Tariffs are going to hurt domestic manufacturers in the short term.
US manufacturers rely on a global supply chain to source everything from the solar cells that go into solar panels to the steel that goes into their factories.
The domestic solar manufacturing industry was booming thanks to the IRA. But now factories will almost certainly be delayed and domestic products will get more expensive.
It will take years to rebuild these supply chains. And in the meantime, we'll all be paying the price.
the US imports NO modules from China? And if so, how come Europe gets almost all its modules from China and very little or nothing from these other countries? I seem to have missed something very important!
