    SolarWorld AG welcomes U.S. trade decision on anti-dumping duties

    The U.S. Department of Commerce today announced that it would impose
    anti-dumping duties higher than 50 percent on U.S. imports of solar power
    products from China and about 20 percent from Taiwan in cases brought by
    SolarWorld Industries America Inc., a subsidiary of German solar company
    SolarWorld AG.

    The company welcomed the U.S. government decision. Dr.-Ing. E. h. Frank AsbeckAsbeck, Chief Executive Officer of SolarWorld AG: "The U.S. government is
    serious in taking action against illegal dumping from China. Thus, fair
    competition can return to the U.S. market. Now the market will reward
    producers that offer the best quality and competitive prices, not those
    gaining the most improper government aid for exports, as Chinese
    competitors do."

    In Hillsboro/Oregon, SolarWorld operates the largest and most advanced
    solar photovoltaics production facility in the United States. In the third
    quarter of 2014, the growing U.S. solar market accounted for more than 40
    percent of SolarWorld's sales. As in Europe, where SolarWorld also is the
    largest solar manufacturer with its production in Germany, SolarWorld
    places its chief focus on the quality, durability and efficiency of its
    solar products.

    Today's decision of the Department of Commerce is the second last step to
    finalized duties in the U.S., on which the U.S. International Trade
    Committee will decide end of January. In the past, commissioners voted only
    favorably for the U.S. solar industry's interest in fair competition. The
    new measures would complement the existing duties in place since December
    2012 against solar modules containing cells from China and would end the
    circumvention committed on a large scale by Chinese companies.

    SolarWorld REAL VALUE: SolarWorld manufactures and sells solar power
    solutions and in doing so contributes to a cleaner energy supply worldwide.

    people and carries out production in Freiberg, Germany; Arnstadt, Germany;
