SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    This administrative review is being conducted in accordance with 
section 751(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). On 
March 14, 2019, in response to review requests from multiple interested 
parties, Commerce initiated an administrative review of the antidumping 
duty order on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells, whether or not 
assembled into modules (solar cells), from the People's Republic of 
China (China).\1\ The period of review (POR) is December 1, 2017 
through November 30, 2018. On May 6, 2019, Commerce selected two 
exporters to individually examine as mandatory respondents, Trina \2\ 
and Risen.\3\ During the course of this review, the mandatory 
respondents filed responses to Commerce's questionnaire and 
supplemental questionnaires, the petitioner (SolarWorld Americas Inc.) 
commented on those responses, and multiple other companies for which 
Commerce initiated the review filed either no-shipment claims or 
applications or certifications for separate rates status. For details 
regarding the events that occurred subsequent to the initiation of the 
review, see the Issues and Decision Memorandum.\4\

concurrently with this memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Use of Partial Facts Available (FA) and Partial Adverse Facts Available 
(AFA)

    Certain unaffiliated tollers of inputs used to produce subject 
merchandise, as well as certain unaffiliated suppliers of solar cells 
and solar modules, failed to provide factors of production (FOP) data 
for use in calculating the weighted-average dumping margins of Risen 
and Trina. We preliminarily determine that it is appropriate to apply 
AFA, pursuant to section 776(a) and (b) of the Act, with respect to the 
unreported FOPs for purchased solar cells and solar modules. These 
unreported FOPs for solar cells and solar modules represent a material 
amount of necessary FOP information. However, in accordance with 
section 776(a)(1) of the Act, Commerce is applying facts available with 
respect to the unreported FOPs for the inputs used by the unaffiliated 
tollers. For details regarding these determinations, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum and

Risen and Trina's Unreported FOP Memoranda.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ See Memorandum, ``Unreported Factors of Production: Risen 
Energy Co. Ltd.'' and ``Unreported Factors of Production: Trina 
Solar Co., Ltd..'' issued concurrently with and hereby adopted by 
this notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Separate Rates

    Commerce preliminarily determines that the information placed on 
the record by Risen and Trina, as well as by the other companies listed 
in the rate table in the ``Preliminary Results of Review'' section 
below, demonstrates that these companies are entitled to separate rate 
status. Commerce calculated rates for the mandatory respondents, Risen 
and Trina, that are not zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts 
available and calculated a rate for the companies to which it granted 
separate rates status, but which it did not individually examine, as 
described in the Separate Rate Calculation Memorandum \10\ and the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See Memorandum, ``2017-2018 Administrative Review of the 
Antidumping Duty Order on Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Cells, 
Whether or not Assembled into Modules, from the People's Republic of 
China: Calculation of the Dumping Margin for Respondents Not 
Selected for Individual Examination,'' dated concurrently with this 
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Commerce preliminarily determines that the following companies have 
not demonstrated their entitlement to separate rates status because 
they did not file a separate rate application or certification with 
Commerce:

    1. De-Tech Trading Limited HK
    2. Dongguan Sunworth Solar Energy Co., Ltd.
    3. Eoplly New Energy Technology Co., Ltd.
    4. ERA Solar Co., Ltd.
    5. ET Solar Energy Limited
    6. Hangzhou Sunny Energy Science and Technology Co., Ltd.
    7. Hengdian Group DMEGC Magnetics Co., Ltd.
    8. Jiangsu High Hope Int'l Group
    9. Jiawei Solarchina (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd.
    10. LightWay Green New Energy Co., Ltd.
    11. Ningbo Qixin Solar Electrical Appliance Co., Ltd.
    12. Systemes Versilis, Inc.
    13. tenKsolar (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.
    14. Toenergy Technology Hangzhou Co., Ltd.
    15. Wuxi Suntech Power Co., Ltd/Luoyang Suntech Power Co., Ltd.
    16. Zhejiang ERA Solar Technology Co., Ltd.

Commerce is preliminarily treating these companies as part of the 
China-wide entity. Because no party requested a review of the China-
wide entity, the entity is not under review and the entity's rate 
(i.e., 238.95 percent) is not subject to change.\11\ For additional 
information regarding Commerce's separate rates determinations, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \11\ The China-wide entity rate was last changed in the first 
administrative review of this proceeding and has been the applicable 
rate for the entity in each subsequent review, including the one 
most recently completed. See Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic Cells, 
Whether or Not Assembled Into Modules, from the People's Republic of 
China: Final Results of Antidumping Duty Administrative Review and

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Methodology

    Commerce is conducting this administrative review in accordance 
with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Act. Commerce calculated export and 
constructed export prices in accordance with section 772 of the Act. 
Because Commerce has determined that China is a non-market economy 
country,\12\ within the meaning of section 771(18) of the Act, Commerce 
calculated NV in accordance with section 773(c) of the Act.

(July 6, 2011).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Unless otherwise extended, Commerce intends to issue the final 
results of this administrative review, which will include the results 
of its analysis of issues raised in any briefs, within 120 days of 
publication of these preliminary results of review, pursuant to section 
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act.

Assessment Rates

    Upon issuance of the final results of this review, Commerce will 
determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) shall assess, 
antidumping duties on all appropriate entries covered by this 
review.\20\ Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP 15 
days after the publication date of the final results of this review. 
For each individually examined respondent in this review whose 
weighted-average dumping margin in the final results of review is not 
zero or de minimis (i.e., less than 0.5 percent), Commerce intends to 
calculate importer-specific assessment rates, in accordance with 19 CFR 
351.212(b)(1).\21\ Where the respondent reported reliable entered 
values, Commerce intends to calculate importer-specific ad valorem 
assessment rates by aggregating the amount of dumping calculated for 
all U.S. sales to the importer and dividing this amount by the total 
entered value of the sales to the importer.\22\ Where the respondent 
did not report entered values, Commerce will calculate importer-
specific assessment rates by dividing the amount of dumping for 
reviewed sales to the importer by the total sales quantity associated 
with those transactions. Commerce will calculate an estimated ad 
valorem importer-specific assessment rate to determine whether the per-
unit rate is de minimis. However, Commerce will direct CBP to assess 
importer-specific assessment rates where the entered value was not 
reported based on the resulting per-unit rates.\23\ Where an importer-
specific ad valorem assessment rate is not zero or de minimis, Commerce 
will instruct CBP to collect the appropriate duties at the time of 
liquidation. Where either the respondent's weighted average dumping 
margin is zero or de minimis, or an importer-specific ad valorem 
assessment rate is zero or de minimis, Commerce will instruct CBP to 
liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping duties.\24\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \20\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
    \21\ See Antidumping Proceedings: Calculation of the Weighted 
Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping 
Proceedings: Final Modification, 77 FR 8101 (February 14, 2012)

    \23\ Id.
    \24\ See Final Modification, 77 FR at 8103.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Pursuant to Commerce's refinement to its practice, for sales that 
were not reported in the U.S. sales database submitted by an exporter 
individually examined during this review, Commerce will instruct CBP to 
liquidate such merchandise at the rate for the China-wide entity.\25\ 
Additionally, where Commerce determines that an exporter under review 
had no shipments of the subject merchandise, any suspended entries that 
entered under that exporter's CBP case number will be liquidated at the 
rate for the China-wide entity.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See Non-Market Economy Antidumping Proceedings: Assessment 
of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011), for a full 
discussion of this practice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act, the final 
results of this review shall be the basis for the assessment of 
antidumping duties on entries of merchandise covered by the final 
results of this review and for future deposits of estimated antidumping 
duties, where applicable.

[[Page 7535]]

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Commerce will instruct CBP to require a cash deposit for 
antidumping duties equal to the weighted-average amount by which the NV 
exceeds U.S. price. The following cash deposit requirements will be 
effective for shipments of the subject merchandise from China entered, 
or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after the 
publication date of this notice, as provided by section 751(a)(2)(C) of 
the Act: (1) For the exporters listed above, the cash deposit rate will 
be equal to the weighted-average dumping margin established in the 
final results of this review (except, if the rate is de minimis (i.e., 
less than 0.5 percent), then the cash deposit rate will be zero for 
that exporter); (2) for previously investigated or reviewed Chinese and 
non-Chinese exporters not listed above that have separate rates, the 
cash deposit rate will continue to be the exporter-specific rate 
published for the most recently completed segment of this proceeding; 
(3) for all Chinese exporters of subject merchandise which have not 
been found to be entitled to a separate rate, the cash deposit rate 
will be the rate for the China-wide entity (i.e., 238.95 percent); \26\ 
and (4) for all non-Chinese exporters of subject merchandise that have 
not received their own rate, the cash deposit rate will be the rate 
applicable to China exporter that supplied that non-Chinese exporter. 
These deposit requirements, when imposed, shall remain in effect until 
further notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \26\ See AR1 Final, 80 FR at 41002.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notification to Importers

    This notice also serves as a preliminary reminder to importers of 
their responsibility under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a certificate 
regarding the reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or countervailing 
duties prior to liquidation of the relevant entries during this POR. 
Failure to comply with this requirement could result in Commerce's 
presumption that reimbursement of antidumping duties and/or 
countervailing duties has occurred, and the subsequent assessment of 
double antidumping duties and/or an increase in the amount of 
antidumping duties by the amount of the countervailing duties.

Notification to Interested Parties

    We are issuing and publishing these results in accordance with 
sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213 and 
351.221(b)(4).
