US imposes 15% tariffs on imported polysilicon products

SolarNews Brief

The White House signed an order imposing a 15% tariff on products made from imported polysilicon and related products, according to Renewables Now. The measure also adds price floors and is intended to shield domestic manufacturing from Chinese influence in the solar supply chain.

The US order applies a 15% tariff to products made from imported polysilicon and related inputs, a core upstream material for solar manufacturing. It also introduces price floors, making the measure both a tariff action and a domestic-manufacturing protection tool. For solar buyers and manufacturers, the policy may affect module supply economics while reinforcing Washington's push to localise more of the PV value chain.
