China's polysilicon market is in a freeze with no new transactions as eight major producers have agreed to a pricing pact to prevent price wars and establish a cost-based price floor, leading to a wait-and-see phase for price rebalancing.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy.

◆ The Wire takeaway

Polysilicon price stabilisation by China’s top producers rearranges market dynamics. You need to plan for delayed restocking and a firm price floor as customer buying slows but rebounds later this year.
