The US is preparing to impose tariffs of up to 3,521% on solar panel imports from four Southeast Asian countries following an investigation into alleged Chinese subsidies. Cambodia faces the highest tariffs due to lack of cooperation. Critics argue this will harm US solar producers. Separately, the IEA head, Fatih Birol, expressed concern about energy security, highlighting the need for diversification, predictability, and global cooperation. He noted that lessons from the Ukraine crisis haven't been fully learned, citing trade wars as a source of uncertainty. A major energy summit in London will address these issues, though China's absence is a setback.
