Other “Domestic” Suppliers: A few manufacturers with U.S.-based production or assembly – such as Hanwha Qcells (Georgia factories), First Solar (Ohio), Mission Solar (Texas), and Silfab (Washington) – do not incur these import tariffs on their U.S.-made panels. They have an effective price advantage now.
In summary, as of April 2025 we see solar panel prices up by 20–40% (depending on origin), inverters up ~10–30%, and battery costs up significantly (~30% or more) compared to pre-tariff levels. These increases correlate directly with the reciprocal tariff rates imposed (34% on China, 36–49% on SE Asia, etc.), underlining the tariffs' impact.
They do not have to be paid on cells and modules that are already subject to separate "anti-circumvention" duties on equipment that Commerce found in an earlier Auxin investigation is being manufactured in southeast Asia using Chinese parts to avoid high tariffs on solar equipment manufactured wholly in China.
For instance, REC Group (Singapore) panels carry only a 10% tariff; JA Solar's new factory in Phoenix (if operational) would be exempt entirely; and Waaree Energies (India) indicated the 27% U.S. tariff on Indian goods is manageable and hasn't changed their near-term pricing strategy.
