Six companies, qualifying as unrelated importers trading the product concerned (i.e. purchasing and reselling it), came forward and were willing to cooperate further in the investigation.
Šest družb, uvrščenih med nepovezane uvoznike, ki trgujejo z zadevnim izdelkom (tj. z nakupi in nadaljnjo prodajo), se je javilo in bilo pripravljeno sodelovati v nadaljnji preiskavi.
Out of these six, five replied within the deadline.
Pet od njih je odgovorilo v predpisanem roku.
Out of the five replies received, only three were sufficiently complete and allowed for a meaningful assessment.
Od petih prejetih odgovorov so bili samo trije ustrezni in primerni za smiselno oceno.
On this basis, the sample of the unrelated importers was enlarged and consisted of four importers for modules, representing around 2 % — 5 % of the total imports from the country concerned.
Na podlagi tega je bil vzorec nepovezanih uvoznikov razširjen in je zajemal štiri uvoznike za module, ki predstavljajo približno 2–5 % celotnega uvoza iz zadevne države.
Given the structure of the unrelated importers, which were mostly small and medium-sized companies, it was not possible to have a sample representing a larger share, given the limited resources at the disposal of the Institutions.
Glede na strukturo nepovezanih uvoznikov, ki so bili večinoma mala in srednje velika podjetja, vzorec, ki bi predstavljal večji delež, ni bil mogoč, saj so bili viri, ki so jih imele institucije na voljo, omejeni.
In the absence of any further comments with regard to the sampling of unrelated importers, recitals (11) and (12) to the provisional Regulation, as amended above are confirmed.
Ker ni bilo nobenih drugih pripomb glede vzorčenja nepovezanih uvoznikov, se uvodni izjavi (11) in (12) začasne uredbe, kakor sta bili zgoraj spremenjeni, potrdita.
Following the provisional disclosure, a number of non-sampled companies submitted comments arguing that their situation is different from the sampled companies.
Po začasnem razkritju je več nevzorčenih družb predložilo pripombe, v katerih so trdile, da je njihov položaj drugačen od položaja vzorčenih družb.
They argued that, as a consequence, they should benefit from an individual duty rate pursuant to Article 17(3) of the basic Regulation.
Trdile so, da bi se morale zato za njih uporabljati individualne stopnje dajatev v skladu s členom 17(3) osnovne uredbe.
However, due to the high number of co-operating companies (often groups of companies), it was not possible to individually investigate all companies.
Vendar zaradi velikega števila sodelujočih družb (pogosto skupin družb) ni bilo mogoče posamično preiskati vseh družb.
Therefore, pursuant to Article 9(6), these companies are subject to the weighted average duty of the sampled companies.
Zato za te družbe velja tehtano povprečje dajatve vzorčenih družb v skladu s členom 9(6).
In the absence of any further comments with regard to the sampling of exporting producers recitals (13) and (14) to the provisional Regulation are confirmed.
Ker ni bilo nobenih drugih pripomb glede vzorčenja proizvajalcev izvoznikov, se uvodni izjavi (13) in (14) začasne uredbe potrdita.
As set out in recital (19) to the provisional Regulation, the investigation of dumping and injury covered the period from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012 (‘the investigation period’ or ‘IP’).
Kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (19) začasne uredbe, je preiskava dampinga in škode zajela obdobje od 1. julija 2011 do 30. junija 2012 („obdobje preiskave“ ali „OP“).
As set out in recitals (20) to (49) to the provisional Regulation, the product concerned as provisionally defined is crystalline silicon PV modules or panels and cells and wafers of the type used in crystalline silicon PV modules or panels, originating in or consigned from the PRC.
Kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah (20) do (49) začasne uredbe, zadevni izdelek, kot je začasno opredeljen, pomeni fotonapetostne module ali panele iz kristalnega silicija ter celice in rezine vrst, ki se uporabljajo v fotonapetostnih modulih ali panelih iz kristalnega silicija, s poreklom iz LRK ali ki so od tam poslane.
The cells and wafers have a thickness not exceeding 400 micrometers.
Celice in rezine so debeline največ 400 mikrometrov.
solar chargers that consist of less than six cells, are portable and supply electricity to devices or charge batteries;
solarni napajalniki, ki so sestavljeni iz manj kot šestih celic, so prenosni in z električno energijo napajajo naprave ali baterije,
thin film PV products;
tankoslojni fotonapetostni izdelki,
crystalline silicon PV products that are permanently integrated into electrical goods, where the function of the electrical goods is other than power generation, and where these electrical goods consume the electricity generated by the integrated crystalline silicon PV cell(s).
fotonapetostni izdelki iz kristalnega silicija, ki so trajno vgrajeni v električne naprave, kadar funkcija električnih naprav ni proizvodnja električne energije in kadar se te električne naprave napajajo z električno energijo, ki jo proizvedejo integrirane fotonapetostne celice iz kristalnega silicija.
Claims regarding the product scope
Trditve v zvezi z obsegom izdelka
Exclusion of wafers
Izključitev rezin
Following the provisional disclosure, interested parties claimed that wafers should be removed from the product scope since wafers do not share the same basic physical, chemical and technical characteristics as cells and modules.
Zainteresirane strani so po začasnem razkritju trdile, da bi bilo treba rezine odstraniti iz obsega izdelka, saj nimajo enakih osnovnih fizikalnih, kemičnih in tehničnih lastnosti kot celice in moduli.
In addition to the arguments brought forward at the provisional stage, two additional arguments were brought forward in this respect after the provisional disclosure.
Poleg argumentov, predloženih v začasni fazi, sta bila po začasnem razkritju predložena dva dodatna argumenta v zvezi s tem.
Firstly, interested parties claimed that wafers can be used for other purposes than for the production of cells, notably the production of integrated circuits and other micro devices.
Prvič, zainteresirane strani so trdile, da se rezine lahko uporabijo za druge namene kot za proizvodnjo celic, zlasti za proizvodnjo integriranih vezij in drugih mikro naprav.
In this respect, it is noted that not all wafers are included in the product scope of this investigation, which is limited to ‘wafers of the type used in crystalline silicon PV modules or panels’, and that those wafers have ‘a thickness not exceeding 400 micrometres’.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da niso vse rezine vključene v obseg izdelka te preiskave, ki je omejena na „vrste rezin, ki se uporabljajo v fotonapetostnih modulih ali panelih iz kristalnega silicija“, in da so navedene rezine „debeline do vključno 400 mikrometrov“.
While wafers certainly do exist in other applications, the investigation never covered wafers which are used in the production of other products such as integrated circuits.
Rezine se vsekakor uporabljajo tudi drugje, vendar preiskava ni nikoli zajela rezin, ki se uporabljajo za proizvodnjo drugih izdelkov, kot so integrirana vezja.
In addition, no producers, importers or users involved in the market for these other types of wafers came forward alleging that their wafers would be subject to registration or provisional anti-dumping duties.
Poleg tega se proizvajalci, uvozniki ali uporabniki, ki so vključeni na trgu teh drugih vrst rezin, niso javili ali trdili, da se bo za njihove rezine uporabljala registracija ali začasne protidampinške dajatve.
It is therefore confirmed that these other types of wafers are not subject to the product scope of this investigation.
Zato se potrdi, da te druge vrste rezin niso zajete v obsegu izdelka te preiskave.
At the same time, this shows that wafers do not necessarily have the same end use as cells and modules.
To hkrati kaže, da rezine nimajo nujno enake končne uporabe kot celice in moduli.
Secondly, interested parties claimed that unprocessed wafers possess none of the essential electric properties which distinguish solar cells and modules from other products.
Drugič, zainteresirane strani so trdile, da nepredelane rezine nimajo bistvenih električnih lastnosti, ki solarne celice in module ločijo od drugih izdelkov.
In particular, wafers lack the ability to generate electricity from sunlight, which is the key function of crystalline photovoltaic cells and modules.
Zlasti rezine ne morejo ustvarjati električne energije iz sončne svetlobe, kar je ključna funkcija solarnih celic in fotonapetostnih modulov iz kristalnega silicija.
This claim can be accepted.
Ta trditev se lahko sprejme.
Indeed after further verification and contrary to what is stated in recital (36) to the provisional Regulation that ‘modules, cells and wafers have the same end use, converting sunlight into electricity’, only once the wafer is transformed into a cell, does it obtain the functionality to generate electricity from sunlight.
Po nadaljnjem preverjanju in v nasprotju z navedbo v uvodni izjavi (36) začasne uredbe, da imajo „moduli, celice in rezine enako končno uporabo, in sicer pretvarjanje sončne svetlobe v električno energijo“, rezina dejansko dobi funkcijo za ustvarjanje električne energije iz sončne svetlobe šele po tem, ko se predela v celico.
Due to the different basic physical and technical characteristics, defined during the investigation inter alia as the functionality to generate electricity from sunlight, it is concluded on balance that wafers should be excluded from the definition of the product concerned, and thus from the scope of this investigation.
Zaradi različnih osnovnih fizikalnih in tehničnih lastnosti, določenih med preiskavo, med drugim funkcionalnosti ustvarjanja elektrike iz sončne svetlobe, je bilo sklenjeno, da bi bilo treba rezine na splošno izključiti iz opredelitve zadevnega izdelka in torej iz obsega te preiskave.
Separate investigations for cells and modules
Ločeni preiskavi za celice in module
Interested parties reiterated that cells and modules are not a single product, and should therefore be assessed separately, mainly repeating arguments already addressed in recitals (27) to (39) to the provisional Regulation.
Zainteresirane strani so ponovno poudarile, da celice in moduli niso en sam izdelek in jih je zato treba oceniti ločeno, pri tem pa so predvsem ponovile argumente, ki so bili že obravnavani v uvodnih izjavah (27) do (39) začasne uredbe.
Unlike wafers, however, cells and modules do share the same basic property, i.e. the ability to generate electricity from sunlight.
V nasprotju z rezinami imajo celice in moduli enako osnovno lastnost, tj. zmožnost ustvarjanja elektrike iz sončne svetlobe.
Following final disclosure, one exporter argued that cells by themselves cannot produce electricity.
Po dokončnem razkritju je proizvajalec trdil, da celice same ne morejo proizvajati elektrike.
Allegedly, they need to be integrated into modules to do so.
Za to bi jih bilo treba vgraditi v module.
However, each cell by itself has a capacity to generate electricity from sunlight of typically around 4W.
Vendar ima vsaka posamezna celica zmogljivost ustvarjati elektriko iz sončne svetlobe običajno v moči približno 4 W.
While this power may be insufficient for most applications which require an assembly of multiple cells into modules, this does not mean that a cell by itself does not already have the capacity to generate electricity.
Čeprav je ta moč nezadostna za večino namenov uporabe v napravah, ki potrebujejo združevanje več celic v module, to ne pomeni, da ima celica sama po sebi zmogljivost ustvarjanja elektrike.
Following final disclosure, one exporter argued that the impossibility to establish a Normal Value for modules on the basis of the Normal Value for cells, as described in recital (100) below, demonstrates that modules and cells should not be considered a single product.
Po dokončnem razkritju je en izvoznik trdil, da nezmožnost določanja normalne vrednosti za module na podlagi normalne vrednosti za celice, kot je opisana v uvodni izjavi (100), kaže, da se celice in moduli ne bi smeli šteti za en sam izdelek.
In this respect, it is noted that in the majority of anti-dumping investigations, including the present investigation, a comparison between Normal Values and export prices is made on the basis of product types.
V zvezi s tem se ugotavlja, da pri večini protidampinških preiskav, vključno s to preiskavo, primerjava med normalnimi vrednostmi in izvoznimi cenami temelji na vrsti izdelka.
This is done since often a very broad range of product types share the same basic physical, technical and/or chemical characteristics, which often leads to a situation where product types with substantially different costs and prices fall under the definition of the ‘product concerned’.
To je posledica tega, da imajo zelo različne vrste izdelkov pogosto enake osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in/ali kemične lastnosti, zato vrste izdelkov z zelo različnimi stroški in cenami pogosto spadajo v opredelitev „zadevnega izdelka“.
The mere fact that it is not possible to establish a Normal Value for a certain product type on the basis of the Normal Value of another product type does not in itself mean that these product types cannot be considered a single product.
Čeprav ni mogoče določiti normalne vrednosti za določeno vrsto izdelka na podlagi normalne vrednosti druge vrste izdelka, to samo po sebi ne pomeni, da teh vrst izdelkov ni mogoče obravnavati kot en sam izdelek.
As described in recital (32) above, both cells and modules do share the same basic physical and technical characteristics, inter alia the functionality to generate electricity from sunlight.
Kot je opisano v uvodni izjavi (32), imajo celice in moduli enake osnovne fizikalne in tehnične lastnosti, med drugim funkcionalnost ustvarjanja elektrike iz sončne svetlobe.
It is further argued that if cells and modules were one single product with minor differences, adjusting the prices of cells to establish a price of modules should not be difficult.
Dodatno se je trdilo, da prilagajanje cen celic za določanje cen modulov ne bi smelo biti težavno, če bi bile celice in moduli en sam izdelek z manjšimi razlikami.
In this respect it is noted that there is no requirement that there are only minor differences between the different types of the product concerned.
V zvezi s tem se ugotavlja, da ni zahteve po le manjših razlikah med različnimi vrstami zadevnega izdelka.
To the contrary, it is sufficient that the different types of the product concerned share the same basic physical, technical and/or chemical characteristics.
Prav nasprotno, zadostuje, da imajo različne vrste zadevnega izdelka enake osnovne fizikalne, tehnične in/ali kemične lastnosti.
In the present case, this is the case for modules and cells, inter alia the functionality to generate electricity from sunlight.
V tem primeru to velja za module in celice, med drugim funkcionalnost ustvarjanja elektrike iz sončne svetlobe.
The same party further argued that cells are not just another type of module, but an entirely different product.
Ista zainteresirana stran je še naprej trdila, da celice niso le še ena vrsta modula, ampak popolnoma drug izdelek.
In effect, a cell is the key component of a module.
Celica je dejansko ključni sestavni del modula.
As a key component, a cell is clearly not ‘an entirely different product’, as modules and cells share the same basic characteristics of generating electricity from sunlight, as indicated in recital (32) above.
Kot ključni sestavni del, celica nedvomno ni „popolnoma drug izdelek“, saj imajo moduli in celice enako osnovno značilnost ustvarjanja elektrike iz sončne svetlobe, kot je navedeno v uvodni izjavi (32).
The same party argued in addition that when the samples for Union producers and Chinese exporters were selected, the difference between cells and modules was taken into account.
Ista stran je prav tako trdila, da se je po izbiri vzorcev za proizvajalce Unije in kitajske izvoznike upoštevala razlika med celicami in moduli.
Therefore, different duty rates for modules and cells should have been established.
Zato je treba določiti različne stopnje dajatev za module in celice.
In this respect, it is confirmed that the difference between modules and cells was indeed taken into account when sampling Union producers and Chinese exporters, as indicated in recitals (10) and (14) to the provisional Regulation.
V zvezi s tem je potrjeno, da se je pri vzorčenju proizvajalcev Unije in kitajskih proizvajalcev razlika med moduli in celicami dejansko upoštevala, kot je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah (10) in (14) začasne uredbe.
This, however, was only done to ensure that the sample is representative and does as such not mean that cells and modules should not be considered a single product concerned, or that separate duty rates should be established for cells and modules.
Vendar je bilo to narejeno samo zato, da se zagotovi reprezentativnost vzorca in ne pomeni, da se celice in moduli ne bi smeli šteti za en sam zadevni izdelek ali da je treba zanje določiti ločene stopnje dajatev.
Indeed, in order to ensure that the sample was representative for all product types, it was important to distinguish between cells and modules when selecting the sample.
Za zagotovitev, da je bil vzorec reprezentativen za vse vrste izdelka, je bilo ločevanje med celicami in moduli pri izbiri vzorca dejansko pomembno.
Furthermore, as there was a certain degree of uncertainty with regards to the question as to whether cells and modules were to be regarded as one product or as two separate products, it was necessary to ensure representativity for both possible outcomes.
Zaradi določene negotovosti glede vprašanja, ali se celice in moduli štejejo za en ali za dva ločena izdelka, je bilo treba zagotoviti reprezentativnost za oba morebitna rezultata.
In addition, it is argued that recital (100) below stating that the processing costs for modules are significant is in contradiction with recital (32) to the provisional Regulation, which states that the value added is not concentrated in a particular stage of the production process.
Poleg tega se je trdilo, da je uvodna izjava (100), v kateri je navedeno, da so stroški predelavi za module bistveni, v nasprotju z uvodno izjavo (32) začasne uredbe, v kateri je navedeno, da dodana vrednost ni koncentrirana v določeni stopnji proizvodnega procesa.
In this respect, it is recalled that recital (100) also clarifies that the cost difference between cells and modules is 34 %, which means that 66 % of the value of a modules stems from the cell.
V zvezi s tem se opozarja, da je v uvodni izjavi (100) pojasnjeno tudi, da razlika v stroških med celicami in moduli znaša 34 %, kar pomeni, da 66 % vrednosti modulov izhaja iz celic.
It is therefore concluded that the value added is not concentrated in a particular stage of the production process.
Zato se je sklenilo, da dodana vrednost ni koncentrirana v določeni stopnji proizvodnega procesa.
Exporting producers claimed that the fact that the undertaking imposes different minimum import prices and volumes for cells and modules allegedly confirms that modules and cells are distinct products requiring two distinct investigations.
Proizvajalci izvozniki so trdili, da naj bi dejstvo, da zaveza uvaja različne minimalne uvozne cene in obsege za celice in module, potrjevalo, da gre za dva različna izdelka, za katera se zahtevata dve različni preiskavi.
The different minimum import prices, however, are merely an indication that cells and modules are different groups of product types which are sold at different prices.
Vendar so različne minimalne uvozne cene le znak, da so celice in moduli različni skupini vrst izdelka, ki se prodajajo po različnih cenah.
Therefore, it is necessary to define different prices to make the minimum import prices meaningful.
Zato je treba določiti različne cene, da so minimalne uvozne cene smiselne.
Also, the fact that cells and modules are distinct groups of product types is not as such relevant for the definition of the product concerned.
Prav tako dejstvo, da so celice in moduli različni skupini vrst izdelka, samo po sebi za opredelitev zadevnega izdelka ni tako pomembno.
For the definition of the product concerned, it is sufficient that the products share the same basic characteristics and end uses, which is the case for modules and cells as described in recitals (32) and (48) respectively.
Za opredelitev zadevnega izdelka zadostuje, da imajo izdelki skupne osnovne značilnosti in končne uporabe, kar za module in celice velja, kot je opisano v uvodnih izjavah (32) in (48).
The GOC argued that the assessment whether cells and modules are a single product concerned does not address a number of criteria defined by the Appelate Body in EC — Asbestos [6].
Kitajska vlada je trdila, da ocena v zvezi z določitvijo, ali so celice in moduli en sam izdelek, ne obravnava številnih meril, ki jih je opredelil pritožbeni organ v zadevi ES – azbest [6].
However, these criteria are used for the definition of the ‘like product’, not the product concerned.
Vendar se ta merila se uporabljajo za opredelitev „podobnega izdelka“ in ne zadevnega izdelka.
In other words, these criteria have to be used to define the like product, for example the like product produced by Union Industry, which is then compared with the product concerned exported by the Chinese exporting producers.
Povedano drugače, ta merila se morajo uporabljati za opredelitev podobnega izdelka, na primer podobnega izdelka, proizvedenega v industriji Unije, ki se nato primerja z zadevnim izdelkom, ki so ga izvozili kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki.
These criteria are not pertinent when defining the product concerned.
Ta merila niso primerna za opredeljevanje zadevnega izdelka.
In any event, the Institutions observe that the application of the criteria used in EC — Asbestos to the definition of the product concerned in the present case would not lead to a different outcome.
Kakor koli, instituciji ugotavljata, da uporaba meril, uporabljenih v zadevi ES – azbest, pri opredelitvi zadevnega izdelka v zadevnem primeru ne bi vodila k drugačnemu izidu.
The first and the second criteria (properties, nature and quality respectively end-uses) are identical to the criteria physical, chemical and technical properties and end-uses used in the preceeding recitals.
Prvo in drugo merilo (lastnosti, narava in kakovost oziroma končne uporabe) sta enaki merilu glede fizikalnih, kemičnih in tehničnih lastnosti ter končnih uporab iz prejšnjih uvodnih izjav.
The third criterion (consumers taste and habits) is not really useful for the present case, as cells are the key component of modules; as regards the fourth criterion, tariff classification, it is noted that both cells and modules can be declared under customs heading 8541 40 90, while the customs headings under heading 8501 are for electric generators in general and not in particular for solar products.
Tretje merilo (okus in navada potrošnikov) za zadevni primer ni uporabno, saj so celice ključni del modulov; glede četrtega merila (tarifna uvrstitev) je treba opozoriti, da se lahko prav tako celice kot tudi moduli navedejo pod carinsko oznako 8541 40 90, medtem ko carinske oznake pod oznako 8501 veljajo za električne generatorje na splošno in ne posebej za solarne izdelke.
Other interested parties argued that an objective application of the criteria developed by the Court of Justice in previous cases [7] allegedly leads to the conclusion that modules and cells are different products.
Druge zainteresirane strani so trdile, da naj bi objektivna uporaba meril, ki jih je razvilo Sodišče v prejšnjih zadevah [7], vodila k sklepu, da so moduli in celice različni izdelki.
In this respect, it is noted that the court only indicated a number of criteria which may be taken into account — there is no obligation to use all criteria in all cases, since not all of them may be relevant.
V zvezi s tem je treba opozoriti, da je Sodišče le navedlo številna merila, ki se jih lahko upošteva, vendar vseh ni treba uporabljati v vseh zadevah, saj nekatera od njih morda niso ustrezna.
