Spain Wind Towers: Amended Final Determination, AD Order
The Commerce Department is amending the June 25, 2021, final determination of an antidumping duty investigation on utility scale wind towers from Spain (A-469-823) based on the final decision, issued Jan. 28, 2025, in a court case challenging those final results. The AD order, published Aug. 16, 2021, also is being amended to reflect the new final results. Commerce calculated a revised AD rate for the collapsed entity made up of the following exporters: Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE); Windar Renovables S.A. (Windar); and five of Windar’s affiliates (i.e., Tadarsa Eolica SL; Windar Offshore SL; Windar Wind Services SL; Aemsa Santana SA; and Apoyos Metalicos SA) -- collectively known as SGRE/Windar. That change also affects the rate for all other exporters in the subject review.

The review covered entries during the period July 1, 2019, through June 30, 2020.
The new rates are applicable Feb. 7, as follows:
| Exporter | New AD Rate |
|---|---|
| Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy (SGRE); Windar Renovables S.A. (Windar); Tadarsa Eolica SL; Windar Offshore SL; Windar Wind Services SL; Aemsa Santana SA; and Apoyos Metalicos SA | 28.55% |
| All others | 28.55% |
Because SGRE/Windar doesn't have a superseding cash deposit rate, i.e., there have been no new final results published in a subsequent administrative review, and because of the change to the rate assigned to all other producers and exporters of subject merchandise, Commerce will issue revised cash deposit instructions to CBP.
(The review period is 07/01/19 - 06/30/20. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2106170027 for a summary of the original final determinations in this AD review. International Trade Today published this summary based on the public version posted in the Federal Register on June 17, 2021, for publication the following day. That version was withdrawn soon after due to a new federal observance of Junteenth on June 18 that year. It was then published June 25.)
