Chinese workers check arrays of solar panels on the rooftop of an enterprises building in Changxing county, east Chinas Zhejiang province, 7 February 2012. The United States Commerce Department said Tuesday (Mar. 20) it would impose tariffs on solar panels imported from China after concluding that the Chinese government provided illegal export subsidies to manufacturers there. The tariffs were smaller than some American industry executives had hoped for - 2.9 percent to 4.73 percent - which could blunt their effect on the market. But additional tariffs could be imposed in May, when the Commerce Department is scheduled to decide whether China is dumping solar panels into the United States at prices below their actual cost. A finding of dumping would result in additional tariffs that could be far larger than the anti-subsidy tariffs ©Corbis From COMMENT 7:38pm
