Chief architect premier x8 turn off grid7/11/2023 Reports that it is now considering an exemption to bifacial modules for another four years suggest something of a U-turn by the Biden administration. The Biden Administration had appealed against the reinstatement of an exemption from Section 201 tariffs for bifacial modules after it was imposed in November last year by the US Court of International Trade (CIT). Reuters cited “administration officials” as saying that “no decision had been made yet, but that trade protections were likely”. Reuters yesterday (27 January) cited two sources familiar with the matter as stating that the White House is preparing to extend S201 tariffs by four years, in line with recommendations made late last year by the US International Trade Commission, but exempt bifacial panels from those tariffs when they are extended.Īccording to the report, the White House is also contemplating doubling the tariff-free quota on solar cell imports from 2.5GW to 5GW per year. The Biden administration is said to be considering making bifacial panels exempt from extended Section 201 tariffs on solar imports, according to unconfirmed reports. Reports suggest the new Section 201 rules would keep in place the exemption on bifacial modules in a major boon for the utility-scale solar industry in the US.
