Industry latitude and longitude: China's polysilicon industry will usher in a golden period of development

In recent years, the completion of a 300-ton-per-year polysilicon project at Luoyang Zhongyang Hi-Tech Co., Ltd. in Henan Province has marked a significant breakthrough in China's polysilicon industry. For many years, foreign countries had maintained a monopoly over polysilicon production technology, but this achievement has successfully challenged that dominance, signaling a positive shift in China’s industrial landscape. Not long ago, the China Electronic Materials Industry Association held a seminar in Beijing to discuss the "Eleventh Five-Year" technology development strategy for polysilicon materials. Experts at the event predicted that global demand for polysilicon would reach 70,000 tons by 2009. During the "Eleventh Five-Year" period, China is expected to experience a golden era for the rapid growth of its polysilicon industry. Silicon is a fundamental material in the semiconductor industry, with over 95% of semiconductor materials relying on it. As China continues to rise as a major producer of electronic products, the domestic semiconductor sector has seen remarkable growth. With increasing demand from integrated circuits and solar cells, the need for high-purity polysilicon has surged. In 2005, the integrated circuit industry required about 1,000 tons of electronic-grade polysilicon, while solar cells needed around 1,400 tons. By 2010, these figures are projected to rise to 2,000 tons and 4,200 tons respectively. To meet this growing demand and overcome the current production gap, experts suggest that building 2–3 thousand-ton polysilicon production lines in the next few years is essential. Currently, China’s annual production capacity is only around 100 tons, with outdated processes and limited scale, leading to heavy reliance on imports—over 95% of the supply comes from abroad. The rising cost of polysilicon has also become a bottleneck, threatening the stability of downstream industries like electronics and photovoltaics. The successful independent development of the 300-ton project by Luoyang Zhongyang Hi-Tech marks a critical step forward. It lays the foundation for future projects such as the "1,000-ton polysilicon project" and represents a milestone in China’s pursuit of technological independence. This achievement not only strengthens the company’s competitive edge but also sets a positive example for the industry. Globally, foreign manufacturers are continuously innovating, developing new processes, equipment, and technologies. This indicates that the world’s polysilicon industry is on the verge of a technological leap. However, Chinese companies cannot rely on foreign technology transfer or joint ventures. Instead, they must take the initiative to build their own R&D capabilities and develop advanced, proprietary polysilicon production technologies to break through the existing technological barriers. To accelerate the development of China’s polysilicon industry, the government must provide support for research and development, especially when domestic enterprises can match foreign costs. Companies and research institutes should actively seek opportunities, establish their own R&D centers, and participate in global competition. This will help build an independent intellectual property system and enhance the core competitiveness of domestic producers. Experts believe that the conditions for the growth of China’s polysilicon industry are now in place. With rare market opportunities and a favorable time for development, the industry is poised for rapid expansion. As a high-tech, capital- and technology-intensive sector, the polysilicon industry requires strong state support in areas such as taxation, funding, talent, and equipment. This will help eliminate foreign technological blockades and ensure the continued growth of China’s electronics, solar energy, and national information security sectors. In conclusion, the "Eleventh Five-Year" period presents a crucial opportunity for China to expand its polysilicon industry. Domestic companies and research institutions must seize this moment, invest in innovation, and work toward building a self-reliant and competitive polysilicon sector.
