The use of solar electricity is going to explode fast, but if it is produced using components by firms in China exploiting slave labour, Britain should outlaw all imports of such components, unless they can be openly demonstrated to be ethically manufactured.

A recent Guardian report has shown that nearly all Chinese produced solar panel components are produced in Xinjiang province, where the Uighurs are being systematically enslaved.

"Solar projects commissioned by the Ministry of Defence, the government’s Coal Authority, United Utilities and some of the UK’s biggest renewable energy developers are using panels made by Chinese solar companies accused of exploiting forced labour camps in Xinjiang province, a Guardian investigation has found.

Confidential industry data suggests that up to 40% of the UK’s solar farms were built using panels manufactured by China’s biggest solar panel companies, including Jinko Solar, JA Solar and Trina Solar.

These firms have been named in a recent report on the internment of more than 1 million men and women from the Muslim Uyghur community, in what UK MPs on Thursday voted to describe as genocide."
