Summary:
2008 Deep Research Report on China Solar Grade Polysilicon Industry was published by solar industry research center in Jan 2008,it was a deeply research report on China and Global solar grade polysilicon industry chain. In the report, the following information will be included:

Global or China Polysilicon Manufacturing Process and related technology information;
2004-2012 Global and China Polysilicon Manufacturers capacity production and expansions
Market share by manufacturers by regions by technology (siemens etc);
Global and China Building or Planning Polysilicon new projects and related infomrations about these new comers;
2004-2012 global and China EG SG polysilicon supply demand and shortage
Global and China EG/SG Polysilicon Cost Price Profit and margin
USA EU Japan China etc regional polysilicon production and market share
Siemens FBR Sliane Metallurgical Method etc Polysilicon manufacturing process and their produtions and market share
12 items (such as revenue production technology shareholders etc) of each manufacturer
Feasibility of all new projects in the world and China
Polysilicon industry development trend(2008-2012) and related conclusions
 

Polysilicon is hot in China and in the world, Xinguang Guiye in Feb 2007, M.SETEK DCC in Dec 2007 have started their polysilicon commercial production and HOKU Nitol etc in 2009 will be the success new comer in polysilicon industry, and these new comer will also bring comparative capacity, but the market demand growth is far more faster than polysilicon supply growth. So polysilicon shortage will continue in the coming years and can not remove till 2012. Average Selling Price and spot market price of polysilicon will continue at a high level. Though a lot of new project in this industry, not all of them can get a success output because of technology problems; Siemens Method is the best process of all the polysilicon manufacturing process(such as FBR Sliane Metallurgical Method etc);so, the production of Siemens Method will own more market share in the coming years. China is a new comer and a star in Polysilicon industry in the world, the Production of China will rank No.2 (only after US) in 2012. Though polysilicon manufacturing process is very difficult, more new comers will enter this industry because of high profit margin.
