Description
After a more than year-long investigation, the Biden administration made
a final determination that Chinese companies are funneling solar
products through four Southeast Asian countries to avoid tariffs. The
ruling will set up new duties on the solar industry in 2024 and likely
reshuffle the supply chains for renewable energy equipment coming into
the United States. POLITICO’s Kelsey Tamborrino breaks down the ruling
and how it could threaten the US solar industry and President Joe
Biden’s clean energy goals. Plus, the European Union’s reserves of
natural gas hit a historic high recently as the bloc continues its dash
away from Russian energy dependence.
