In Las Vegas the day before yesterday SolarPowerInternational speaking, the Vice president of solar energy industries association (SEIA) trade and competitiveness, John Smirnow, said the distance to reach an agreement about two weeks.

The U.S. department of commerce will release its final ruling in the middle of December on photovoltaic exports anti-dumping and countervailing duties of China and Taiwan.

SEIA has dominated the discussion between lead plaintiff Solar World and Chinese industries, aiming to settle this dispute negotiation. According to the dispute, China has been accused of outsourcing production to Taiwanese company to avoid tariffs in early 2012.

If the so-called suspension mechanism is agreed, Smil, said before the ministry of commerce announced its final ruling, there will be at least 30 days to reach an agreement.

Smil, said he hoped to reach an agreement, if agreed, it will most likely to include a minimum price agreement and an import quota, similar to last year's agreement to the EU and China.
