WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following is a statement from Abigail Ross Hopper, president and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA):
“This is Washington’s worst kept secret. SEIA has been leading the effort to develop smart trade solutions that support American solar manufacturers in the near-term.
“American solar manufacturers have been rightly sounding the alarm bell about deteriorating market conditions for months now and the need to take corrective actions.
“While we won’t take a formal position on any filings until we work through the details of the petition and its impact on the industry, we need to support American solar manufacturers before it’s too late.
“We firmly believe that we need to build out domestic solar manufacturing capacity and reduce our reliance on global imports.”
