The Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has proposed increasing tariffs on wafers and polysilicon under Section 301.

Last week, the USTR unveiled modifications concerning tariff actions under Section 301, which includes the increase of solar cells (whether or not assembled into modules) tariffs from 25% to 50% as well as semiconductors and batteries, as covered by our sister-site Energy-storage.news. These increased tariffs were announced last May.
