The fifth batch of energy consumption standards introduced: low-efficiency appliances will be banned


The National Development and Reform Commission, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration jointly issued the "Product Catalogue of the People's Republic of China for the Implementation of Energy Efficiency Labeling (Fifth Batch)" and related product implementation rules. It is stipulated that since March 1, 2010, relevant products produced, sold and imported in mainland China must be coated with energy efficiency labels. Relevant products with energy efficiency level 5 (or level 3) are not allowed to be produced or sold in mainland China. And imports.

The further enhancement and management of the energy conservation and emission reduction policies by the Chinese government will completely lose the market for low-energy products.

Energy efficiency standards are getting stricter

Since 2004, China has officially stipulated the energy efficiency labeling system and adopted the implementation model of “enterprise self-declaration + filing + social supervision”, which has achieved initial results.

It is understood that the energy efficiency label refers to an information label attached to the smallest package of the product or product, which is used to indicate the energy efficiency level, energy consumption and other indicators of the energy-using product, and provides the necessary information to the consumer for the consumer. When purchasing products, consider energy efficiency along with product price, reliability, convenience, and other features to help consumers choose more energy efficient products. The use of energy efficiency labels is conducive to guiding social consumption behavior, promoting the sales of energy-saving products, and promoting enterprises to accelerate the research and development of energy-efficient products.

The industry believes that the implementation of energy efficiency label management is an important measure for government energy conservation management under market economy conditions; it is an effective way to use market mechanisms to promote enterprise energy conservation technology progress and continuously improve product energy efficiency levels, and to regulate product markets and create fair markets. Urgent demand for the environment; at the same time, it is an objective requirement to improve the quality and market competitiveness of China's energy-using products, actively respond to green trade barriers, improve energy efficiency of energy-consuming equipment, raise consumers' awareness of energy conservation, accelerate the construction of energy-saving society, and alleviate comprehensiveness. The contradiction of energy constraints faced by building a well-off society is of great significance.

For the first time in this announcement, the revision of the implementation rules for energy efficiency labels for implemented products was involved. As the first batch of products that implement energy efficiency labeling, household refrigerators have been implemented for more than four years, and the energy efficiency level of products has been significantly improved. The energy efficiency standards of products have also been upgraded and revised. Considering that the energy efficiency standard is an important technical basis for the implementation of the energy efficiency label, the “Rules for the Implementation of Energy Efficiency Labeling for Household Refrigerators” has also been revised.

The publication of this catalogue continues to expand the implementation of the energy efficiency labeling system in the field of household appliances and industrial products, and once again expands the scope of product implementation of energy efficiency labeling, especially in the field of industrial products, the small and medium-sized three-phase asynchronous motor products previously implemented. Based on the expansion of AC contactors and volumetric air compressor products. So far, China has issued five batches of energy efficiency labeling product catalogues and implementation rules, a total of 19 categories of products, involving household appliances, air conditioning and refrigeration equipment, industrial products, lighting equipment and office equipment in the field of energy-using products.

Low-energy appliances lose market

In terms of energy efficiency standards, home energy efficiency has attracted attention from all walks of life, and low-efficiency home appliances have gradually lost market in China.

After more than ten years of development, China's home appliance industry has become the manufacturing base of global home appliance production from introduction, digestion, absorption and re-creation, but it has not been a world powerhouse. The reason is that our energy-saving technology is still relatively low, and the market share of energy-saving products is still relatively low.

According to statistics, the energy consumption per unit of China's products is 25%-90% higher than that of developed countries. From another perspective, the lack of energy and high consumption also provide a huge market development space for China's energy-saving industry. According to the survey, as many as 84.11% of consumers pay special attention to whether the products are energy-saving when purchasing home appliances, which makes the overall consumption of home appliances in China upgrade, and the home appliance giants benefit.

In view of the hot product technology currently on the market, air conditioners are more energy-efficient and more efficient due to the use of DC inverter technology; refrigerator energy-saving technologies mainly include high-efficiency compressor technology and frequency conversion technology; and more water-saving drum type washing machines. These products developed with energy-saving technologies are the mainstream of the present and the future.

In this regard, home appliance expert Lu Renbo believes that home appliance enterprises must increase investment in energy-saving technology and make breakthroughs in technology to produce more advanced and energy-saving products.

Since the establishment of energy efficiency standards in 2004, China's household electrical appliances have achieved remarkable energy efficiency. Since the implementation of the energy efficiency labeling system for more than four years, it has achieved good economic and social benefits in terms of energy conservation, energy-saving technology innovation, and cultivation of energy-saving consumption habits. According to statistics, the implementation of energy efficiency labeling has saved more than 90 billion kWh of electricity for more than four years, equivalent to more than 30 million tons of standard coal, which has achieved remarkable effects on the goal of energy saving and consumption reduction of the 11th Five-Year Plan. At the same time, the public has also been educated, and the energy efficiency label has gradually gained popularity.

Low-energy appliances have gradually lost market. In the past, some companies still produce low-efficiency appliances, such as low-efficiency appliances that are still sold to foreign markets. However, with the global energy consumption issue being highly valued, the United States and other countries have gradually begun to put an end to the entry and use of low-efficiency home appliances, which has also made low-efficiency home appliances lose their competitiveness internationally and are gradually eliminated by the market.

At present, the energy efficiency labeling system has become an extremely important government energy conservation management measure in China. At present, preliminary research and preparation work has been carried out on the implementation of the energy efficiency labeling system for flat-panel TVs, set-top boxes, computers, printers, microwave ovens, refrigeration display cabinets, power transformers, etc., and plans to release them in the second half of 2010. The long-term goal is to cover more than 40 energy-using products in order to achieve better economic and social benefits.

Wall Sconce

Wall sconce is a lighting fixture installed on a wall, usually made of metal, glass, or plastic. They can provide direct or indirect light, used to illuminate a room, hallway, foyer or other indoor space. Wall sconces are typically mounted on walls and can be used in conjunction with ceiling lights or table lamps to provide more lighting options and visual layering. They can also be used for decorative purposes as they come in various shapes, colors, and design styles to match different interior decor styles.
