The EU has confirmed that it will pursue ways to support the European solar manufacturing industry, following discussions today (4t March) between the European Commission and solar industry representatives.
Members of the European Parliament, the ESMC and Uyghur representative groups discussed the alleged ongoing forced labour and exploitation of the Uyghur population in Xinjiang province.
The European Solar Manufacturing Council (ESMC) has written an open letter to the EU calling for “robust regulation” of forced labour in the solar supply chain.
