South Africa imposes a 10% import tariff on solar panels

July 11, 2024

The South African International Trade Commission (ITAC) has imposed a 10% tariff on imported crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules and panels. The management committee issued a statement on its website stating that the reason for imposing tariffs is to protect South African solar panel manufacturers. At present, this tariff has come into effect.

ITAC stated that this also takes into account other factors, including domestic manufacturers reducing investment due to fierce competition from low-priced imported products, as well as a significant decline in the production, sales, and capacity utilization of domestic components.

ARTsolar, a local solar panel manufacturer in South Africa, has submitted an application to ITAC to increase tariffs on solar modules.
