The Commerce Department intends to exempt solar cells from Hanwha Q Cells made from inputs from two additional Chinese suppliers from antidumping and countervailing duties on solar cells from China (A-570-979/C-570-980), it said in the preliminary results of a changed circumstances review. The agency plans to add the two Hanwha suppliers to Appendix V of its final circumvention determination (see 2308180044), which lists the Hanwha suppliers eligible for certification that the imported solar cells aren’t circumventing AD/CVD.
