With global efforts intensifying to block goods linked to forced labor, the solar industry faces increasing scrutiny. In the U.S., the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) has led to the seizure of over $500 million worth of goods at borders since 2022. To address this, the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) is launching the SEIA 101 standard in early 2025, offering a roadmap for companies to trace the origins of solar products from raw materials to finished goods. https://lnkd.in/gKfkefVn While the standard may seem like an additional challenge, it’s a vital tool for mitigating risks, avoiding customs delays, and keeping projects on schedule. Solar companies aligning with SEIA 101 will not only ensure compliance but also strengthen supply chain transparency, reduce disruptions, and enhance operational efficiency. ??
