- Executive Summary
- Polycrystallion silicon, also known as
polysilicon or poly-Si, polysilicon is the purest
form of silicon and the second most abundant
element available in nature. It is a material
consisting of small silicon crystals which
differs from single-crystal silicon, used for
electronics and solar cells, and from amorphous
silicon, used for thin film devices and solar
cells. It is used as a feedstock material in
most solar energy applications. Polysilicon can
be segmented into three divisions by purity
grade Electronic Grade, Medium Grade, and
Upgraded Metallurgical Grade. The market is
divided into two segments by end user types PV
Industry and Semiconductor Industry. - Since the earliest iterations, the design of
photovoltaic cells has evolved to a great extent.
Silicon, which is also used in the
microelectronics industry, is the key raw
material used in the manufacturing of PVs. The
report covers the concerns over base and end
market of polysilicon industry on a global level
along with analysis of Chinese polysilicon
imports. - The key factors driving the growth of the
polysilicon industry are solar cell market,
semiconductor market and economic condition. Some
of the noteworthy trends of this industry are
decreasing production cost, decreasing
polysilicon prices and strong growth of the solar
PV market. However, the expansion of global
polysilicon industry is hindered by rising
industrial overcapacity, heavy capital
requirement, Chinas anti-dumping policy and
competition from substitutes. - The report Global Polysilicon Market provides
an in-depth analysis of the production, demand
and spot prices of the global polysilicon market
with focus on its end markets. The major trends,
growth drivers as well as issues being faced by
the industry are being presented in this report.
The major players in the industry, Wacker Chemie,
GCL Poly Energy and REC Silicon ASA are being
profiled.

followed by construction based use (x). While
1x of silicon is used by consumer based
industry, healthcare industry uses xx of total
silicone production. - The production cost of polymer industry is highly
fragmented with a large number of factors
contributing to the cost. Out of all, Energy used
alone makes to xx of the total cost while other
overhead costs and other hidden costs together
account for xx of the total cost.

2014. This demand is forecasted to grow by xx on
a y-o-y basis and reach nearly 329 thousand tons
by the end of 2016. - In 2014 Europe accounted for xx of total
cumulative PV installations down from xx in
2013, while cumulative installations in
China/Taiwan soared from xxx in 2013 to xx in
2014. - The global semiconductor demand was xx tons in
2015, slightly down from nearly xx thousand tons
in the year 2014. This demand is forecasted to
decline further to xx thousand tons by the end of
2016.
