EU PV manufacturers rally to new group for China trade action

The new body, called EU ProSun, says it has asked the European Commission (EC) to investigate “unfair trade practices by Chinese solar manufacturers”, which could lead to tariffs on China-made PV products.

It emerged early this week that a group of companies led by Germany’s SolarWorld had filed the complaint, though the parties concerned have remained silent since then.

Milan Nitzschke, a senior member of SolarWorld’s marketing team, is named as president of EU ProSun in its first media bulletin.
