The silicon metal price has been rising all the way, leading to a sudden increase in the number of silicon metal operations in Fujian this month. Some factories still insist on starting operations under the pressure of high-cost production. Most of the factories that have resumed work have signed orders and are not hesitant to sell. As prices enter the consolidation period, most factories in Fujian are currently selling goods and quotations are basically stable. Other factories said that because of high electricity prices, they dare not rush to sell at prices. For the moment, the start of construction in Fujian is already at a certain high level, and it is expected that the number of furnaces to be started in the later period will remain around 13 units.
