Sounds similar to what Europe did. Europe added a 47% anti-dumping and anti-subsidy tariff on Chinese solar panels years ago because Chinese manufacturers were selling them below cost. Many commentators have pointed out China aggressively subsidized their solar industry in an effort to starve foreign competition and dominate the global market. Looking back it seems like their effort has been rather successful. Two-thirds of the world's solar panel production capacity is now controlled by China.
