The price of a Chinese solar module has hit its all-time low, with the Chinese Module Marker (CMM) going down for the fourth week in a row to $0.173 per W. The CMM fell by 11.73% from one week to the next, which was the biggest drop in its history. The falling trend has been helped by the fact that there are too many modules on the market, especially in Europe. China’s polysilicon prices have also gone down a lot and are getting close to the CNY60/kg mark. Industry experts think that module prices will continue to go down, but that they will level off in the next three months.
