Utility Scale Windtowers From Indonesia: Preliminary Results and Rescission, In Part, of the Antidumping Duty Admninistrative Review; 2023-2024
Published Date: 2/10/2026
Notice
Summary
The U.S. Department of Commerce found that big wind towers from Indonesia weren’t sold at unfairly low prices between August 2023 and July 2024. They’re also stopping the review for six companies that didn’t ship any wind towers during that time. This means no extra duties for now, but folks involved can still share their thoughts before the final decision.
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 3 costs, 1 mixed.
Zero Preliminary Dumping Margin for Kenertec
The Department of Commerce preliminarily found a 0.00% weighted-average dumping margin for PT. Kenertec Power System for the period August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2024. If the final results also show 0.00%, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to liquidate Kenertec's entries from that period without regard to antidumping duties.
Importer Certificate Requirement and Double-Duty Risk
Importers must file a certificate regarding reimbursement of antidumping duties prior to liquidation under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2). If an importer fails to file this certificate, Commerce may presume reimbursement occurred and assess double antidumping duties on the relevant entries.
Review Rescinded for Six Named Companies
Commerce is rescinding, in part, the administrative review for six named companies (GE Indonesia; GE Renewable Energy; General Electric Indonesia; Korindo Wind; Nordex SE; and PT. Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy) because they had no recorded entries of subject wind towers during August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2024. For those rescinded companies, Commerce will instruct CBP to assess antidumping duties on appropriate entries at a rate equal to the cash deposit required at the time of entry during the period of review, and assessment instructions will be issued no earlier than 35 days after this notice publishes.
Automatic Assessment at 8.53% All-Others Rate
Commerce will instruct CBP to liquidate entries of subject merchandise produced by Kenertec for which Kenertec did not know the merchandise was destined for the United States at the all-others rate of 8.53%, if there is no applicable rate for any intermediate companies. This applies to entries during the period covered by this review (August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2024).
Future Cash Deposit Rate Rules After Final Results
When Commerce publishes the final results of this review, cash deposit requirements for future shipments will take effect for entries on or after that publication date: (1) company cash deposit rates will equal the weighted-average margins from the final results unless the rate is less than 0.50%, in which case the cash deposit rate will be zero; (2) exporters covered in prior segments will use their most recent company-specific rate; (3) if the exporter is not covered but the producer is, the producer's most recent rate applies; and (4) all other producers/exporters will have the all-others cash deposit rate of 8.50%.
