Core Viewpoint - The article highlights a significant increase in silicon wafer prices driven by supply contraction, demand recovery, and rising costs, with specific price changes noted for various types of silicon wafers and solar cells [1][2]. Price Changes - N-type G10L monocrystalline silicon wafer (182183.75mm/130μm) average transaction price is 1.2 yuan/piece, up 2.56% week-on-week [1][3]. - N-type G12R monocrystalline silicon wafer (182210mm/130μm) average transaction price is 1.31 yuan/piece, up 9.17% week-on-week [1][3]. - N-type G12 monocrystalline silicon wafer (210*210mm/130μm) average transaction price is 1.52 yuan/piece, up 1.33% week-on-week [1][3]. Market Dynamics - Supply reduction from silicon wafer manufacturers is expected to decrease production by approximately 5% in December compared to November, with companies controlling sales and showing a clear reluctance to sell at low prices [2]. - The significant rise in silver prices has led to an increase in downstream battery prices, with mainstream battery prices rising to 0.31-0.33 yuan/W, up 10.3% week-on-week [1][2]. - Despite the increase in silicon wafer prices, overall transaction volume remains limited due to cautious procurement strategies from component manufacturers and a lack of clear recovery in end-user demand [2]. Production Rates - The overall operating rate in the silicon wafer industry remains stable, with leading companies operating at rates of 50% and 48%, while integrated companies operate between 50% and 70% [2]. - If price transmission within the industry chain proceeds smoothly, the silicon wafer market is expected to continue its positive trend by the end of the month [2].
