The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has issued a decision favoring a North Carolina-based solar manufacturer in a patent dispute involving a solar “trunk bus” transmission system. This decision reverses an earlier determination by an administrative law judge that ruled the system infringed upon a patent held by a competing company, Shoals Technologies Group.
The ITC’s decision marks a significant development in the solar power sector, as it clears the unnamed North Carolina company of allegations of patent infringement, which could have impacted its business operations and technology deployment.
