US initiates anti-dumping probe on solar PV cell imports from India, Indonesia, Laos

The US Department of Commerce has initiated anti-dumping and countervailing duty investigations on solar PV cell and module imports from India, Indonesia and Laos during calendar year 2024. The decision was made after the Alliance for American Solar Manufacturing and Trade filed a petition on July 17. The countervailing duty (CVD) petitions by the industry body are concerning imports of crystalline silicon photovoltaic (PV) cells, whether or not assembled into modules (solar cells) from India, Indonesia and Laos. The petition was also accompanied by anti-dumping duty (AD) petitions on imports of solar cells from these three countries. Since the petitions were filed on July 17, the period of investigation for India, Indonesia and Laos (CVD investigations) is January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, it added, as per a report.
