Mono-si Supply Chain Begins Price Cut amid Divergent Market Demands: Price Trend

As of mid-July, downstream mono-si demands had remained sluggish for three weeks consecutively. Mono-si PV cell suppliers began to cut prices at larger scale this week, driving downward mono-si wafer prices, a development conducive to higher mono-si market share. Meanwhile, with price-hike momentum for multi-si wafers amid overstrained supply remaining high, market attention is on the pricing strategy of su.. more
