First Solar and six other manufacturers allege that Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam are flooding the U.S. market with cheap solar cells that threaten the domestic industry.
The other six parties to the petition are Convalt Energy, Meyer Burger, Mission Solar, Qcells, REC Silicon and Swift Solar.The U.S. manufacturers have asked the International Trade Commission to issue a determination that the domestic solar industry has been harmed. They are requesting that the Commerce Department impose tariffs on solar cell imports from the four countries as a remedy.
Tariffs have divided the the U.S. solar industry. While manufacturers such as First Solar support tariffs on some imports, the Solar Energy Industries Association opposes them, arguing trade barriers raise prices, reduce installations and hurt jobs.
