Commentary: Solar industry should be unfazed by new tariffs

Related Topics: Tariff

The solar industry is like America itself: Strong, enduring, resilient and willing to fight to improve not just the human condition, but also the most sacred place in our nation’s psyche – the sole item preceding the white picket fence in the last and greatest components of the American Dream – our homes – which are now powered by solar in larger numbers than ever.

That trend will still continue year over year. I’m unfazed by the new tariff being imposed on imported solar cells and I feel many American solar companies relying on foreign imports have reason to feel the same.
