Re: Circulation of the Panel Report on “Canada – Certain Measures Affecting the Renewable Energy Generation Sector”
On December 19th (local time in Geneva), the WTO circulated the Panel Report on “Canada – Certain Measures Affecting the Renewable Energy Generation Sector” which has approved the complainants’ claim and ruled that Canada’s local content requirement under the Feed in Tariff program is inconsistent with the relevant WTO rules.
Japan welcomes this panel’s ruling and requests Canada faithfully and promptly bring its measures into conformity with its obligation under the relevant WTO rules.
