Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Great British Energy Bill

Contribution

The report names Canadian Solar, JA Solar, Jinko Solar, LONGi Solar, Maxeon Solar Technologies/SunPower, Meyer Burger Technology AG, Qcells, REC, Tongwei Solar, and Trina Solar. All companies were found to participate in state-imposed forced labour schemes. I note here that Canadian Solar was a major beneficiary in the recent solar development announcements made by the new Secretary of State. I note, too, that all the information used to compile these important reports comes from publicly available documents, many of which are Chinese government documents.
