This week, the mainstream transaction price for P-type dense polysilicon was 35-38 yuan/kg, and for N-type silicon material, it was 40-44 yuan/kg. Overall, polysilicon prices remained stable this week, with limited high-price resource transactions. Currently, companies like Tongwei and Daqo face high inventory risks with quotes at 42 yuan/kg, while New Special's quote is 40 yuan/kg, with relatively low inventory. Current wafer prices show signs of "collapse," unfavorable for a new round of polysilicon pricing.

Shandong has recently moved to adjust its spot-market price floors, industrial and commercial time-of-use tariffs, and operating rules for energy storage co-located with renewable energy stations. Although the three policies target differently, they all address the same challenge.The policies do not mark a return to mandatory storage requirements, but they do increase the downside price exposure of non-mechanism PV volumes and strengthen the need to shift electricity across time.
