Factor This! — a podcast designed specifically for the solar industry by Renewable Energy World — launches May 9 with the first of a four-part series on the contentious Auxin Solar tariff petition.
The podcast debuts with an exclusive interview with Auxin Solar CEO Mamun Rashid — his first extensive interview since filing an anti-dumping and countervailing duties petition with the U.S. Department of Commerce. That petition, and the subsequent decision by Commerce to launch an investigation, has sent shockwaves through the domestic U.S. solar industry, reigniting debate and worry over supply chains, carbon reduction goals, and project development pipelines.
