Yingli Green Energy Comments on U.S. Department of Commerces Solar PV Tariff Rulings Following Administrative Reviews of Imported Panels Using Chinese Cells
Yingli Subject to Lowest Tariff Rate among its Peers
BAODING, China, July 9, 2015 Yingli Green Energy Holding Company Limited (Yingli or Yingli Solar) (NYSE:YGE), one of the worlds leading solar panel manufacturers, today commented on the final results of the first administrative reviews of the antidumping duty (AD) and countervailing duty (CVD) orders issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce regarding the import of solar PV panels assembled in China using components from China. According to todays results, Yinglis manufacturing affiliates will receive the lowest combined tariff rate of its peers, amounting to 21.73%. This is lower than Yinglis original combined AD/CVD rate of 29.18% from 2012.
While we are disappointed in the U.S. Department of Commerces decision to continue placing tariffs on an industry that is the second fastest-growing energy industry in the U.S, we are now very securely positioned to succeed in the U.S. market. So long as these tariffs are in place, we will continue our vigorous defense and fight for solar powers cost-competiveness, commented Mr. Robert Petrina, Managing Director of Yingli Green Energy Americas.
Its unfortunate that while todays decision is encouraging for Yingli, the entire American solar industry is impacted. Hundreds of thousands of American homeowners, businesses and utilities benefit from highly competitive solar solutions, which are now at risk, commented Mr. Liansheng Miao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli Green Energy.
