August pricing adds context
Hanwha Solutions (KR7009830001) sits with a market cap of KRW 5.5 trillion and a share price of KRW 33,750 in the latest August 2026 peer snapshot, while the same page shows a 1-month move of 40.9% and a year-to-date gain of 33.0%.
The broader energy backdrop also improved in late August 2026: one research note dated August 31, 2026 listed WTI at $83.3 per barrel, Brent at $89.6 and the spot refining margin at $32.8, all of which support the framing around petrochemical and energy-linked names.
Solar prices stay supportive
In the same August 2026 industry sheet, Chinese solar module pricing was shown at $0.300 and U.S. modules at $0.27, while Chinese polysilicon came in at $5.27 per kilogram, down 4.36% week over week.
That mix matters for Hanwha Solutions because the company remains exposed to solar manufacturing economics and upstream cost swings, and the August data suggest a market that is still pricing a wide gap between module pricing and polysilicon input levels.
A separate August 2026 product table showed wafer pricing at $0.16 and cell pricing at $0.05, adding another layer of context for the solar chain that feeds the group's renewable segment.
Margins and peers
Peer valuation data in the same August 2026 report placed Hanwha Solutions at KRW 33,750, versus LG Chemical at KRW 277,000 and OCI Holdings at KRW 274,500, which underlines how far the stock still trades below larger Korean chemical peers on an absolute price basis.
The valuation table also showed Hanwha Solutions at a market cap of $5.5 billion, a 1-week gain of 5.3% and a 3-month gain of 11.3%, giving investors a clean cross-check against the more volatile solar supply-chain backdrop.
Product to watch
One representative business line is the company's solar module franchise, which is directly tied to module pricing, polysilicon input costs and the pace of U.S. and Chinese demand shown in the late-August industry snapshots.
Closing levels
Hanwha Solutions traded at KRW 33,750 in the latest August 2026 peer data, with the same snapshot showing a market cap of $5.5 billion and a year-to-date gain of 33.0%.
