Now solar industry faces a US-India trade dispute.

REW: “The U.S. Trade Representative Ron Kirk said Wednesday he’s taking the first step toward lodging a World Trade Organization complaint against India for a policy that blocks some U.S. companies from a growing market.” “The national policy, launched in 2010, turned India into a potentially vast market for solar equipment makers around the world. The government set out to add 20 GW of grid-tied and 2 GW of off-grid solar energy generation by 2022. The plan generated a flood of excitement for solar manufacturers, but that euphoria was soon tempered by the rule that require project developers to use Indian-made silicon solar cells and panels.”
