Loading... WASHINGTON, D.C. — August 12, 2024 — In a strategic move to strengthen the U.S. solar industry, President Joe Biden issued a proclamation today expanding the tariff-rate quota (TRQ) on imports of crystalline silicon photovoltaic (CSPV) cells.
The Proclamation also preserves the exemption of bifacial solar panels from the safeguard measure, and authorizes the US Trade Representative (USTR) to negotiate agreements with Canada and Mexico that could lead to the exclusion of those countries from the safeguard remedy. This alert provides an overview of the Proclamation.
The new measure, which increases the TRQ from 5 gigawatts (GW) to 12.5 GW annually, is aimed at supporting domestic solar manufacturers as they face increasing global competition. The change, set to take effect on August 1, 2024, will allow for a higher volume of CSPV cell imports without triggering additional safeguard tariffs.
The change, set to take effect on August 1, 2024, will allow for a higher volume of CSPV cell imports without triggering additional safeguard tariffs. This adjustment is expected to benefit U.S. solar module producers who currently depend on imported CSPV cells due to limited domestic production capabilities.
Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic (CSPV) Cells and Modules as specified in the Presidential Proclamation signed February 4, 2022. QUOTA PERIOD for CSPV Cells: February 7, 2022 through February 6, 2023. RESTRAINT LEVEL: For CSPV cells, an annual aggregate quantity of 5.0 gigawatts. REPORTING INSTRUCTIONS: CSPV cells (quota)
The Proclamation extends the safeguard measure for four years (the maximum period allowed by law), but reduces its restrictiveness by doubling the volume of the tariff-rate quota (TRQ) on imported CSPV cells to five gigawatts (GW).
