Wafer-forward is point of contention in the Auxin petition

The industry continues to argue over the circumvention case. A key contention point is Commerce’s new “wafer-forward” ruling. Apparently, companies circumventing the tariffs last year were circumventing based on the new wafer-forward rules – they were under compliance based on previous cell-forward requirements, but the rules changed. So far, no other crystalline silicon solar panel manufacturer has come out in support of Auxin.
