European Commission to continue anti-subsidy probe
The European Commission yesterday said it will continue its anti-subsidy investigation of solar panels from China, without taking provisional measures such like imposing punitive duties in June.
“The investigation will continue without provisional measures and the Commission will continue working actively on the case in order to arrive (at) definitive findings that are due at the end of this year,” it said in a statement.
The Commission, the European Union’s executive arm, noted that the decision not to impose any provisional anti-subsidy measures would not prejudge the final outcome of the investigation.
The Commission will decide whether definitive anti-subsidy levies should be imposed no later than December 5, after issuing the final findings in both of its anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigations.
The announcement came nearly two months after the Commission decided on June 4 to impose provisional anti-dumping duties on imports of solar panels, cells and wafers from China.
Tension eased after an amicable agreement was reached last month under which producers accounting for about 70 percent of Chinese solar panel exports to the EU have agreed to set a minimum price for them.
