Commerce reviews narrow duty exclusion for Chinese portable solar panels
Updated · Impact score 69/100 · Confidence 55%
Commerce opened changed-circumstances reviews that could partially revoke four China solar-cell and solar-product AD/CVD orders for specified off-grid portable panels rated at 200 watts or less. The initiation does not create an exclusion or change current deposits.
Why it matters
The proposed exclusion is tightly defined by power, size, connector, inverter, and retail-packaging criteria. Importers and domestic producers have until 5 p.m. eastern on August 12 to address industry support and the proposed language on all four Commerce records.
What to check next
Compare candidate panels against every proposed physical criterion, continue applying the existing orders unless Commerce issues final revocation, and file any comments and factual information through ACCESS on all four proceeding records by 5 p.m. eastern August 12.
