$PLAY Solar panel production costs are soaring due to silver:
$SOMI Silver now accounts for a record 29% of total solar panel costs, up dramatically from 15% last year as silver prices have more than tripled.
For context, silver’s share was 11% in 2024 and 3% in 2023, making it now the largest cost component, surpassing aluminum, glass, and resins.
As a result, solar manufacturers are raising prices and looking to replace silver with cheaper alternatives like copper. Silver’s historic rally is now reshaping the solar industry and broader economy.
