In a preliminary ruling, the U.S. Commerce Department plans to slap 31%-250% anti-dumping tariffs on imported Chinese solar cells, according to a report from the Washington based newspaper The Hill. The move is in response a government finding that China is flooding the U.S. market with under-priced solar panels.
Solar energy is one of the most economical sources of energy due to the grants available to subsidies the purchase of the hardware. There are different types of solar panels that can be found in the solar panel market. However, there are only two main types that are common and more cost-effective. These include the Photo Voltaic Collectors and the Solar Thermal Collectors.
Why is solar power so important in today's world and how does it effect us are some vital issues to understand? The traditional energy resources are diminishing day by day, so alternative energy sources must be sought out. The sun is the best source of all energy; it is clean, clear, eco-friendly and does not emit any dangerous by-products.
