On Wednesday, the U.S. International Trade Commission is to vote on
whether Chinese trade practices have injured the U.S. solar
industry. It's the final hurdle in a more than yearlong effort by
the U.S. to impose steep tariffs on Chinese solar panels. Washington imposed tariffs of up to 250 percent on imports of
Chinese-made solar panels this year to counter what it said was improper
subsidies to the industry, but those tariffs aren't finalized unless the ITC
votes to find harm to the U.S. industry. The disputes have added to financial pressure on Chinese and other solar
equipment producers that are suffering heavy losses due to lower sales and a
price-cutting war.
