China-europe photovoltaic energy storage policy

Making solar a source of EU energy security

However, China has not always dominated the solar PV supply chain, and Europe had been the frontrunner in the ''solar revolution''. In 2007, 30 % of PV manufacturing was stilllocated in Europe. In an attempt to protect the industry, the European Commission, in 2013, proposed a phased anti-dumping tariff on solar PV panels imported from China.
