Flash: Yunnan silicon producers' operating rates stay low

SHANGHAI, Mar 7 (SMM) – Operating rates at silicon producers in Yunnan province remained low due to power shortage as it is still sometime away from the wet season, SMM learned. Among the main producing areas, Baoshan has the most operating plants, whereas six silicon producers are in operations in Dehong, and only one in Nujiang.

We believe there will be a few more plants coming back online in mid-to-late April, but output would not rise significantly until June when rainy season arrives.
