Canada's CITT continued, in expiry review RR-2025-006, its December 30, 2020 order from expiry review RR-2019-006 on dumped oil country tubular goods from Chinese Taipei, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Thailand, Türkiye and Vietnam, except goods exported from South Korea by Hyundai Steel Company and from Türkiye by Borusan Mannesmann Boru Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş., and rescinded its order on such goods from Ukraine.

McKinsey & Company's Global Energy Perspective 2026 finds that under its "Fragmented Energy Order" scenario, tariffs and trade restrictions raise U.S. clean-technology costs, with battery energy storage facing the largest premium among low-carbon assets at a 40% to 50% increase in capital expenditure, driven by cathode material tariffs, critical mineral bottlenecks and supply chain localization barriers. The report says broad duties on steel and aluminum add indirect capital costs to balance-of-system components, including aluminum frames, which it puts at roughly 14% of total solar panel production costs, and steel used in ground-mounted tracking and racking.
