These anti-solar tariffs are awful! What a horrible disappointment--- they won't revive a dead horse (domestic PV manufacturing already folded), BP already closed its solar division, Evergreen/Astropower/countless others already folded, they won't protect Solar World (which isn't even a US company)---- but they will hurt consumers: -drive solar businesses out of the marketplace and out of business -less competition and fewer options in the market = lower quality and higher prices -lack of product -lack of replacement product -aftermarket warranty support for solar will evaporate
