The US Commerce Department has initiated antidumping and countervailing duty investigations on solar cell and module imports from India, Indonesia and Laos at the request of a group of US manufacturers.
A notice on the investigation is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on Aug. 12. Commerce will determine whether imports from the three countries are being dumped or unfairly subsidized, and the US International Trade Commission will assess whether the imports have caused injury to the US solar industry. The investigation was initiated on Aug. 7.
