Polysilicon 2015-2018: Supply, Demand, Cost and Pricing

After enduring a traumatic period of sustained overcapacity and price troughs in 2011-2013, the global polysilicon market has rebounded strongly in 2014. An uptick in pricing and renewed confidence in end-market growth has spurred the resumption of capacity expansion plans (Wacker, OCI, Tokuyama) and previously shuttered plants (Elkem, LDK, Hankook). Additionally, a slew of new entrants (SMP, Hanwha, QST) are poised to join the market, making for a dynamic, multi-tiered competitive landscape with significant variation in supply capabilities, manufacturing costs, and purity profiles. Details of the new report, table of contents and ordering information can be found on Electronics.ca Publications" web site. View the report: Polysilicon 2015-2018: Supply, Demand, Cost and Pricing.
