As of the end of April, the domestic silicon wafer inventory reached about 900 million pieces. Domestic silicon wafers continued to accumulate throughout the month, an increase of 125% compared with March.
High profits drove producers to maintain high operating rates, and leading companies operated at capacity. However, due to the high prices of silicon wafers, the purchasing enthusiasm of cell enterprises has been continuously reduced.
The market demand has gradually shifted from 182 mm to 210 mm products, resulting in a large accumulation of 182 mm silicon wafer inventory.
