Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the
workers in such workers' firm have become totally or
partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated;
(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers'
firm to a foreign country in the production of
articles or supply of services like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by the
workers' firm; OR
(II) there has been an acquisition from a
foreign country by the workers' firm of
articles/services that are like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers' firm; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have contributed
importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on September 10, 2013, by workers on behalf of workers of
Power One Renewable Energy, Renewable Energy Division, a
subsidiary of Power One, Inc., Phoenix, Arizona (Power One
Renewable Energy). The subject workers are engaged in employment
related to the production of solar and wind inverters. The
worker groups are not separately identifiable by article
produced.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in Power One Renewable
Energy have become totally or partially separated, or are
threatened to become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has acquired from a foreign country the production of
articles like or directly competitive with the solar and wind
inverters produced by the workers, which contributed importantly
to worker group separations at Power One Renewable Energy,
Renewable Energy Division, Phoenix, Arizona.



Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Power One Renewable
Energy, Renewable Energy Division, a subsidiary of Power One,
Inc., Phoenix, Arizona, who are/were engaged in employment
related to the production of solar and wind inverters, meet the
worker group certification criteria under Section 222(a) of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance with Section 223 of the
Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the following certification:
"All workers of Power One Renewable Energy, Renewable
Energy Division, a subsidiary of Power One, Inc., Phoenix,
Arizona, who became totally or partially separated from
employment on or after September 5, 2012, through two years
from the date of certification, and all workers in the
group threatened with total or partial separation from
employment on date of certification through two years from
the date of certification, are eligible to apply for
adjustment assistance under Chapter 2 of Title II of the
Trade Act of 1974, as amended."
