QYJSSA/August 06,2023

In recent years, China's photovoltaic glass has maintained a share of over 90% in the global market, and is the largest producer of photovoltaic glass in the world. The upstream of photovoltaic glass industry is metameric powder, quartz sand and petrochemical industries. And the upstream of the industry is mainly raw material and fuel manufacturers; the midstream of the PV glass industry is the key enterprises of PV glass. Below we introduce the five key PV glass companies in terms of company profile, main products, production capacity, distribution of production bases, and company operations.
