Longi, which used to be the country’s biggest panel producer before the current crisis, has posted four straight quarterly losses and resorted to slashing staff and costs.The China Photovoltaic Industry Association, the country’s main solar industry body, called in October for rational pricing and urged companies to be more disciplined in bidding for projects. The group also said struggling manufacturers should exit the market as soon as possible.“We don’t think the current situation is sustainable for the sector, and the whole industry is also doing a lot of soul-searching on why the situation has happened,” Li said from the Peruvian capital of Lima, where he was attending the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The sector should take the initiative to “limit capacity a little to let the price return to a rational level,” he said.©2024 Bloomberg L.P.","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.29.3","shortVersion":"4.29.3","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2483976391"}
