HT International said that the industry as a whole is in a stage of clearing and adjustment, and the price may fluctuate as the concentrated signing of orders nears the end of the year, but the overall downward space is limited, and the bottom of the price has been clearly defined. The photovoltaic industry is accelerating its return to order, and the current policy has given clear guidance and measures to the photovoltaic industry in terms of both capacity and price. The industry is clearing itself and getting rid of the vicious competition of low prices, and the price is expected to rise after that. It is suggested to pay attention to the huge elasticity brought by the bottom turning point of photovoltaic.
