The Chinese government has promoted the most efficient lighting

This year, China will issue a timetable for the elimination of incandescent lamps. Although the exact time is still not certain, according to relevant expert associations, the preliminary plan is to completely eliminate over 100W of incandescent lamps by 2015, including all incandescent lamps below 100W in 2018. Exit the Chinese market.

"I think this preliminary timetable is entirely feasible," said Lin Liangqi, general manager of Philips Lighting Greater China, in an exclusive interview with this reporter. "Maybe it will be faster."

Analysts expect that if the timetable for the phase-out of incandescent lamps is determined, it will surely be matched with more efforts to promote energy-saving lamps. In the future, in addition to existing subsidy policies, the promotion of energy-saving lamps instead of incandescent lamps will add a mandatory taxation control policy, such as levying consumption tax on incandescent lamps.

The use of energy-efficient lighting products can greatly reduce energy consumption worldwide and reduce harmful carbon dioxide emissions. Therefore, replacing incandescent lamps with more efficient and energy-saving lighting products has become a global trend. Now, the European Union, Australia, the United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea and other countries have formulated regulations to phase out incandescent lamps.

A few days ago, the relevant person in charge of the National Development and Reform Commission's project office on "phasing out incandescent lamps and accelerating the promotion of energy-saving lamps" revealed that following the announcement of phase-out incandescent lamps in more than 40 countries and regions, China's phase-out plans for incandescent lamps have also been formulated. In an orderly manner, it is expected to be announced in the near future. This means that as the world's largest producer and exporter of incandescent lamps, China will, as planned, bid farewell to traditional incandescent lighting equipment and usher in a new era of energy-saving lighting.

It is foreseeable that a series of subsidy policies and promotion projects will be launched with greater intensity. In fact, in order to improve the elimination of incandescent lamps, as early as 2008, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance began to subsidize the promotion of high-efficiency lighting products, and provided 30% and 50% subsidy for large-scale users and urban and rural residents to purchase energy-saving lamps. In 2009, the National Development and Reform Commission signed projects with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) to “China gradually phase out incandescent lamps and accelerate the promotion of energy-saving lamps” and plans to phase out incandescent lamps within three years.

“In my opinion, the Chinese government's implementation of subsidies for energy-efficient products is the most in place.” Lin Liangqi told this reporter, “Of course, other countries’ governments have also taken some related subsidies, but China is directly driven by financial subsidies. The promotion of efficient and energy-saving lighting is the most neat and straightforward and the simplest and most practicable."

Lin Liangqi commented that the Chinese Government’s financial subsidy for the promotion of high-efficiency and energy-saving lighting has been implemented successfully in the past three years. “Every country has not done so much to do this thing. The Chinese government’s financial subsidy for energy-efficient lighting is the most effective. It's also best performed."

As the global lighting industry leader, Philips Lighting is also working hard to promote the transformation of energy-efficient solutions across the society. Lin Liangqi told reporters that since the introduction of China's policy of subsidizing efficient lighting products, Philips Lighting has won the bid for three consecutive years and has successfully completed its promotion tasks. Through three years of development, coordination, and continuous improvement, Philips Lighting has taken the lead in the industry to form a comprehensive solution that includes R&D, channels, services, and other aspects that are compatible with financial subsidy programs. This is also for Philips. During the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, it has laid a solid foundation for more effective and orderly servicing of related promotion projects.

It is reported that only last year, Philips promoted 9.66 million high-efficiency energy-saving lighting products in the Chinese region. The scope of promotion involved 14 provinces and cities including Yunnan, Shanghai, Henan, Hubei, Guangxi, Jiangsu, Xinjiang, Ningxia and Shaanxi, and the General Logistics Department of the People's Liberation Army. Among them, in 2010, Philips has completed the promotion of products, only with a wider range of applications for households with 5 to 8 watts of energy-saving lamps as an example, is expected to reduce 106,400 tons of carbon dioxide each year, saving 47,289 tons of standard coal and 60,290,000 yuan of funds .

In addition, Philips Lighting has implemented active energy-saving lamp recycling measures in areas where conditions permit. Taking Beijing as an example, Philips has recovered a total of more than 1.5 million lighting source products.

According to Lin Liangqi, Philips will also intensify innovation in the promotion and promotion mode of the existing energy-saving lamps and the recycling of energy-saving lamps. For example, in the recycling model, Philips Lighting will try to further cooperate with distributors, third-party outlets, residential communities, and large user units in the promotion area to expand the radiation surface and better complete the recovery of energy-saving lamps.

Lin Liangqi said that the promotion of energy-efficient lighting products not only benefits the country and the people, but also has important guiding significance for upgrading China's lighting industry structure. With the development of China's economy, consumers are paying more and more attention to the relationship between lighting quality and quality of life in addition to energy conservation. Philips Lighting will actively respond to this change, actively cooperate with the government's various decisions, and provide quality products and services for energy conservation and emission reduction during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period.
