Kessler Assistant Secretary for Enforcement and Compliance FROM: James Maeder Deputy Assistant Secretary for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Operations SUBJECT: Decision Memorandum for the Preliminary Results of the Administrative Review of the Countervailing Duty Order on Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Cells, Whether or Not Assembled Into Modules, from the People’s Republic of China; 2017 ______________________________________________________________________________ I. SUMMARY The Department of Commerce is conducting an administrative review of the countervailing duty (CVD) order on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not assembled into modules (solar cells) from the People’s Republic of China (China), covering the period of review (POR) January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017. The mandatory respondents are JA Solar Technology Yangzhou Co., Ltd. (JA Solar) and Risen Energy Co., Ltd. (Risen Energy). This is the sixth administrative review of the CVD order on solar cells from China. We preliminarily find that JA Solar and Risen Energy received countervailable subsidies during the POR. If these preliminary results are adopted in the final results of this review, we will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to assess countervailing duties on all appropriate entries of subject merchandise during the POR. Interested parties are invited to comment on these preliminary results. Unless the deadline is extended pursuant to section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act), we will issue the final results of this review by no later than 120 days after the publication of these preliminary results in the Federal Register.

  • Reclaiming the US Solar Supply Chain from China by Jeff Ferry, Chief Economist – Coalition for a Prosperous America
    Coalition for a Prosperous America Reclaiming the US Solar Supply Chain from China By Jeff Ferry, Chief Economist – Coalition for a Prosperous America Key Points • Several US solar module manufacturers have ramped up production substantially in the last three years under the stimulus of the Section 201 safeguard tariffs on solar module imports, leading US producers to achieve a 10-year high in market share of 19.8% in 2019, a noteworthy achievement. • The Section 201 solar tariffs have had no negative impact on the US market for solar energy installations, which grew 43% in 2020. Solar installations are set to be more than 50% greater than they were expected to be prior to the implementation of the 201 tariffs in 2017. • However, Chinese manufacturers continue to hold a dominant, near-monopoly, position in several important sectors of the upstream solar supply chain, endangering the health and future of the US solar industry. China continues to raise the stakes with large subsidies supporting billions of dollars of Chinese solar industry expansion. Beijing’s goal is global dominance of this industry. • Chinese dominance threatens US energy independence and US technology leadership in solar and other clean energy technologies. It also threatens our semiconductor industry, which relies on polysilicon as a raw material. • The US government should implement policies designed to secure the long-term future of an end-to-end US solar supply chain, using a mixture of incentives, tax credits, government procurement policies, and tariffs. These policies should be explicitly long-term. They should not be conditional on any foreign nation’s behavior.

  • Reshuffling of the Market
    PHOTOVOLTAICS SILICON AND WAFER MANUFACTURERS Reshuffling of the market Japan. “In 2010, the region arrived at a market share of 11 %. That share will increase to 16 % by the end of 2011 and reach the 26 % mark by 2015.” Profit warning in Europe Meanwhile, the first solar companies in the wafer segment are reacting to the new trend. In particular, the manufacturers with production locations in Europe have been attracting attention with their an- nouncements. One example is the UK-based PV Crystalox Solar, a silicon and wafer manufacturer, which recently published a profit warning for the sec- ond half of 2011. PV Crystalox Solar warned that op- erative losses could occur as a result of the meagre supply situation in the second half of the year, which had been considerable lower than expected in May. On the level of the end consumer, the demand has In the wafer segment, the companies meanwhile greatly decreased, says the company. tend to pair the expansion of their When compared to the previous year, the installed PV capacities with an increased level of capacities in Germany alone have dropped by 50 % vertical integration.

Despite global solar market likely growing by single digits in the next few years, we expect demand for Mono-Silicon (mono-Si) solar components to more than double during 2016-20, driven by market share expansion (from 25% to 50%) due to its superior cost efficiency over competing multi-silicon (multi-Si) technology. Such a trend should benefit mono-Si wafer manufacturers (led by LONGi) with strong volume and earnings growth, while multi-Si rivals (such as GCL Poly) may suffer from shrinking demand. ■ Rising distributed solar in China. For China's solar operator market, another major change we expect is the shift from ground-mounted solar farms to distributed solar (largely rooftops). Such a trend is warranted by a lower land requirement, limited power curtailment and lucrative returns for distributed solar (an equity IRR of >15% vs 10% for solar farms). We believe that the forecasted 55% capacity CAGR (60GW target by 2020) during 2016-20 for distributed solar should help to drive up demand for mono-Si products (extra 100-200 bp IRR gains).
