1.Power resource supply. The core cost of industrial silicon is power supply. It takes about 13,000 kilowatt hours of electricity, which is the largest cost source of industrial silicon production. Power rationing will affect the supply of industrial silicon.
2.Cost factors. The raw materials of industrial silicon mainly include silica and reducing agent, among which the price of silica is low, which has little impact on the price of industrial silicon. Another main raw material for the production of industrial silicon is reductive agent. The whole coal process is usually adopted in the main producing areas of China. The price increase of cleaned coal will directly affect the production cost of industrial silicon.
3.Downstream demand. Benefiting from the rapid development of photovoltaic industry, the downstream demand of industrial silicon, especially polysilicon, is strong in recent years, which has brought great room for rise to the price of industrial silicon. In the future, with the boom fluctuation of photovoltaic and other industrial silicon downstream industries, the price of industrial silicon will also fluctuate accordingly.
4.National policy orientation. Under the background of "double carbon", the industrial silicon industry will still face the contradiction of supply disturbance caused by the "double control of energy consumption" and the continuous increase of photovoltaic industry demand, and the optimization of industrial structure will also affect the supply of industrial silicon.
In general, the silicon metal market is in good expectations, the cost support is weakened, the factory is highly motivated to start, it is expected that the short-term silicon metal price is stable and strong, pay attention to the changes in downstream demand.
