Request company profile for validation →According to Cognitive Market Research, the global Metallurgical silicon market size is USD 6351.2 million in 2024 and will expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.00% from 2024 to 2031.
Metallurgical silicon, often referred to as metallurgical-grade silicon (MG-Si), is a crucial raw material in the production of silicon-based alloys and other industrial applications. It is primarily derived from the reduction of quartz in electric arc furnaces, yielding silicon with purity ranging from 95% to 99.9%. This material serves as a key component in the manufacturing of aluminium alloys, silicones, and semiconductors. Its properties, including high thermal conductivity, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and excellent corrosion resistance, make it indispensable in various metallurgical processes. The metallurgical silicon market is influenced by factors such as technological advancements, global demand for industrial applications, and the availability of raw materials.
The global shift towards renewable energy sources, particularly solar power, is poised to significantly increase sales in the metallurgical silicon market. With increasing awareness of environmental sustainability and the pressing need to mitigate climate change, governments and businesses are investing heavily in solar energy infrastructure. Metallurgical silicon is a crucial component in the production of solar panels, driving demand for the material. As solar power installations continue to rise worldwide, fuelled by favourable policies, declining costs, and technological advancements, the demand for metallurgical silicon is expected to experience substantial growth, creating lucrative opportunities for market expansion and development.
In February 2024, JFE Steel Corporation and JSW Steel Limited announced the establishment of JSW JFE Electrical Steel Private Limited. They jointly held a ground-breaking ceremony at the site earmarked for the construction of the new facility in India.
