Section 301 tariffs to be implemented in 2024 will take effect on 27 September, such is the case for solar cells.

The World Trade Organization (WTO) has rejected China’s challenges to US safeguard tariffs on certain crystalline silicon PV cells, ruling that the measures have not breached global trade rules.

US trade reps move once more to scrap reprieve for two-sided modules from Section 201 tariffs, but measure cannot come into force until last year’s court injunction is lifted.

India has officially appealed against the World Trade Organisation’s (WTO) ruling that upheld the US' finding that India’s Domestic Content Requirement (DCR) was discriminatory and in breach of international trade rules.

The US Trade Representative has spoken out about the next steps for the US in light of India preparing to file additional cases against the US over violation of World Trade Organisation (WTO) norms.

The World Trade Organisation (WTO) ruling in favour of the US on its complaint against India’s localisation rules for solar equipment, does “not affect the future course of action” that India is considering, Tarun Kapoor, joint secretary of India’s Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has told PV Tech.

Recent reports that the US and India are close to reaching an agreement in the trade dispute over India’s local content rules for solar equipment have been refuted by a top US trade official.
