On October 19, several solar cell and panel manufacturers in the US filed applications with the US Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission to conduct anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigations into Chinese solar cells (panels) imported from the US. Yesterday, the head of the Bureau of Fair Trade for Import and Export of the Ministry of Commerce told reporters that he hoped the US government would abide by its commitment to oppose trade protectionism and avoid taking relevant measures.

To promote and promote the use and development of clean energy in the United States, the United States is also making the largest investment in renewable energy in history, and has developed measures and policies to promote it. The United States has also passed a new energy and climate bill to that end, the official said. The US has no reason to criticize other countries for their efforts to improve the human environment. Instead, it should work with other regions to strengthen cooperation in the field of solar energy and jointly address climate and environmental challenges.

According to a recent research report sponsored by the Solar Energy Industries Association of the United States, US exports of solar cell production equipment and raw materials far exceeded US imports of solar cells, resulting in a trade surplus of $1.88 billion, the official said. If Chinese solar cell (panel) products cannot continue to be exported to the United States due to the tax measures adopted by the United States, it is bound to greatly affect the export of related production equipment and raw materials from the United States to China. The result is lose-lose, which will adversely affect the economic and trade interests of both countries.
