Of first- and second-tier Taiwan-based crystalline silicon solar cell makers, some have upward adjusted quotes from US$0.33-0.34/W to US$0.35-0.36/W for high-efficiency models with an average energy conversion rate of 17.6% while others have kept quotes unchanged, according to industry sources.
Mainly due to the negative impact of US anti-dumping tariffs, quotes for 17.6% high-efficiency solar cells dropped from US$0.40-0.41/W in June to US$0.33-0.34/W in late September, the sources indicated.
For solar cells with relatively low efficiencies with an average energy conversion rate of 17.2%, most second- and third-tier makers are inclined to lower quotes from US$0.315-0.32/W to US$0.31-0.305/W, the sources said.
