US finalises solar duty rates on imports from India, Indonesia and Laos

Commerce set final dumping margins of 123.04% for Indian suppliers, 94.36% for Indonesian suppliers, and 65.43% for exporters from Laos, with subsidy rates varying by country and producer. The Solar IV case was brought by the Alliance for American Solar Manufacturing and Trade, and the US International Trade Commission still has to complete its injury determination before final orders take effect. For developers and buyers, the decision adds another trade-policy constraint to US supply planning as domestic manufacturing, safe-harbour procurement, and import diversification are already under pressure.
