多元化供应渠道是本公司在美国发展的关键
10月16日中国上海——全球领先的太阳能(“PV”)光伏组件和硅片制造商昱辉阳光集团(NYSE: SOL)今日宣布,由于供应渠道多样化,其产品将不会受制于最近美国商务部针对从中国进口的一系列太阳能产品的反倾销和反补贴关税。尽管美国国际贸易委员会预期在今年11月份会作出裁决,但昱辉阳光希望其产品及美国客户不会受到影响。
昱辉阳光集团CEO李仙寿先生说:“美国商务部的公告不足为奇,事实上,昱辉阳光集团数月前已开始准备应对,通过供应渠道多样化来确保我们的价格在今天的市场上仍最具竞争力”,“新的关税仅仅针对中国制造的电池以及由中国制造的电池而生产的组件。而我们售往美国的产品非中国制造,因此不受这些关税的制约。”
“这些关税(源于美国和德国制造商的投诉申请)不顾美国顾客的利益,一次性全部强加。不幸的是,关税将危害到成千上万的总部设在美国的安装公司和开发商,他们被迫提高价格以抵消即将到来的处罚”,李仙寿先生补充说,“昱辉阳光注重研发,会继续恪守对研发的承诺,为全球客户降低太阳能产品的成本。”
ReneSola Modules Not Subject to U.S. Duties Associated with Anti-Dumping Case
Diversified Supply Chain Key to Company’s U.S. Growth
SHANGHAI, China, October 16-ReneSola Ltd (“ReneSola” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SOL), a leading global manufacturer of solar photovoltaic (“PV”) modules and wafers, today announced that, as a result of the Company’s diversified supply chain, its products will not be subject to antidumping and countervailing duties recently imposed by the U.S. Department of Commerce on a range of solar imports originating in China. Although the U.S. International Trade Commission is expected to make its own determination in November of this year, ReneSola does not expect its products or U.S. customers to be affected.
“The announcement by the Department of Commerce was not a surprise, said Mr. Xianshou Li, ReneSola’s chief executive officer. “ In fact, we had been preparing for this eventuality for months by diversifying our supply chain to ensure that our prices remain among the most competitive in today’s marketplace”. “The new duties apply only to China-made cells and to modules assembled with such cells. The cells we use in the products we sell in the United States are manufactured outside of China and therefore not subject to these duties.”
“These duties, which stem from complaints filed by German and U.S. manufacturers, are being imposed at a time when U.S. regulators should instead focus on the interests of U.S. consumers. Unfortunately, the tariffs will mostly harm thousands of U.S.-based installers and developers who will be forced to raise their prices in order to cover retroactive and anticipated penalties,” added Mr. Li. “ReneSola maintains its deep commitment to research and development, and to bringing down the costs of solar power for consumers worldwide.”
