If you have been following the Chinese solar industry, you would be aware that solar manufacturers from China, such as Suntec etc have gone bankrupt over the past decade or more. China’s approach of allowing underperforming solar companies to go bankrupt is one of the reasons why their solar industry is so formidable.

The EU imposed tariffs on Chinese solar panels over a decade ago hoping the solar industry would return to them. It did not work.
