The U.S. Department of Commerce has issued preliminary affirmative determinations in anti-dumping (AD) investigations regarding crystalline silicon PV cells and modules from India, Indonesia, and Laos. The preliminary dumping margins are set at 123.04% for India, 35.17% for Indonesia, and 22.46% for Laos. When combined with countervailing duties announced in February 2026, total preliminary duty exposure has reached approximately 234% for India, 121%–178% for Indonesia, and 103% for Laos. Importers are now required to post cash deposits immediately. Final determinations are expected between July and September 2026, with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) scheduled for a final injury determination on October 19, 2026, potentially leading to final duty orders on October 26, 2026.

[SMM PV] Exports Grew 267%! PV Export Orders Full Production Schedule

Customs data show that China's cumulative PV product exports from January to April 2026 were up about 43% YoY, as foreign demand remained strong despite the cancellation of export tax rebates for PV products from April 1. Especially in the Southeast Asian market, in April this year, monthly module exports were up 267% YoY. Industry insiders believe that global new PV installations will remain above 500 GW in 2026, and that, while seizing the global new energy transition, China's PV enterprises are accelerating technological upgrades and structural optimization to achieve a shift from scale expansion to quality and efficiency improvement.

[SMM PV] "PV+ESS Integration" Takes Center Stage

At the just-concluded SNEC exhibition last week, the hall layout saw a historic shift: the number of energy storage themed halls surpassed that of solar cell and module halls for the first time, and "PV+ESS integration" has moved from concept to the spotlight. LONGi made its debut in a fully integrated PV+ESS exhibition form, unveiling the "full-stack LONGi" strategy; Jinko Solar designated 2026 as the first year of energy storage volume ramp-up, having already secured approximately 5 GWh of energy storage orders; Trinasolar, JA Solar Technology, and others all showcased full‑stack energy storage solutions. After the mandatory energy storage allocation policy was phased out, energy storage shifted from a "compliance burden" into an asset that must generate profits on its own. Enterprises are no longer satisfied with "selling panels" but are turning to "selling systems" — PV companies are collectively transforming from pure manufacturers into integrated energy service providers.
