A new joint white paper finds that aluminum extrusion — the most capital-intensive step in frame production — must occur in the United States for solar module frames to qualify for the Section 45Y/48E domestic content bonus credit.
Coalition for a Prosperous America (CPA) and the Prague Security Studies Institute (PSSI) have released a joint report, U.S. Underwriting of Chinese Military Companies Operating in Latin America, which details how Beijing is working to penetrate and control the space sectors of Latin American countries through dozens of ostensibly commercial agreements concluded with its state-controlled Chinese space companies that, in effect, act as fronts for the People’s Liberation Army.

With the right policy framework and close coordination with European partners, we can rebuild domestic capacity, strengthen allied production, and secure essential medicines for the long term.
The findings reinforce a persistent pattern in global solar trade: when enforcement actions target specific countries, production and shipments shift to new jurisdictions.
