Takeaways

Potential import ban on Chinese inverters. On 6/30, Reuters reported that the

Trump administration is drafting a ban on imports of foreign inverters over concerns

around potential for disrupted power supplies. According to the article, the rule is

being drafted by the Federal Communications Commission and would apply to new

inverter imports. The article also states that the policy could be published as early as

this year. This policy follows a May decision by the European Commission to ban

Chinese manufactured inverters for publicly funded projects due to similar security

concerns. Notably, this potential policy measure could be revised or not executed at

all.
