Financial subsidies for efficient lighting product promotion start

The National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, the General Administration of Quality Supervision, and the State Council Administration Bureau held an event in Beijing on the theme “Farewell to incandescent lighters and green life” on the 17th in Beijing. Formal implementation of the "China's roadmap for the phase-out of incandescent lamps" and the ban on the import and sale of incandescent lamps of 100 watts or more from this month.

According to Xie Zhenhua, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, China's lighting power consumption accounts for about 13% of the total electricity consumption in the society. If we replace all of the 1.4 billion incandescent lamps in use in China with energy-saving lamps, we can save 48 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity each year, which is equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 48 million tons annually. This has great potential for energy saving and emission reduction.

According to China's gradual elimination of incandescent light road maps, from October 1, 2014, China will ban the import and sale of incandescent lamps with 60 W or more general lighting; from October 1, 2015 to September 30, 2016, the mid-term evaluation period From 1st of October 2016, it is forbidden to import and sell incandescent lamps with 15 W or more of general lighting, or adjust them according to the results of the mid-term evaluation.
