Photo taken on May 23, 2012 shows a single crystalline silicon rod, which set local record for its length, in a manufacturing company of solar photovoltaic (PV) products in Wenling City, east China's Zhejiang Province. Now the company has stopped its production of solar PV products. The European Commission on Aug. 2, 2013 said that it had adopted a decision to accept the undertaking offered by Chinese exporting producers of solar panels, as well as a regulation exempting participating companies from paying provisional anti-dumping duties. The agreement, which will take effect on Aug. 6, came nearly two months after the European Commission decided on June 4 to impose provisional anti-dumping duties on imports of solar panels, cells and wafers from China.
