India's Solar Panel Exports Decline Sharply Amidst US Trade Measures
India's solar module exports significantly decreased in September, reaching their lowest point this year, primarily due to U.S. trade measures and increased scrutiny on imports. This decline has led manufacturers to redirect supplies to the domestic market, raising concerns about potential oversupply. Analysts predict consolidation among smaller firms, while vertically integrated companies are expected to fare better. The U.S. had previously been a major destination for Indian solar panel exports.
