China's photovoltaic industry has suffered "life and death"

Recently, the news that overseas PV companies are on the verge of bankruptcy is endless. Three US solar companies have declared bankruptcy before, including the California Solar Power Company, which is quite prestigious in the industry.

European debt crisis China's PV companies suffered "life and death"

At the beginning of the second deterioration of the European debt crisis, the industry's biggest concern was not the exchange rate risk of the depreciation of the euro, but the most important export target of China's PV products, and the European market share was thus compressed. According to the data, due to the uncertain PV subsidy policy in Germany and Italy, the PV installation in Europe was almost stagnant from January to May this year, and the installed capacity dropped sharply. Until the dust subsidy policy was settled in June, the European market installed capacity. There has been a slight rebound, but even so, Chinese companies still report that European orders have been unsatisfactory since the beginning of the year.

"The demand for the European PV market will be compressed due to the debt crisis. At the same time, other markets are unable to digest excess capacity. The PV industry, which is a major exporter of photovoltaic products, will suffer from the "cold winter" at the end of the year. Some PV companies will even greet the "life and death". "." Song Liang, an analyst at the China Merchants Productivity Promotion Center, said.

The root cause of the imbalance between supply and demand in the photovoltaic industry

When the industry boomed last year, large and medium-sized enterprises launched new projects, and the production capacity was now released, which aggravated the reversal of the supply and demand relationship in the photovoltaic industry. The fundamental cause of the current industry downturn is the fundamental imbalance between supply and demand in the solar market. The fundamental imbalance is that when the industry boomed last year, this year's production capacity has seriously exceeded its demand. Recently, a number of domestic listed companies have increased their investment in the photovoltaic industry. In the future, with the intensive release of project capacity, companies will have to face fierce competition, as well as risks of overcapacity and falling product prices.

At present, more than 90% of the entire photovoltaic industry's products are used for export, and are highly dependent on the international market. In the real situation of a serious overcapacity, it is difficult to reverse the current supply and demand situation by starting domestic demand. Even if China's PV market has a rapid growth every year according to the requirements, it is still not enough to make up for the vacancy in the market. However, the positive market in China may play a certain role in regulation.

Competition intensifies the low-cost killing of domestic enterprises

According to statistics, the number of enterprises engaged in the photovoltaic industry in China is close to 600, and well-known enterprises such as Wuxi Suntech, Baoding Yingli and Jinan Linuo have emerged, including high-purity polysilicon manufacturing, silicon ingot and wafer production, battery manufacturing, and photovoltaic modules. The complete industrial chain such as packaging and photovoltaic system application, the production process and related technologies have been greatly improved. With the increasingly fierce competition in the industry, the living environment of small and medium-sized enterprises will deteriorate, and mergers and acquisitions will occur in the industry. In the next few years, the market concentration of the photovoltaic industry will be greatly enhanced, and industry integration will bring new benefits to the photovoltaic industry. In the process of the market structure, leading enterprises are expected to benefit significantly.

Excessive domestic PV production capacity is competing for smaller and smaller European PV cakes, which makes the company face the problem of low export profits caused by the “malignant price reduction” of domestic PV counterparts even if it receives European orders.

In fact, the root cause of the domestic “crack” in the photovoltaic industry, the words of a standing director of the China Renewable Energy Society can fully explain: “In the past few years, Chinese PV companies have completed an industry from growth to maturity in a short time. In the long process, there is a need for integration and shuffling. However, at present, there are still huge profits in China's PV industry chain, and the future of the industry chain will be reshuffled after the decline in profits."

If the European debt crisis is suppressed in the later period, in the short term, domestic PV companies can continue to coexist for a period of time, but in the long run, this process of survival of the fittest must be experienced.

To be sure, the era of high gross profit in the photovoltaic industry is over. Chinese companies should be aware of their own advantages and further form alliances to better control the market, not only selling polysilicon, but also producing more solar products with complete products. This is the key to gaining more profits from foreign companies, producing the final product, not just monocrystalline silicon. China's polysilicon industry needs integration and alliances, otherwise the future prospects will still face instability. If you want to have strong growth, have considerable profits, and control the industry, the key is not just supply. Polysilicon raw materials, but to manufacture end products.

Even so, in the next few years, the industry will surely usher in a big prosperity and the problems behind prosperity. For PV companies, industry reshuffle is inevitable, and only those companies that can grasp the domestic market and have long-term development plans will laugh at the end.  

Use and performance of Graphite electrodes

use

Used in steelmaking electric arc furnace, refining furnace, as conductive electrode; Used for industrial silicon furnace, phosphorus furnace and corundum furnace, as conductive electrode.

performance

High resistance to thermal shock and high mechanical strength

grade

High Power Graphite Electrode (SHP) high power Graphite Electrode (UHP) with high power graphite electrode (HP) with high power graphite electrode (R

Precautions for use of graphite electrodes

1. According to the capacity of the electric furnace and the load of transformer, the grade and diameter of the electrode are suitable

2. When loading the electric furnace, the bulk charge shall be placed in the bottom of the furnace so as not to break the electrode. In the process of smelting, the lime should not be conductive. Large masses of objects are concentrated directly below the electrode, otherwise it will affect the electrode and even cause the electrode to break.

3. Attention should be paid to the position of the furnace cover. If the furnace cover is offset, the cover of the furnace will be blown on the lifting electrode, causing the electrode to be damaged.

4. When connecting the electrode, if the defect of joint bolt is found, the connection should be made after replacement

5. After the electrodes are connected, if there is a gap in the connection surface, it is important to find out the reason

6. The electrode should be used vertically.

7. The electrode holder shall be sandwiched between the upper and lower levels of the top electrode, and shall not be sandwiched between the warning line and the middle electrode. Otherwise, the electrode column is easily broken

8. The raw materials and production techniques of different manufacturers may vary. The physical and chemical properties of the electrode are also different, and it is recommended that the joints and electrodes produced by different manufacturers should not be used in a different way.
