Following a break in Calendar Week 40, the TaiyangNews PV Price Index remains unchanged in Calendar Week 41.

The Chinese n-type silicon is up 3.9% MoM, while all the other listed types are stable MoM.

While 3 wafer varieties maintain their prices MoM, the p-type 210 mm variant is down 1.7% and the n-type 182 mm is up 3.7% MoM.

The PERC cell types are down high single-digits MoM, while the TOPCon cells have seen flat to low-single-digit declines MoM.

As with cells, PERC module prices are down in the high single-digit range, while those for n-type are down low single-digits MoM.

The 3.2 mm (thicker) solar glass declined 4.3% WoW from CW38 while the 2.0 mm (thinner) glass was down 7.1% WoW.

The TaiyangNews PV Price Index has seen greater price declines upstream than downstream in CY2024. All Chinese polysilicon types have crossed the 39.3% price decline mark YtD. Even with small increases this week, the n-type wafers have lost over 51.3% of their value thus far this year. The TOPCon 182 mm cell (down 43.8% YtD) is down disproportionately among cell types. The declines for module prices have ranged from 21.8% to 29.1% YtD. And finally, solar glass prices have declined in the 21.4% to 35% range YtD.

The data refers to average product prices in China. The data was collected by Chinese market research firm Gessey PV Consulting.
