SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    On February 6, 2020, in response to review requests from multiple 
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

[[Page 21278]]

of China (China).\1\ The POR is December 1, 2018, through November 30, 
2019. On April 24, 2020 and July 21, 2020, Commerce tolled all 
deadlines in administrative reviews by 50 days and 60 days 
respectively, thereby extending the deadline for these preliminary 
results of review until December 21, 2020.\2\ On December 17, 2020, and 
again on March 9, 2021, Commerce extended the time limit for completing 
the preliminary results of this review.\3\ The deadline for issuing the 
preliminary results of this review is April 16, 2021.

Silicon Photovoltaic Cells, Whether or not Assembled into Modules, 
from the People's Republic of China,'' issued concurrently with and 
hereby adopted by this notice (Preliminary Decision Memorandum).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Preliminary Determination of No Shipments

    We found no evidence calling into question the no shipment claims 
of the following companies/company groupings: (1) BYD (Shangluo) 
Industrial Co., Ltd., (2) Changzhou Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd., Trina 
Solar (Changzhou) Science and Technology Co., Ltd., Yancheng Trina 
Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd., Changzhou Trina Solar Yabang Energy 
Co., Ltd., Turpan Trina Solar Energy Co., Ltd., Hubei Trina Solar 
Energy Co., Ltd., Trina Solar (Hefei) Science and Technology Co., Ltd., 
and (3) Shanghai BYD Co., Ltd. We also found that Wuxi Suntech Power 
Co., Ltd/Luoyang Suntech Power Co., Ltd. did not ship subject 
merchandise to the United States during the POR. For additional 
information regarding these preliminary determinations, see the 
Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Partial Rescission of Administrative Review

    Pursuant to 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1), Commerce will rescind an 
administrative review, in whole or in part, if all parties that 
requested a review withdraw their requests within 90 days of the 
publication date of the notice of initiation of the requested review. 
All parties withdrew their requests for an administrative review of JA 
Solar Technology Yangzhou Co., Ltd., JingAo Solar Co., Ltd., and 
Shanghai JA Solar Technology Co., Ltd. within 90 days of the date of 
publication of the Initiation Notice. Accordingly, Commerce is 
rescinding this review with respect to these companies, in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.213(d)(1).

Preliminary Affiliation and Single Entity Determination

    We have determined that Jinko Solar Co., Ltd (Jiangxi Jinko); 
JinkoSolar Technology (Haining) Co., Ltd. (Haining Jinko); Yuhuan Jinko 
Solar Co., Ltd. (Yuhuan Jinko); Zhejiang Jinko Solar Co., Ltd (Zhejiang 
Jinko); and Jiangsu Jinko Tiansheng Solar Co., Ltd. (Jiangsu Jinko) and 
Jinko Solar Import and Export Co., Ltd. (Jinko IE) (collectively, 
Jinko), are affiliated pursuant to section 771(33)(F) of the Tariff Act 
of 1930, as amended (the Act), and that all of these companies should 
be treated as a single entity pursuant to 19 CFR 351.401(f)(1)-(2). For 
additional information, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum and 
Jinko Collapsing Memorandum.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ Our affiliation and collapsing analysis is based on 
information that has been designated business proprietary 
information. For additional details, see Memorandum, ``Antidumping 
Duty Administrative Review of Crystalline Silicon Photovoltaic 
Cells, Whether or not Assembled into Modules, from the People's 
Republic of China: Affiliation and Collapsing Memorandum for Jinko 
Solar Import and Export Co., Ltd.,'' issued concurrently with this 
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Also, we have determined that the single entity--Risen Energy Co. 
Ltd., Risen (Wuhai) New Energy Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Twinsel Electronic 
Technology Co., Ltd., Risen (Luoyang) New Energy Co., Ltd., Jiujiang 
Shengchao Xinye Technology Co., Ltd., Jiujiang Shengzhao Xinye Trade 
Co., Ltd., Ruichang Branch, Risen Energy (HongKong) Co., Ltd., Risen 
Energy (Changzhou) Co., Ltd. (Changzhou) is affiliated with Risen 
Energy (YIWU) Co., Ltd., pursuant to section 771(33)(E) of the Act and 
that all of these companies should be treated as a single entity 
pursuant to 19 CFR 351.401(f)(1)-(2). For additional information, see 
the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.

Separate Rates

    We have preliminarily determined that the information placed on the 
record by Jinko and Risen, 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.
    We have preliminarily determined that the companies listed in 
Appendix II have not demonstrated their entitlement to separate rates 
status because they did not file a separate rate application or 
certification with

[[Page 21279]]

Commerce. We are treating the companies listed in Appendix II 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.\9\ In addition, 
because we determined that Wuxi Suntech Power Co., Ltd/Luoyang Suntech 
Power Co., Ltd. did not ship subject merchandise to the United States 
during the POR, we have not considered its separate rate application. 
For additional information regarding Commerce's preliminary separate 
rates determinations, see the Preliminary Decision Memorandum.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ 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 review. 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 Final Determination of No Shipments; 2012-2013, 80 FR 
40998, 41002 (July 14, 2015) (AR1 Final); see also 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 Final Determination of No Shipments; 
2017-2018, 85 FR 62275 (October 2, 2020).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dumping Margins for Separate Rate Companies

    The statute and Commerce's regulations do not address what rate to 
apply to respondents not selected for individual examination when 
Commerce limits its examination in an administrative review pursuant to 
section 777A(c)(2) of the Act. Generally, Commerce looks to section 
735(c)(5) of the Act, which provides instructions for calculating the 
all-others rate in an investigation, for guidance when calculating the 
rate for non-selected respondents that are not examined individually in 
an administrative review. Section 735(c)(5)(A) of the Act states that 
the all-others rate should be calculated by averaging the weighted-
average dumping margins for individually-examined respondents, 
excluding rates that are zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts 
available. Where the rates for the individually for the individually 
examined companies are all zero, de minimis, or based entirely on facts 
available, section 735(c)(5)(B) of the Act provides that Commerce may 
use ``any reasonable method'' to establish the all-others rate. We 
preliminary assigned the respondents not selected for individual 
examination to which we granted a separate rate the dumping margin 
calculated for Jinko.

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,\10\ within the meaning of section 771(18) of the Act, Commerce 
calculated normal value in accordance with section 773(c) 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.\19\ Commerce intends to issue assessment instructions to CBP no 
earlier than 35 days after date of publication of the final results of 
this review in the Federal Register. If a timely summons is filed at 
the U.S. Court of International Trade, the assessment instructions will 
direct CBP not to liquidate relevant entries until the time for parties 
to file a request for a statutory injunction has expired (i.e., within 
90 days of publication).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ See 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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/customer-specific assessment rates, in accordance 
with 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1).\20\ Where the respondent reported reliable 
entered values, Commerce intends to calculate importer/customer-
specific ad valorem assessment rates by aggregating the amount of 
dumping calculated for all U.S. sales to the importer/customer and 
dividing this amount by the total entered value of the merchandise sold 
to the importer/customer.\21\ Where the respondent did not report 
entered values, Commerce will calculate importer/customer-specific 
assessment rates by dividing the amount of dumping for reviewed sales 
to the importer/customer by the total quantity of those sales. Commerce 
will calculate an estimated ad valorem importer/customer-specific 
assessment rate to determine whether the per-unit assessment rate is de 
minimis; however, Commerce will use the per-unit assessment rate where 
entered values were not reported.\22\ Where an importer/customer-
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/customer-specific ad 
valorem assessment rate is zero or de minimis, Commerce will instruct 
CBP to liquidate appropriate entries without regard to antidumping 
duties.\23\

Average Dumping Margin and Assessment Rate in Certain Antidumping

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

    For the respondents that were not selected for individual 
examination in this administrative review, but which qualified for a 
separate rate, the assessment rate will be based on the weighted-
average dumping margin(s) assigned to the respondent(s), as 
appropriate, in the final results of this review.\24\

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

    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 the entry of such merchandise at the dumping margin for the 
China-wide entity.\25\ Additionally, where Commerce determines that an 
exporter under review had no shipments of subject merchandise to the 
United States during the POR, any suspended entries of subject 
merchandise that entered under that exporter's CBP case number during 
the POR will be liquidated at the dumping margin for the China-wide 
entity.

of Antidumping Duties, 76 FR 65694 (October 24, 2011), for a full

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

    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.

Cash Deposit Requirements

    Commerce will instruct CBP to require a cash deposit for 
antidumping duties equal to the weighted-average amount by which the 
normal value

[[Page 21281]]

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 in the Federal Register, as provided by 
section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) For the exporters listed in the 
table above, the cash deposit rate will be equal to the weighted-
average dumping margin established in the final results of this review 
for the exporter (except, if the dumping margin 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 that are not listed in the table above but that 
have separate rates, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the 
exporter-specific rate established in 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 the China exporter that 
supplied that non-Chinese exporter. These deposit requirements, when 
imposed, shall remain in effect until further notice.

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.

sections 751(a)(1) and 777(i)(1) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.213 and
