In the 2022 annual report, San‘an Optoelectronics pointed out that "Hunan San‘an, as one of the few vertical manufacturing platforms for silicon carbide industry chain in China, includes long crystal substrate production epitaxial growth chip preparation packaging. The production capacity of silicon carbide has reached 12000 pieces/month, and the production capacity of silicon based gallium nitride is 2000 pieces/month. The second phase of Hunan San‘an project will be completed in 2023, and the supporting annual production capacity will reach 360000 pieces after reaching the production capacity

From 12000 pieces/month at the end of 2022 to 15000 pieces/month in May 2023, it can be seen that the production capacity of San‘an Optoelectronics silicon carbide has climbed smoothly.
