For India, recently
said it would limit imports of solar policy, U.S. Commerce Secretary Gary Locke
(GaryLocke) expressed considerable concern that such a restriction is not only
unfavorable international
solar panel manufacturers
to enter the fast-growing Indian
market, for the development of renewable energy in India is not a good thing.
With economic development, as well as the
demand for clean energy synchronization, India plans to add 20,000 in 2020
megawatts (MWp) of installed solar capacity. Indian government intends to grant
power plants in the next few years $ 20 billion of funds, however, since April
of any solar panels imported from overseas manufacturers will not get
subsidies.
International solar panel manufacturers
only possible to obtain a small portion of subsidy pie way is a joint venture
with Indian vendors in India, establish local panel manufacturing plant. Few American
manufacturers have also have a desire.
Locke said, can be understood India hopes
to support the local solar industry's efforts, however, to achieve this
purpose, there are many possible ways to exclude the use of imported panel is
not the best way. Including the United States in the way proposed tax
incentives and subsidies, etc. These methods can encourage overseas enterprises
to set up production lines in India.
U.S. President Barack Obama (BarackObama)
2010 India visit in November, once the prohibition of imports of solar panels
overseas concerns, then part of India's foreign policy is still allowed to
manufacture panels. However, since the beginning of April, a total ban on the
import of overseas panel, so this issue has considerable urgency.
Locke is the second Obama visited India
after a U.S. Cabinet officials, called for the strengthening of trade between
the United States and India relations and hopes to open more export of
sensitive products, such as civil nuclear energy, civil aviation, security
products. From 2002 to 2009, the U.S. exports to India grew four times,
amounted to $ 16.4 billion.
Locke visited India said that despite India
since 1991 remain open after the liberalization of the economy, reducing
tariffs on many products, and to allow more foreign investment, but Locke that
India needs in the economy, there are still many ongoing liberalization of
items. Also participating Indian Commerce Minister AnandSharma pointed out that
in terms of policy, there is a fast break Prudential easy.
As previously that the US-India bilateral
cooperation in the field of solar energy, so the friction even more difficult
recently. India's Commerce Department officials confirmed Locke does raise the
question of
mppt solar charge controller
, but declined to comment on whether India will therefore
revise policy.
India's leading manufacturer of solar
panels as well as MoserBaerIndia TataBPSolarIndia, which is TataPower and
BPSolarInternational joint venture, the two solar panel manufacturers occupy the
bulk of India's domestic solar plan. If the April schedule does not allow
foreign imports panel for local Indian industry's development will be very good
news.
December RahulKhullar Indian Commerce
Secretary said that India slight chance of policy change. Khullar accused the
U.S. of double standards, the mainland market for wind power in the face of
similar restrictions, the United States did not protest. But Locke said that
the U.S. wind power successfully requires removing barriers to the mainland,
allowing the industry's overseas operations.
In addition to solar panels, the
international company in the Indian market faced a series of policy barriers.
Technology companies, for example, BlackBerry (BlackBerry) maker RIM, and
Google are facing increasingly stringent Indian regulatory authorities.
Retailer Wal-Mart (WalMart) has always wanted to enter India, but because of
the delay in opening up India's official foreign direct investment and no
result.
