; under the scenario of strong policy stimulus, it will move up to 8500 - 10500 yuan/ton; under the scenario of unexpectedly weak demand, it will drop to 7000 - 7500 yuan/ton. The price will be strong during the dry season and Spring Festival stocking, pressured during the wet season when supply increases and polysilicon demand slows down, and will stabilize and rebound with inventory reduction and cost support [3][40].
