在国内普遍的舆论中，我们总是幻想着其它国家的人民爱好和平，性情朴实，却往往不去想究竟是谁将这些对华强硬的政客推举上台的。我们总认为美国人民爱好“和平”，理智且为平价上网不懈奋斗。但事实真的如此吗？
Petersendean，美国最大的民营屋顶和光伏开发商，今天致公开信于美国太阳能产业协会（SEIA），呼吁SEIA为在美国国际贸易委员会（ITC）发起的双反听证会上的态度立即辞职，并上纲上线的提出了要求对该协会进行道德调查。因为该公司认为SEIA在调查上代表了中国和台湾企业的利益。

Petersendean太阳能业务总裁Erin Clark认为是SEIA的支持让中国公司破坏了美国太阳能的生机，让美国人失去工作，而且称这与美国正在复苏的经济背道而驰。该公司已经做好了长期购买美国产品的计划。（虽然这值得怀疑，Solarworld仍然算是一家德国公司……）
虽然之前SEIA清醒的认识到双反对美国光伏产业将造成不利影响，总裁Rhone Resch用“适可而止”这个词来警告美国商务部，但“有钱任性”的美国人看起来并不领情。
2012年，这家公司与阿特斯还颇有交情，但2014年，该公司已经和Solarworld好得穿一条裤子，那时，这家公司就已经决定全部采购美国生产的产品了。
Solarbe特别附上了这封奇葩的信件，从里面可以看出，中国文革都已经结束这么多年了，但美国人民还是很擅长扣帽子。
现在，美国最大的系统集成商都跳出来叫嚣了，爱好和平的中国政府，将何去何从？原文点击
The full letter is included with this news release and will be delivered to SEIA on Tuesday, December 16, 2014. The letter calls for the immediate resignation of Rhone Resch the president and CEO of SEIA, the entire Executive Committee of SEIA and ALL board members whose parent companies are in China.
about PetersenDean/Solar4America: Founded in 1984 by Jim Petersen, PetersenDean is the largest, full-service, privately-held roofing and solar company in the United States. Specializing in residential and new home construction, PetersenDean works with some of the nation’s largest builders and developers. With more than a million roofs under its belt, the Fremont, CA-based company employs 4,600 and operates in five states: Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, and Texas.

This letter is to inform you that we are asking the president and full board of the Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) to resign immediately because of your recent position in the International Trade Commission (ITC) hearings regarding the imposition of anti-subsidy and anti-dumping duties against China and Taiwan. We are also asking for an ethics investigation under the SEIA by-laws, including Article 10.
We were impressed to see SEIA vice president for trade and competitiveness John Smirnow testify last Monday, December 8, 2014, with some of the biggest manufacturing names in our industry. That said, we were confused. In spite of these companies having been found guilty of illegal and unfair widespread underselling and dumping of Chinese solar panels and their components in the U.S. market (three times by the Commission in some cases), SEIA supported them. SEIA is an American solar trade organization that should not be representing Chinese and Taiwanese interests in these matters.
Perhaps you’re confused too. An American trade organization generally protects the industry its charter claims to represent. An American trade organization does not trade one sector of the industry for another; in this case, American manufacturing jobs for installation jobs. SEIA is a trade group that should be an advocate for all of the American solar industry; especially when providing testimony before the United States International Trade Commission in this critical case that will have long-term and far-reaching impacts on the solar industry.
According to your own mission statement: “SEIA is the voice of the solar industry at the federal and state level, advocating for the protection and expansion of the U.S. market for all solar technologies. We represent the entire solar industry; from the small-business owners to the multi-national companies, from the installers on the roof to the engineers in the lab. We build coalitions of solar energy professionals and renewable energy supporters to champion the legislative successes that grow our industry and keep America competitive.”
Your support for China and Taiwan in these matters is a clear conflict with your own stated purpose to “keep America competitive.”
In order to restore balance to the governing body of SEIA, a new president and board needs to be established immediately. SEIA is a powerful Washington, D.C. based national trade organization whose member companies are involved in research, manufacture, distribution, finance, and building of solar projects domestically and abroad, with today, a seemingly greater emphasis on abroad.
Among your many activities, SEIA lobbies Congress for the advancement of the solar power industry, but not necessarily the industry based in this country. Seventy percent of the Board Members who control the organization are employed by Chinese-based manufacturing and affiliated companies and thus most of your lobbying activities are intended to benefit these interests, frequently to the detriment of American manufacturers and installers. This is no surprise given the plans laid out by Wuxi Suntech in The New York Times in 2009.
Although the U.S. solar industry continues to be the most robust and fastest growing in the world, the multiple economic and employment benefits it could generate for our nation are being undermined by the ill-advised activities of SEIA.
SEIA is now a tool used by Chinese companies to try and bankrupt and destroy American solar manufacturing. Your alliance with Chinese manufacturers is responsible for thousands of American workers who have lost their jobs in the past three years due to the closure of solar manufacturing plants in the U.S. at a time when our domestic economy and employment are struggling to recover from the devastating recession.
SEIA needs to be reorganized so that the membership structure includes a greater balance of industry interests while ameliorating the undue influences of the Chinese and Taiwanese manufacturers. The sooner this restructuring is completed, the sooner the U.S. solar industry can get back squarely on its feet and deliver the many promises of economic growth, technological advancement and environmental benefits the industry holds for the future of our country and its people.
We, the undersigned, call for the immediate resignation of Rhone Resch the president and CEO of SEIA, the entire Executive Committee of SEIA and ALL board members whose parent companies are in China. That might clear up some of the confusion.
Resign now: Nat Kreamer, Tom Starrs, Mike Healy, Scott Hennessey, Arno Harris, Tony Clifford, Craig Cornelius, Todd Glass, Steve Trenholm, Kathy Weiss, Polly Shaw, Thomas Koerner, John Smirnow.
Signed,
Jim Petersen, CEO of PetersenDean/Solar4America
Erin Clark, President of PetersenDean/Solar4America
and our 4,600 employees who support American jobs
