US solar panel imports from China grow, alleviating gridlock

“There’s clearer guidance out, and we’re seeing more shipments coming through,” said Biden adviser John Podesta. — Bloomberg

HOUSTON: US imports of solar panels are finally picking up after months of gridlock stemming from implementation of a new law banning goods made with forced labour, according to two Chinese solar companies.

A White House official confirmed the thaw in shipments at an energy conference on Monday, attributing it to clearer rules around complying with the Uyghur Forced Labour Protection Act (UFLPA).
