- Current status and prospects of the silicon industry in Asia
- As the major consumers of Chinese silicon metal, how will the markets in Asia develop in 2015? Will the demand for silicon metal from South Korea and Japan continue to increase?
- Current status and prospects of the silicon industry in Europe and North America
- The overall supply for silicon metal in Europe and North America was tight throughout 2014 as a reaction to decreased production in Brazil and South Africa, and consequently prices saw a sharp increase. Will the supply issues alleviate in 2015? Will demand increase despite higher prices?
- Chinese silicon metal market status and outlook
- The Chinese silicon metal market was strong in 2014; demand both at home and abroad increased. Chinese silicon metal prices increased throughout 2014 and output increased sharply. The production capacity of silicon metal in China will expand in 2015. Will the demand continue to increase?
- Chinese silicon metal export market trend
- Chinese silicon metal export volume in 2014 increased sharply YOY. In the first three quarters of 2014, China in total exported 645,785t of silicon metal, up by 27.07% against the 508,202t of the same period of last year. Will Chinese silicon metal gain more competitiveness in the global market in 2015?
- Analysis on silicon metal demand from the aluminum alloy industry in 2015
- How will the aluminum alloy market develop in 2015 and will the demand for silicon metal increase or not?
- How will the market for the global solar industry change in the future? Will the Chinese polysilicon industry continue to see recovery?
- The Chinese polysilicon industry recovered gradually in 2014. However, affected by the large import volume with lower prices, Chinese polysilicon producers still faced fierce competition. Will the Chinese polysilicon industry see noticeable improvements in 2015? Will the new policies have a substantial influence on the market or not? How could Chinese polysilicon enterprises make breakthroughs?
- Status quo of organosilicon industry development and influences on silicon metal industry
- Some organosilicon enterprises in China have plans of expanding capacity. How about the prospect of global organosilicon industry in 2015? Will the demand for silicon metal keep increasing or not?
