This article presents an overview of the EU's international trade in three key product groups: wind turbines, solar panels, and liquid biofuels. In 2024, the United States imported about $1. 8 billion of wind turbines and component parts, mainly from Mexico, France. . Although solar energy use has increased 37-fold and wind energy 6-fold since 2010, they still accounted for only 5% of global energy consumption in 2022. Earlier this week, the department said it was adding wind turbines to a list of products that will face 50% tariffs on the aluminum and steel content.
