Several interested parties claimed that the injury suffered by the Union industry was caused by the competition from thin film PV products and other PV technologies, as these technologies were interchangeable and with same end use.
Več zainteresiranih strani je trdilo, da je vzrok za škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, konkurenca tankoslojnih fotonapetostnih izdelkov in drugih fotonapetostnih tehnologij, saj so te tehnologije medsebojno zamenljive in imajo enako končno uporabo.
The investigation showed that thin film PV products are produced from different raw materials and do not use crystalline silicon wafers.
Preiskava je pokazala, da se tankoslojni fotonapetostni izdelki izdelujejo iz drugačnih surovin in se zanje ne uporabljajo rezine iz kristalnega silicija.
In general, they have much lower conversion efficiencies and a lower wattage output than crystalline silicon modules.
Na splošno imajo veliko manjši izkoristek pretvorbe in manjšo izhodno moč kot moduli iz kristalnega silicija.
As a result, they cannot be used on restricted areas such as roof-tops, i.e. they are not fully interchangeable with the product concerned.
Posledično jih ni mogoče uporabljati na omejenih površinah, kot so strehe, torej niso povsem medsebojno zamenljivi z zadevnim izdelkom.
Therefore, although there may be some competition between the thin film products and the product concerned, this competition is considered to be marginal.
Zato se kljub temu, da morda obstaja določena raven konkurence med tankoslojnimi izdelki in zadevnim izdelkom, ta konkurenca šteje za zanemarljivo.
Therefore the investigation found no link between the injury suffered by the Union industry and the competition of thin film PV and other PV technologies.
Zato preiskava ni pokazala nobene povezave med škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, in konkurenco tankoslojnih fotonapetostnih in drugih fotonapetostnih tehnologij.
Financial crisis and its effects
3.8 Finančna kriza in njeni učinki
It was claimed that the financial crisis and the economic recession had a negative effect on the access to finance for the Union industry and thus caused the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Zatrjeno je bilo, da sta finančna kriza in gospodarska recesija negativno vplivali na dostop industrije Unije do finančnih sredstev in tako povzročili škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
The ability of the Union industry to raise capital decreased significantly during the period considered.
Zmožnost industrije Unije za zbiranje kapitala se je v obravnavanem obdobju močno zmanjšala.
As the solar industry is capital intensive, the ability to raise capital is crucial.
Ker je sončna industrija kapitalsko intenzivna, je zmožnost zbiranja kapitala ključnega pomena.
The economic recession had a certain impact on the situation of the Union industry.
Gospodarska recesija je imela določen vpliv na položaj industrije Unije.
The investigation showed, however, that despite the growth of the Union market between 2009 and 2011, the situation of the Union industry deteriorated as a result of the dumped imports from the PRC heavily undercutting the Union industry’s sales prices.
Vendar je preiskava pokazala, da se je kljub rasti trga Unije med letoma 2009 in 2011 položaj industrije Unije poslabšal zaradi dampinškega uvoza iz LRK, ki je močno nelojalno nižal prodajne cene industrije Unije.
It was therefore concluded that the potential effects of the financial crisis was aggravated by the increase of dumped imports from the PRC and that the limited access to finance was largely a consequence of the negative market climate, the situation and prospects of the Union industry a consequence of the dumped imports.
Zato je bilo ugotovljeno, da je povečanje dampinškega uvoza iz Kitajske okrepilo morebitne negativne učinke finančne krize in da je bil omejen dostop do finančnih sredstev v veliki meri posledica negativnih razmer na trgu, položaj in možnosti industrije Unije pa posledica dampinškega uvoza.
Therefore, while the financial crises had a certain impact on the situation of the Union industry, it could not break the causal link between the dumped imports and the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Torej, čeprav je finančna kriza v določeni meri vplivala na položaj industrije Unije, ni mogla prekiniti vzročne zveze med dampinškim uvozom in škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Export performance of the Union industry
3.9 Izvoz industrije Unije
Some interested parties claimed that the Union industry’s export sales dropped significantly during the period considered and especially between 2009 and 2011 for modules and between 2009 and first quarter of 2012 for cells and that this has caused the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Nekatere zainteresirane strani so trdile, da se je izvoz industrije Unije v obravnavanem obdobju bistveno zmanjšal, za module zlasti med letoma 2009 in 2011, za celice pa med letom 2009 in prvo četrtino leta 2012, in da je zaradi tega nastala znatna škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
However, as shown in the table below, the export volumes for modules remain significant despite a slight decrease in the IP and average price levels during the IP were above the average costs of modules throughout the period considered.
Vendar, kot je prikazano v spodnji preglednici, je obseg izvoza modulov ostal na visoki ravni kljub rahlemu zmanjšanju v OP, raven povprečnih cen pa je bila v OP višja od povprečnih stroškov za module v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju.
Therefore, this could not have caused the injury suffered by the Union industry.
Zato to ni mogel biti vzrok za škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
As for cells, the export volumes represented only around 12 % of the total production volume of cells.
V zvezi s celicami je obseg izvoza predstavljal le približno 12 % celotnega obsega proizvodnje celic.
Therefore, despite the low prices during the IP, this could only have had limited impact on the situation of the Union industry.
Zato je lahko to kljub nizkim cenam v OP imelo le omejen vpliv na položaj industrije Unije.
Finally, as regards wafers, exports represented around 24 % of the total production volume and likewise, despite the low export prices during the IP, this could only have had limited impact on the situation of the Union industry.
Kot zadnje, v zvezi z rezinami je izvoz predstavljal približno 24 % celotnega obsega proizvodnje in podobno je lahko to kljub nizkim izvoznim cenam v OP imelo le omejen vpliv na položaj industrije Unije.
The arguments in this respect had therefore to be rejected.
Argumente v zvezi s tem je bilo treba zato zavrniti.

On these grounds, it was found that the impact of the Union’s industry’s export performance was not such as to contribute to the material injury suffered by the Union industry.
Na tej podlagi je bilo ugotovljeno, da vpliv izvoza industrije Unije ni bil tako velik, da bi prispeval k znatni škodi, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
Therefore, the parties’ arguments in this respect had to be rejected.
Zato je bilo treba argumente zainteresiranih strani v zvezi s tem zavrniti.
The discovery of shale gas deposits in the Union
3.10 Odkritje nahajališč plina iz skrilavca v Evropski uniji
One interested party claimed that the injury suffered by the Union industry was caused by the discovery of shale gas deposits in the Union and the prospect of increasing production of cheap shale gas in the Union has reduced public and private investments in renewable energy projects.
Ena zainteresirana stran je trdila, da je vzrok škode, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, odkritje nahajališč plina iz skrilavca v Uniji in da je možnost povečanja proizvodnje poceni plina iz skrilavca v Uniji zmanjšala javne in zasebne naložbe v projekte na področju obnovljive energije.
The investigation found that the consumption for the product under investigation increased substantially throughout the period considered, as already mentioned in recital 108 above.
Preiskava je pokazala, da se je potrošnja izdelka v preiskavi v celotnem obravnavanem obdobju znatno povečevala, kot je že omenjeno v uvodni izjavi 108.
Moreover, the investigation did not bring into light any factual evidence that the injury suffered by the Union industry was due to the discovery of shale gas deposits in the Union.
Poleg tega preiskava ni razkrila nobenih dejanskih dokazov, da je škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, nastala zaradi odkritja nahajališč plina iz skrilavca v Evropski uniji.
The European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS)
3.11 Sistem Evropske unije za trgovanje z emisijami (ETS)
The same party claimed that the injury suffered by the Union industry was caused by the low investments in solar energy production due to the low market prices for the European Union’s Emissions Trading Scheme CO2 emission credits.
Ista stran je trdila, da je škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, posledica nizkih naložb v proizvodnjo sončne energije zaradi nizkih tržnih cen za emisijske kredite v zvezi s CO2 v okviru sistema Evropske unije za trgovanje z emisijami.
To the contrary, the investigation showed that the consumption of the product under investigation was increasing substantially during the period considered.
Nasprotno, preiskava je pokazala, da se je potrošnja izdelka v preiskavi v obravnavanem obdobju znatno povečevala.
Management decisions
3.12 Upravne odločitve
Some interested parties claimed that the material injury suffered by at least one of the Union producers was caused by a wrong management decisions.
Nekatere zainteresirane strani so trdile, da je znatna škoda, ki jo je utrpel vsaj en proizvajalec Unije, nastala zaradi napačnih upravnih odločitev.
These allegations were based on the annuals accounts and some information contained in a letter sent by a shareholder of the company to the other shareholders.
Te trditve so temeljile na letnih računovodskih izkazih in nekaterih informacijah iz pisma, ki ga je delničar družbe poslal drugim delničarjem.
None of the information in the file showed that any of the management decisions of the company concerned were unusual or imprudent or had an impact on the entire Union industry.
Informacije iz dokumentacije niso pokazale, da je bila katera koli upravna odločitev zadevne družbe nenavadna ali nepremišljena ali da je vplivala na celotno industrijo Unije.
Therefore, the arguments in this respect were rejected.
Zato so bili argumenti v zvezi s tem zavrnjeni.
Other government policies
3.13 Druge vladne politike
One interested party claimed that the material injury suffered by the Union industry was caused by other government policies such as renewable energy policies, policies aimed at encouraging innovation, policies of cutting red tape, trade facilitation policies and grid access regulations, as these policies benefit the exporting producers.
Ena zainteresirana stran je trdila, da je znatna škoda, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, nastala zaradi drugih vladnih politik, kot so politike na področju obnovljive energije, politike, namenjene spodbujanju inovacij, politike za skrajšanje upravnih postopkov, politike za spodbujanje trgovine in ureditve glede dostopa do omrežij, saj te politike koristijo proizvajalcem izvoznikom.
However, even if it is true that certain of the claimed policies might facilitate imports from other third countries and overall growth of solar industry, these policies would also benefit the Union industry.
Čeprav je res, da bi nekatere od navedenih politik lahko spodbudile uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav in splošno rast sončne industrije, pa bi te politike koristile tudi industriji Unije.
Moreover, these policies should not be meant that such imports in the Union should be made at injurious dumped prices.
Poleg tega te politike ne bi smele pomeniti, da bi uvoz v Unijo potekal po škodljivih dampinških cenah.
Conclusion on causation
3.14 Sklep o vzročni zvezi
The investigation has established a causal link between the material injury suffered by the Union industry and the dumped imports from the PRC.
Preiskava je pokazala vzročno zvezo med znatno škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije, in dampinškim uvozom iz LRK.
Other possible causes of injury, such as imports from other third countries, consumption, feed-in-tariffs, other financial support granted to the Union industry, overcapacity, impact of raw material prices, self-inflicted injury, competition from thin-film, financial crisis and its effects, export performance of the Union industry, the discovery of shale gas deposits in the Union, managements decisions, the European Union’s Emissions Trading Schemes, other government policies were analysed and none of them was 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.
Drugi morebitni vzroki za škodo, kot so uvoz iz drugih tretjih držav, potrošnja, tarife za dovajanje toka, druga finančna podpora, odobrena industriji Unije, presežna zmogljivost, vpliv cen surovin, samopovzročena škoda, konkurenca tankoslojnih izdelkov, finančna kriza in njeni učinki, izvoz industrije Unije, odkritje nahajališč plina iz skrilavca v Evropski uniji, upravne odločitve, sistemi Evropske unije trgovanja z emisijami in druge vladne politike, so bili analizirani in ugotovljeno je bilo, da nobeden ni bil tak, da bi prekinil vzročno zvezo med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in znatno škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije.
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 was therefore provisionally concluded that there was a causal link between the dumped imports from the PRC and the material injury suffered by the Union industry during the IP.
Na podlagi zgornje analize, ki je pravilno razlikovala in ločila učinke vseh znanih dejavnikov na položaj industrije Unije od škodljivih učinkov dampinškega uvoza, je bilo zato začasno sklenjeno, da obstaja vzročna zveza med dampinškim uvozom iz LRK in znatno škodo, ki jo je utrpela industrija Unije v OP.
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 is not in the Union interest to adopt provisional measures in this particular case.
V skladu s členom 21 osnovne uredbe je Komisija proučila, ali so kljub začasnemu sklepu o škodljivem dampingu obstajali tehtni razlogi, da sprejetje začasnih ukrepov v tem primeru ni v interesu Unije.
The analysis of the Union interest was based on an appreciation of all the various interests involved, including those of the Union industry, companies in the upstream and downstream markets of the PV sector, importers, users and consumers of the product concerned.
Analiza interesa Unije je temeljila na oceni vseh različnih vpletenih interesov, vključno z interesi industrije Unije, družb na nabavnem in podrejenem trgu fotonapetostnega sektorja, uvoznikov, uporabnikov in potrošnikov zadevnega izdelka.
Around 150 operators made themselves known after the initiation of the investigation.
Po začetku preiskave se je javilo približno 150 gospodarskih subjektov.
Specific questionnaires were sent to unrelated importers, upstream operators (including a raw material producer and suppliers of production equipment for the product under investigation), downstream operators (including project developers and installers) and BEUC — a consumer organisation.
Posebni vprašalniki so bili poslani nepovezanim uvoznikom, gospodarskim subjektom, ki so višje v prodajni verigi, (vključno s proizvajalcem surovin in dobavitelji opreme za proizvodnjo izdelka v preiskavi), gospodarskim subjektom, ki so nižje v prodajni verigi, (vključno z razvijalci projektov in monterji) in organizaciji potrošnikov BEUC.
Three associations representing various operators (Union industry, upstream and downstream operators) in the PV sector submitted information.
Informacije so predložila tri združenja, ki so zastopala različne gospodarske subjekte (industrijo Unije, gospodarske subjekte, ki so višje ali nižje v prodajni verigi) v fotonapetostnem sektorju.
The Union industry directly employed about 25000 people in the IP in the production and sale of the like product.
Industrija Unije je v OP neposredno zaposlovala približno 25000 ljudi v proizvodnji in prodaji podobnega izdelka.
The investigation established that the Union industry has suffered material injury caused by the dumped imports from the country concerned during the investigation period.
V preiskavi je bilo ugotovljeno, da je industrija Unije v obdobju preiskave zaradi dampinškega uvoza iz zadevne države utrpela znatno škodo.
It is recalled that a number of injury indicators showed a negative trend during the period considered.
Opozoriti je treba, da so številni kazalniki škode v obravnavanem obdobju kazali negativne trende.
In particular, injury indicators related to the financial performance of the cooperating Union producers, such as profitability, cash flow and return on investments were seriously affected.
Zelo prizadeti so bili zlasti kazalniki škode, povezani s finančno uspešnostjo sodelujočih proizvajalcev Unije, kot so dobičkonosnost, denarni tok in donosnost naložb.
In fact, the Union producers of modules, cells and wafers were loss making in 2011 and in the IP.
Dejansko so proizvajalci modulov, celic in rezin v Uniji v letu 2011 in v OP poslovali z izgubo.
Consequently, some Union producers were already forced to close down their production facilities while some others have faced insolvency.
Zato so morali nekateri proizvajalci Unije že zapreti svoje proizvodne obrate, medtem ko so se nekateri drugi soočili z nesolventnostjo.
In the absence of measures, a further deterioration in the Union industry’s economic situation appears very likely.
Zelo verjetno je, da se bo brez ukrepov gospodarski položaj industrije Unije še poslabšal.
It is expected that the imposition of provisional 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.
Pričakuje se, da se bodo z uvedbo začasnih protidampinških dajatev znova vzpostavili pravični pogoji trgovanja na trgu Unije, kar bo industriji Unije omogočilo uskladitev cen podobnega izdelka s stroški proizvodnje in tako izboljšalo njeno dobičkonosnost.
It can also be expected that the imposition of provisional 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.
Pričakuje se lahko tudi, da se bo z uvedbo začasnih ukrepov industriji Unije omogočila povrnitev vsaj dela tržnega deleža, ki ga je izgubila v obravnavanem obdobju, kar bi pozitivno vplivalo na njen celoten finančni položaj.
Moreover the Union industry should be able to have better access to capital and to further invest in R & D and innovation in the PV market.
Poleg tega bi morala industrija Unije imeti boljši dostop do kapitala in možnost, da še naprej vlaga v raziskave in razvoj ter inovacije na fotonapetostnem trgu.
Finally, the investigation also pointed to a possible restarting of the business activity of the Union producers who were forced to stop the production as a result of the pressure of the Chinese imports.
Preiskava je pokazala tudi, da je mogoče ponovno začeti poslovne dejavnosti proizvajalcev Unije, ki so morali ustaviti proizvodnjo zaradi pritiska kitajskega uvoza.
Overall, under this scenario, not only the existing 25000 jobs of the Union industry (in the IP) would be secured but there would also be a reasonable prospect for further production expansion and increase in employment.
Na splošno bi bilo v tem scenariju zavarovanih obstoječih 25000 delovnih mest industrije Unije (v OP), poleg tega pa bi obstajala tudi utemeljena možnost za nadaljnjo širitev proizvodnje in povečanje števila delovnih mest.
Should measures not be imposed, further losses in the market share are expected with a further deterioration of the Union industry’s profitability.
Če se ukrepi ne uvedejo, je pričakovati nadaljnje izgube tržnega deleža, dobičkonosnost industrije Unije pa bi se nadalje poslabšala.
This would be unsustainable in the short to medium-term.
To kratko- in srednjeročno ne bi bilo vzdržno.
As a consequence, in addition to the large number of the Union producers that were already forced out of the market as described in recital 157 above, 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.
Poleg velikega števila proizvajalcev Unije, ki so že bili prisiljeni zapustiti trg, kot je opisano v uvodni izjavi 157, bi zato lahko postali nesolventni tudi drugi proizvajalci, kar bi lahko kratko- do srednjeročno privedlo do verjetnega prenehanja obstoja industrije Unije in posledičnega znatnega vpliva na obstoječa delovna mesta.
It was therefore provisionally concluded that the imposition of the anti-dumping duties would be in the interest of the Union industry.
Zato se začasno sklene, da bi bila uvedba protidampinških dajatev v interesu industrije Unije.
As mentioned in recital 12 above, for only one out of three sampled importers the major business activity consisted in trading the product concerned.
Kot je omenjeno v uvodni izjavi 12, je bilo trgovanje z zadevnim izdelkom glavna poslovna dejavnost samo enega od treh vzorčenih uvoznikov.
An argument was put forward that the imposition of measures on the product concerned will negatively affect the importers’ business activity.
Predložen je bil argument, da bo uvedba ukrepov za zadevni izdelek negativno vplivala na poslovne dejavnosti uvoznikov.
Firstly, the imposition of duties should not result in the elimination of all imports from the PRC.
Prvič, uvedba dajatev ne bi smela povzročiti ukinitve celotnega uvoza iz LRK.
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 from the PRC, in view of the likely increase of imports from other third countries, the importers sourcing from different countries should be in the position to shift their sources of supply
Drugič, čeprav se lahko pričakuje, da bi uvedba ukrepov lahko imela negativen vpliv na finančni položaj uvoznikov, ki uvažajo samo iz LRK, bi se lahko uvozniki, ki uvažajo iz različnih držav, zaradi verjetnega povečanja uvoza iz drugih tretjih držav preusmerili na druge vire dobave.
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.
Zato se začasno sklene, da bi uvedba predlagane ravni ukrepov lahko imela določen negativen vpliv na položaj nepovezanih uvoznikov zadevnega izdelka.
Interest of the upstream operators
Interes gospodarskih subjektov, ki so višje v prodajni verigi
The upstream operators are mainly active in the production of the raw materials and in the production and engineering of the manufacturing equipment for the product under investigation.
Gospodarski subjekti, ki so višje v prodajni verigi, se večinoma ukvarjajo s proizvodnjo surovin ter proizvodnjo in inženiringom opreme za proizvajanje izdelka v preiskavi.
Eight replies were received to the questionnaires from the upstream operators.
Prejetih je bilo osem izpolnjenih vprašalnikov gospodarskih subjektov, ki so višje v prodajni verigi.
Two verification visits were carried out covering a raw material producer and a producer of manufacturing equipment.
Opravljena sta bila dva preveritvena obiska, in sicer pri proizvajalcu surovin in proizvajalcu proizvodne opreme.
