Kapaciteten udviklede sig dog positivt mellem 2009 og UP.
However, capacity developed positively between 2009 and the IP.
Samtidig er det indlysende, at EU-erhvervsgrenen også skal være i stand til at producere og sælge store mængder af de mere grundlæggende varetyper (som for øjeblikket konkurrerer med dumpingimporten fra Kina) for at kunne sprede de faste omkostninger og opnå stordriftsfordele.
At the same time, it is evident that the Union industry also needs to be able to produce and sell the high volumes of the more basic product types (which are currently in competition with the dumped imports from the PRC) in order to dilute fixed costs and achieve economies of scale.
Det kan således konkluderes, at EU-erhvervsgrenen ikke blot led væsentlig skade i UP, men også aktivt søgte at gøre sig mindre sårbar over for dumpingimporten af den pågældende vare ved at udvikle innovative varer, som endnu ikke importeres fra det pågældende land.
Consequently, it can be concluded that the Union industry not only suffered material injury during the IP, but also actively sought ways to reduce of its exposure to the dumped imports of the product concerned whereby developing innovative products which are not yet imported from the country concerned.
I henhold til grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6 og 7, blev det undersøgt, om dumpingimporten fra det pågældende land havde forvoldt EU-erhvervsgrenen skade i et omfang, der kan betegnes som væsentligt.
In accordance with Article 3(6) and (7) of the basic Regulation, it was examined whether the dumped imports from the country concerned have caused injury to the Union industry to a degree that may be considered as material.
Undersøgelsen viste, at dumpingimporten steg drastisk i den betragtede periode og øgede mængden væsentligt med 596 % og markedsandelen med 366 %.
The investigation showed that dumped imports increased dramatically over the period considered, increasing their volumes significantly by 596 % and their market share by 366 %.
Undersøgelsen fastslog endvidere, jf. betragtning 89, at dumpingimporten underbød EU-erhvervsgrenens priser i UP.
The investigation also established that as mentioned in recital (89) above, the dumped imports undercut the prices of the Union industry during the IP.
Undersøgelsen viste, at dumpingimportpriserne faldt med 27,2 % i den betragtede periode og førte til store underbudsmargener.
The investigation showed that the prices of the dumped imports decreased by 27,2 % during the period considered and led to higher undercutting margins.
Over for dette ekstreme prispres iværksatte EU-erhvervsgrenen en række omfattende bestræbelser for at nedbringe produktionsomkostningerne.
Against this extreme price pressure, the Union industry underwent considerable effort to decrease its production costs.
Ud fra ovenstående konkluderes det foreløbigt, at tilstedeværelsen af dumpingimporten og den massive stigning i dumpingimportens markedsandel til priser, der konstant underbyder EU-erhvervsgrenens priser, har haft en afgørende indflydelse på den væsentlige skade, som EU-erhvervsgrenen har lidt.
Based on the above, it is provisionally concluded that the presence of dumped imports and the massive increase of their market share at prices constantly undercutting those of the Union industry have had a determining role in the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Importmængden fra andre tredjelande udviklede sig som følger i den betragtede periode:
The volume of imports from other third countries developed as follows over the period considered:
Import fra tredjelande (i 1000m2)
Imports from third countries (1000 m2)

Gennemsnitspris EUR/m2
Average price EUR/m2
Mængden af import fra andre tredjelande steg i den betragtede periode med 46 % i tråd med stigningen i EU-forbruget.
The volume of imports from other third countries during the period considered increased by 46 %, in line with increase in Union consumption.
Den tilsvarende markedsandel faldt i UP i forhold til 2011 (3,5 %), men var overordnet set stabil i den betragtede periode.
Their market share slightly decreased during the IP in comparison with 2011 (3,5 %) but overall it remained stable over the period considered.
Tyrkiet er den næststørste eksportør efterfulgt af Indien.
Turkey is the second largest exporter after the PRC, followed by India.
De foreliggende oplysninger vedrørende importen fra alle tredjelande viser, at den gennemsnitlige importpris var højere end den gennemsnitlige kinesiske importpris.
The information available as regards imports from all third countries shows that the average import price was higher than the average Chinese import price.
Dette gælder også for enhedsprisen for hver af de særlige typer af den pågældende vare.
This is also valid for unit price per particular types of the product concerned.
På den anden side var tredjelandenes gennemsnitlige importpris på niveau med eller højere end EU-erhvervsgrenens gennemsnitlige pris.
On the other hand, the third countries’ average import price was similar or higher than the Union industry’s average price.
På denne baggrund og især i lyset af importmængden og markedsandelen fra tredjelande og dennes prisniveau, kan det foreløbig konkluderes, at importen fra tredjelande ikke kunne bryde årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og EU-erhvervsgrenens skade.
On these grounds, in particular in view of the import volumes and market shares from third countries as well as their price levels, it can be provisionally concluded that third country imports could not break the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Eksportmængderne hos EU-producenterne i stikprøven udviklede sig således i den betragtede periode:
The volume of exports of the sampled Union producers developed as follows over the period considered:
De stikprøveudvalgte EU-producenters eksportresultater
Export performance of the sampled Union producers
Eksportsalgsværdi (1000 EUR)
Export sales value (1000 EUR)
Eksportsalgsmængde (i 1000 m2)
Export sales volume (1000 m2)
De stikprøveudvalgte EU-producenters eksportsalg steg mellem 2009 og 2011, men faldt pludseligt i UP med 74 % i værdi og med 71,9 % i mængde.
Export sales of the sampled Union producers increased between 2009 and 2011, but dropped suddenly in the IP by 74 % in value and by 71,9 % in volume.
Det fremgår af de stikprøveudvalgte kinesiske eksportørers besvarelser, at dette højst sandsynligt skyldes de meget lave kinesiske priser ved eksport til EU-erhvervsgrenens vigtigste eksportmarkeder (USA og Canada).
Based on the replies of the sampled Chinese exporters, this is most probably due to very low prices of Chinese exports to the Union industry's major destinations of exports (i.e. US, Canada).
De stikprøveudvalgte EU-producenters eksportsalg udgjorde 20 % af deres samlede salg udtrykt i mængde i 2009 (etableringsfasen), i 2010 11 % og som det højeste kun 14 % i 2011.
Export sales of the sampled Union producers constituted 20 % of their total sales in volume in 2009 (in the start-up phase), during 2010 11 % and during the peak year of 2011 only 14 %.
2012 viste et yderligere fald på 5 %, da disse EU-producenter kom i konkurrence med den kinesiske lavpriseksport til de største tredjelandes eksportmarkeder.
2012 showed a further decrease to 5 % when they entered in competition with Chinese low price exports to major third country destinations.
Da EU-markedet er EU-erhvervsgrenens vigtigste marked, og da solcelleglas er forholdsvis tungt og skrøbeligt, hvilket medfører supplerende omkostninger ved transport over lange distancer (på grund af brud og korrosion), kan det således ikke på dette stadie konkluderes, at de stikprøveudvalgte EU-producenters forværrede eksportresultater bryder årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og den væsentlige skade, som EU-erhvervsgrenen påførtes.
Consequently, as the Union market is the main market for the Union industry, also because solar glass is relatively heavy and fragile, which translates into additional costs when transported over a distance (due to breakage and corrosion), it cannot be concluded at this stage that the deteriorated export performance of the sampled Union producers breaks the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
EU-forbruget steg som nævnt ovenfor mellem 2009 og UP med 49 %.
As mentioned above, the Union consumption increased between 2009 and the IP by 49 %.
EU-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel faldt konstant i den betragtede periode, og faldet var på 25 % i UP i forhold til 2009 (– 14,1 % i forhold til 2011).
Its market share fell constantly during the period considered reaching a drop of 25 % during the IP in comparison with 2009 (– 14,1 % in comparison with 2011).
Den kinesiske markedsandel steg derimod markant, selv da forbruget faldt mellem 2011 og UP, hvilket medførte en stigning på 64,8 % mellem 2011 og UP og en overordnet stigning på 366 % i hele perioden.
On the contrary, the Chinese market share was increasing sharply, even when consumption fell between 2011 and IP, resulting in an increase by 64,8 % between 2011 and the IP and an overall increase by 366 % during the whole period.
Stigningen i den kinesiske import var på hele 596 % i den betragtede periode.
The increase of Chinese imports was a massive 596 % during the period considered.
Da EU-forbruget steg i den betragtede periode, er dets udvikling af et sådant omfang, at det styrker årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og den væsentlige skade, der forvoldtes EU-erhvervsgrenen, og forbruget er således ikke i sig selv en årsag til EU-erhvervsgrenens skade.
As the Union consumption increased in the period considered, its development is such that reinforces the causal link between the increasing dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Union industry and it is not itself a cause of injury to the Union industry.
Desuden var den kinesiske dumpingimport, selv i UP, hvor forbruget faldt, i stand til at øge markedsandelen på bekostning af EU-erhvervsgrenen.
In addition, even in the IP, when consumption decreased, Chinese dumped imports were able to further increase their market share at the detriment of the Union industry.
Derfor kan det foreløbigt konkluderes, at faldet i forbruget i UP ikke kunne bryde årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og den skade, som EU-erhvervsgrenen blev påført.
Therefore, it can provisionally be concluded that the decrease in consumption in the IP could not break the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Tendenser for solcellemoduler
Trends in solar modules
Ifølge de oplysninger, som Kommissionen har til rådighed, går 80-85 % af salget af solcelleglas til producenter af solcellemoduler (fotovoltaiske moduler af krystallinsk silicium og fotovoltaiske tyndfilmsmoduler) og ca. 15-20 % af salget går til producenter af flade solfangere, der producerer varmt vand.
According to the information at the Commission's disposal, around 80-85 % of solar glass sales are made to solar modules producers (Crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules and thin-film photovoltaic modules), and around 15-20 % of the sales are made to producers of solar thermal flat plate collectors producing hot water.
De tendenser, der er konstateret for solcellemoduler, har således en vigtig indvirkning på forbruget af solcelleglas.
Consequently, the trends observed in solar modules have an important impact on the consumption of solar glass.
Forbruget af solcellemoduler steg konstant i hele samme periode, dvs. 2009-2012, og selv om der var en nedgang i 2012, var forbruget 221 % højere end i 2009 og 44 % højere end i 2010 [5].
Consumption of solar modules increased constantly throughout the same period, i.e. 2009-2012, and even though there was a decrease in 2012, the level of consumption remained 221 % higher than in 2009 and 44 % higher than in 2010 [5].
Det konstateredes desuden, at selv om efterspørgslen efter moduler i Unionen oprindeligt blev affødt af de faste afregningspriser, kunne det ikke konkluderes, at nedskæringerne i de faste afregningspriser (ultimo 2011, primo 2012) havde brudt årsagssammenhængen mellem dumpingimporten og skaden [6].
In addition, it was established that while demand for modules in the Union was initially generated by the feed-in-tariffs (FITs), it could not be concluded that the FITs cutbacks (at the end of 2011, beginning of 2012) had broken the causal link between dumped imports and injury [6].
Dette skyldtes, at efterspørgslen efter solcellemoduler fortsat var relativt høj i samme periode, dvs. 2009-2012.
This was due to the fact that demand for solar modules remained relatively high over the same period 2009-2012.
Forbruget af solcellemoduler og dermed også efterspørgslen efter solcelleglas var således fortsat højt i den betragtede periode.
Consequently, the level of consumption of solar modules, and as a result the demand of solar glass, remained high during the period considered.
Den mindre nedgang i 2012 kan ikke alene betragtes som en faktor af et sådant omfang, at den kunne bryde den etablerede årsagssammenhæng mellem dumpingimporten fra Kina og den væsentlige skade, der forvoldtes EU-erhvervsgrenen.
Its slight decrease in 2012 cannot be regarded on its own as a factor such as to break the causal link established between the dumped imports from the PRC and the material injury by the Union industry.
Andre mulige årsager til skaden såsom importen fra andre tredjelande, forbruget og markedsforholdene for nogle af brugerne som f.eks. producenter af solcellemoduler blev analyseret både individuelt og kumulativt, men ingen af dem var af et sådant omfang, at de kunne bryde den konstaterede årsagssammenhæng mellem dumpingimporten fra Kina og den væsentlige skade, der forvoldtes EU-erhvervsgrenen.
Other possible causes of injury, such as imports from other third countries, consumption and the market situation of some of their users such as solar modules were analysed and none of them, analysed both individually and cumulatively, were found to be such as to break the causal link established between the dumped imports from the PRC and the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Ud fra ovenstående analyse, hvor der blev behørigt skelnet mellem alle de kendte faktorer, som påvirkede EU-erhvervsgrenens situation, og dumpingimportens skadevoldende virkninger, konkluderes det derfor foreløbigt, at dumpingimporten fra det pågældende land har forvoldt EU-erhvervsgrenen væsentlig skade som omhandlet i grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 6.
Based on the above analysis, which has properly distinguished and separated the effects of all known factors on the situation of the Union industry from the injurious effects of the dumped imports, it is therefore provisionally concluded that the dumped imports from the country concerned have caused material injury to the Union industry within the meaning of Article 3(6) of the basic Regulation.
Kommissionen undersøgte i overensstemmelse med grundforordningens artikel 21, om der til trods for den foreløbige konklusionen om skadevoldende dumping er tvingende årsager til at konkludere, at det ikke er i Unionens interesse at indføre foranstaltninger i dette tilfælde.
In accordance with Article 21 of the basic Regulation, the Commission examined whether, despite the provisional conclusion on injurious dumping, compelling reasons existed for concluding that it was not in the Union interest to adopt measures in this particular case.
Unionens interesser blev analyseret på grundlag af en vurdering af alle de forskellige involverede parters interesser i forbindelse med den pågældende vare, herunder EU-erhvervsgrenens, importørernes, råvareleverandørernes og brugernes interesser.
The analysis of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, including those of the Union industry, importers, raw materials suppliers and users of the product concerned.
EU-erhvervsgrenen beskæftigede i UP ca. 860 personer direkte i produktion og salg af samme vare.
The Union industry directly employed about 860 people in the IP in the production and sale of the like product.
Visse EU-producenter blev derfor nødt til at lukke deres produktionsanlæg, mens andre gik konkurs.
Some Union producers were already forced to close down their production facilities while some others have faced insolvency.
Det forventes, at indførelsen af en antidumpingtold vil genoprette redelige handelsvilkår på EU-markedet og sætte EU-erhvervsgrenen i stand til at tilpasse priserne på samme vare, så de afspejler produktionsomkostningerne, hvorved den kan forbedre rentabiliteten.
It is expected that the imposition of anti-dumping duties will restore fair trade conditions on the Union market, allowing the Union industry to align the prices of the like product to reflect the costs of production thus improving its profitability.
Det kan også forventes, at indførelsen af foranstaltninger vil betyde, at EU-erhvervsgrenen kan genvinde i det mindste en del af den markedsandel, der blev tabt i den betragtede periode, med positive virkninger for den overordnede økonomiske situation.
It can also be expected that the imposition of measures would enable the Union industry to regain at least part of the market share lost during the period considered, with a positive impact on its overall financial situation.
Derudover burde EU-erhvervsgrenen være i stand til at få bedre adgang til kapital og foretage yderligere investeringer i FoU og innovation på markedet for solcelleglas.
Moreover, the Union industry should be able to have better access to capital and to further invest in R&D and innovation in the solar glass market.
Endelig er det sandsynligt, at de EU-producenter, der blev nødt til at indstille produktion som følge af presset fra den kinesiske dumpingimport, vil genoptage deres erhvervsaktiviteter.
Finally, it is likely that the Union producers who were forced to cease production as a result of the pressure of the Chinese dumped imports might restart their business activity.
Med dette scenarie vil ikke blot de eksisterende arbejdspladser blive sikret, men der ville også være en rimelig udsigt for yderligere produktionsudvidelser og øget beskæftigelse.
Overall, under this scenario, not only the existing jobs would be secured, but there would also be a reasonable prospect for further production expansion and increase in employment.
Hvis der ikke indføres foranstaltninger, forventes der yderligere tab af markedsandele med en yderligere forværring af EU-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet til følge.
Should measures not be imposed, further losses in the market share are expected with a further deterioration of the Union industry’s profitability.
Udover de mange EU-producenter, der allerede er blevet tvunget ud af markedet, kunne andre producenter således være i fare for konkurs, hvilket på kort til mellemlang sigt sandsynligvis ville betyde, at EU-erhvervsgrenen går i opløsning, hvilket vil få alvorlige konsekvenser for de eksisterende arbejdspladser.
As a consequence, in addition to the large number of the Union producers that were already forced out of the market, other producers could be facing insolvency which would in the short to medium term lead to a likely disappearance of the Union industry with the consequent significant impact of the existing jobs.
Det konkluderes derfor foreløbigt, at det vil være i EU-erhvervsgrenens interesse, at der indføres en antidumpingtold.
It is therefore provisionally concluded that the imposition of the anti-dumping duties would be in the interest of the Union industry.
Ikke forretningsmæssigt forbundne importørers/forhandleres interesser
Interest of unrelated importers and traders
For de to samarbejdsvillige importører bestod deres vigtigste forretningsaktivitet af handel med den pågældende vare.
For the two cooperating importers the major business activity consisted of trading the product concerned.
De havde begge diversificeret deres indkøb af den pågældende vare, dvs., at de ikke kun indkøbte fra Kina men også fra Unionen og tredjelande.
Both of them had diversified sources of the product concerned, i.e. they were not only sourcing from the PRC, but also from the Union and third countries.
Selv om det kan forventes, at indførelsen af foranstaltninger kan få en negativ virkning for den økonomiske situation hos importører, der udelukkende eller overvejende importerer fra Kina, kan importørerne i lyset af muligheden for at købe fra tredjelande forventes at være fleksible og foretage et skift i deres forsyningskilder, hvis det skønnes nødvendigt.
Secondly, although it can be expected that the imposition of measures may have a negative effect on the financial situation of the importers importing only or mainly from the PRC, in view of the possibility to source from third countries, the importers can be expected to be flexible and shift their sources of supply if deemed necessary.
Det konkluderes derfor foreløbigt, at indførelsen af foranstaltninger på det foreslåede niveau kan få en vis negativ indvirkning på situationen hos de ikke forretningsmæssigt forbundne importører af den pågældende vare, men at denne indvirkning afbødes af det forhold, at importører og forhandlere kan anvende andre forsyningskilder både fra tredjelande og EU-erhvervsgrenen, og sidstnævnte har kapaciteten til at øge sin produktion, og at det vil under alle omstændigheder ikke opveje den positive indvirkning på de øvrige parter.
It is therefore provisionally concluded that the imposition of measures at the proposed level may have a certain negative impact on the situation of unrelated importers of the product concerned, but that its impact is mitigated by the fact that importers and traders can use other sources of supply, both from third countries and the Union industry, the latter having the capacity to increase its production, and in any case it would not weight out the positive impact on other parties.
Råvareleverandørernes interesser
Interest of raw materials suppliers
Ingen råvareleverandører samarbejdede i forbindelse med undersøgelsen.
No raw materials supplier cooperated with the investigation.
Da der ikke forelå data fra disse leverandører, var der ingen dokumentation for, at indførelsen af foranstaltninger vil være i strid med disse parters interesser.
In the absence of data from such suppliers, there was no evidence that the imposition of measures would be against the interest of these parties.
Alle de brugere, der besvarede spørgeskemaet, er producenter af solcellemoduler og/eller solfangere.
All users that responded are producers of solar modules and/or thermal collectors.
Tre brugere går kraftigt ind for indførelsen af antidumpingtold og påstår, at EU-erhvervsgrenen producerer solcelleglas af en bedre kvalitet, som de kinesiske virksomheder ikke altid kan levere.
Three users are firmly in favour of imposing anti-dumping duties, arguing that the Union industry produces better quality solar glass which cannot always be supplied by Chinese companies.
Derimod var tre andre brugere imod indførelsen af antidumpingforanstaltninger.
By contrast, three other users were against the imposition of anti-dumping measures.
Disse brugere forventer, at indførelsen af antidumpingtold vil få en negativ indvirkning på deres forretninger.
Those users expect that the imposition of anti-dumping duties would have a negative impact on their business.
De forventer, at de ikke vil kunne overvælte prisstigningerne på de endelige forbrugere på grund af den vanskelige situation i erhvervsgrenen for solcellemoduler.
They expect not to be able to pass on the increase in prices to final consumers given the dire situation of the solar modules industry.
I henhold til de oplysninger, som brugerne indsendte, udgør solcelleglas kun ca. 6-8 % af de samlede omkostninger til solcellemoduler.
According to the information submitted by users, solar glass constitutes only around 6-8 % of the total costs of the solar modules.
Solcelleglas udgør således kun en begrænset del af omkostningerne og af den endelige værdi af solcellemoduler.
Thus, solar glass constitutes only a limited part of the costs and of the final value of the photovoltaic modules.
