The Ministry of Commerce announced on November 1 that it decided to conduct countervailing investigations and anti-dumping investigations on imported solar grade polysilicon originating in the EU from now on, and will conduct a "double-reverse" investigation on polysilicon products from the United States and South Korea. Conduct a combined investigation. Data show that in the first three quarters of this year, China's total imports of polysilicon reached 64,500 tons, calculated at an average price of 26.5 US dollars / kg, with a total value of about 10.7 billion yuan, of which the United States, South Korea and the European Union accounted for 95%, which means The two surveys of the Ministry of Commerce involve a total import value of over 10 billion yuan. According to the announcement of the Ministry of Commerce, four polysilicon enterprises including Jiangsu Zhongneng, Jiangxi Saiwei LDK, Luoyang Zhongsi, and Chongqing Daxin Energy were filed for the “double-reverse†application. From January to June 2012, the total output of these four enterprises It is 28,484 tons, accounting for 79% of the total domestic production of 36,230 tons. The “double-reverse†survey is mainly for solar-grade polysilicon used to produce crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, and electronic grade polysilicon used to produce semiconductor products such as integrated circuits and discrete devices is outside the scope of this survey. China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association Silicon Industry Branch data show that in 2008, China imported 3,932 tons of polysilicon from the EU, but it increased to 14,643 tons in 2011, an increase of about 4 times in three years. At an average price of $60/kg, the total value exceeds RMB5.5 billion. Since 2012, the EU PV industry has been sluggish, which has led to a further increase in the export of polysilicon to the EU. According to the latest customs statistics, the cumulative import volume from January to September reached 64,500 tons, a year-on-year increase of 32.9%. In terms of import unit price, the average price of polysilicon imports in September reached a new low of 23.66 US dollars / kg, down 2. 4% from the previous month, and the import price of polysilicon from January to September was also lowered to 26.5 US dollars / kg, compared with 2011. The average annual price fell by 55%. Among them, the EU's cumulative import volume reached 17,485 tons, with a total value of about 3.4 billion yuan. In Germany alone, the total amount of polysilicon exported to China in the first nine months of this year reached 16,047 tons, exceeding the total export volume of the EU last year. In September, there was a burst of growth, hitting a record high of 3,992 tons, a month-on-month increase of more than 155%. The China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association Silicon Industry Branch expects that the annual import of polysilicon will exceed 85,000 tons, even reaching more than 90,000 tons, an increase of more than 30%. On the contrary, domestic annual production will fall to around 60,000 tons, down 25% year-on-year. According to Lu Biaojin, deputy general manager of Jiangsu Zhongneng, there are 11 EU polysilicon enterprises involved in the survey, including 5 in Germany, 4 in Italy, and 1 in France and Spain. Among them, the largest number of products entering China is the German polysilicon giant Wacker C hem ieA G. They have received a number of government subsidies and policy loans in the past. Take WackerC hem ie AG as an example. Since 2001, the total amount of futures subsidies has reached 400 million euros. In 2002, 2008 and 2009, three policy loans were also received from the European Investment Bank (European Investency Bank) with a total loan principal of 850 million euros. The continued dumping behavior abroad has affected the entire polysilicon industry order. According to the statistics of the Silicon Industry Branch of the China Nonferrous Metals Industry Association, among the 43 polysilicon enterprises that have been put into operation in China, only 8 of them are still in production, and the enterprises still producing are not fully loaded, of which the largest in China. Polysilicon enterprise Jiangsu Zhongneng has already had a small number of production capacity shutdowns, and the operating rate will further decline in the fourth quarter. Sichuan Yongxiang and Sichuan Ruineng also plan to stop production and maintenance in November, while the remaining Xinjiang Special Transformer, Xinjiang Daquan, Shaanxi Tianhong, and Inner Mongolia Dunan are also debugging new production lines with a small amount. Product supply market. It is estimated that by the end of 2012, there will be fewer than five companies that can continue to maintain production, and the entire domestic polysilicon industry is facing a stage of life and death. It is understood that the Ministry of Commerce has agreed to take retrospective measures for the first three months of the preliminary ruling of polysilicon in the United States and South Korea. The four Chinese companies that initiated the “double-reverse†investigation of the EU polysilicon will also apply for the same retroactive levy on the EU polysilicon to prevent the United States, South Korea, and the European Union from conducting excessive drastic dumping on the Chinese market during the investigation. Zhao Jiasheng, vice president of the China Nonferrous Metals Association, said that Hem lock, ME MC, REC, Wacker Chemie AG and other overseas polysilicon giants have a long history and earned profits for several years with a profit of more than ten times. The rise of China's polysilicon industry is less than five years. Enterprises have not only failed to catch up with the abnormal price period, but also bear huge loans from the previous investment. In this vicious price war from the overseas polysilicon giant hair, the durability of domestic companies is clearly at a disadvantage.
