In August 2025, the U.S. World Replace Price (ITC) decided to initiating out an antidumping/countervailing duty (AD/CVD) investigation on photo voltaic cells and panels imported from India, Indonesia and Laos. An uptick in photo voltaic imports from Indonesia and Laos has been noticeable — more so than from India — but now the Dept. of Commerce is determining doubtless tariff portions for photo voltaic imports from all three countries if the ITC finds unfair replace practices.
Indonesia | Laos | India | ||||
| Cells | Panels | Cells | Panels | Cells | Panels | |
| Average month-to-month imports (2024) | 12 MW | 150 MW | 64 MW | 101 MW | 22 MW | 367 MW |
| June 2025 imports | 831 MW | 1,420 MW | 1,380 MW | 875 MW | 15 MW | 520 MW |
| July 2025 imports | 696 MW | 1,250 MW | 729 MW | 554 MW | 8 MW | 415 MW |
American panel manufacturers first requested the investigation in July, alleging that companies had relocated their operations to India, Indonesia and Laos to preserve a long way from tariffs positioned on imports from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam. The ITC is investigating extra. Commerce became scheduled to expose its preliminary CVD portions in October, however the authorities shutdown prevented that. Commerce’s preliminary antidumping portions had been scheduled to be launched in behind December. The petitioners maintain diagnosed dumping margins of 89.65% for Indonesia, as a lot as 249.09% for Laos and 213.96% for India. There became no confirmation on when the investigation time table will resume.
