Description

The U.S. International Trade Commission has scheduled the final phase of antidumping and countervailing duty investigations to determine if imports of crystalline silicon photovoltaic products from India, Indonesia, and Laos materially injure or threaten U.S. industry. The products under investigation include crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells and modules, with specific exclusions detailed in the notice. The investigations follow preliminary determinations by the Department of Commerce that these products are subsidized and sold at less-than-fair-value. The final phase includes hearings and opportunities for interested parties to participate.
