Trump issues tariffs and minimum import price for polysilicon
The measures target polysilicon, used in semiconductors and solar panels, including tariffs on products made with the material.
The New York Times reports that the Trump administration will impose a minimum import price for polysilicon, a key input for semiconductors and solar panels.
The administration will also apply tariffs to products made using polysilicon, expanding the trade restrictions beyond the raw material itself.
The policy is framed as affecting the cost and supply of a material central to electronics manufacturing and solar production.
