A plan by China to restrict exports of key solar manufacturing technology could delay attempts to build up a domestic solar supply chain in the U.S., industry experts say.

    Was that in the works? Was the US trying to build up a manufacturing capability for Solar Panels. If the US wants something China has they could try asking for it. They could also fund their own R&D.

    I bet China would be open to joint development with the US, but the US has to decide whether it wants a trade war or cooperation.

      Yeah, China has always held the position that they want cooperation. The antagonism comes entirely from US. Now US reaps what they sowed.

    lol…as if the US (i live in a territory) actually wants solar! What would the power companies do, if we adopted solar nationally?

    That being said…my landlord made my building solar! I have $12 Luma bills now and NO POWER OUTAGES!!! I live in PR, where the electric grid fails pretty regularly. I am lucky.
