According to statistics, if all homes in China replace incandescent lamps with energy-saving lamps, then the total energy consumption of household lighting in China will be equivalent to the annual power generation of the Three Gorges Reservoir.
Despite such a good energy-saving effect, the promotion market for energy-saving lamps in our province is a bit “passive.†In addition to the promotion efforts, the price is too expensive and has become a “stumbling block†for promotion. Although more than 80% of residents in new communities have purchased energy-saving lamps, a significant portion of them are “have no choice but to buy in painâ€. In the old community, most of the households that use non-energy-saving incandescent lamps are out of price. The reform is troublesome and does not want to be replaced.
Power saving does not save money citizens have barriers to consumption
Yesterday, the reporter visited Fuzhou Huidoli, the Southern Building Materials Market and many other lighting stores. Most of the lighting counters are equipped with energy-saving lamps. Some non-energy-saving incandescent lamps are placed in the corner. According to several brands, except that some luxury crystal lamps still use incandescent lamps in order to achieve "magnificent" results, they now rarely sell non-energy-saving lamps.
The time has come for the peak season of renovation. There are still a lot of people coming to buy. In a lighting shop in the Huiduli Store, a young man suspected that the price of energy-saving lamps was too expensive. He asked the owner of the store: “The energy-saving lamps are sold for the sake of saving electricity. Why is it more expensive than ordinary lamps? “The owner of the store began to explain, for example, “The energy saving lamp is 5 times brighter than normal, and the 9-watt energy-saving lamp can emit the brightness equivalent to a 50-watt ordinary lamp and has a longer lifespanâ€.
Many businesses say that because most of the containers are energy-saving lamps, about 80% of the owners of the new residential area will be purchased when they are renovating. “But they are all buying with skepticism, and we have to sell while selling.â€
A middle-aged woman who is purchasing lighting said to reporters, “Ordinary lamps cost only 3 yuan each, and a good energy-saving lamp costs 20 yuan. If so much money is lost, who knows that the festival’s energy cannot be effective, and After going back, we must also renovate the old lines and replace the luminaire interface. This is also a considerable expenditure."
According to industry sources, currently there are nearly 100 energy-saving lamp brands on the market in Fuzhou, but the quality is uneven. Some customers have bought cheap, inferior goods and they have been scrapped after a long time. This phenomenon of “saving money without saving money†is also a phenomenon. Caused the public's "consumption psychological barriers."
Green lighting promotion needs over price
The reporter learned from the Provincial Energy Conservation Monitoring Center that at present, the popularity of energy-saving lamps in the new community has increased year by year, but some old communities are not optimistic. The relevant person of the Provincial Department of Construction also believes that although new communities or newly-built public buildings can use energy-saving equipment according to the design standards, the use of energy-saving lamps in old and old office buildings is not high. This is an energy-saving lamp. The bottleneck of future promotion.
At the same time, people in the industry also suggested that the high price of energy-saving lamps is determined by their high costs. When the government promotes green lighting, in addition to sparing no effort to publicize, the government can also uniformly purchase high-quality products and give them to low-income families free of charge, or The production and sales of energy-saving lamps formulate a subsidy policy to reduce their prices. This is not only conducive to the promotion of energy-saving lamps, but also out of the market with poor quality products.
Many businesses also suggested that relevant departments should issue relevant regulations to standardize the quality standards of energy-saving lamps and increase the supervision of manufacturers of energy-saving lamps.
The reporter learned that in the future, our province will strengthen the promotion of green lighting to improve product quality, reduce production costs, enhance independent innovation capabilities, carry out transformation of energy-saving lamp production technology and equipment, adopt market mechanisms such as bulk purchases, quality commitments, and incentives for financial subsidies. Mechanisms to promote efficient lighting products in government agencies, schools, hotels, commercial supermarkets, large industrial and mining enterprises, hospitals, railway stations, urban landscape lighting and urban residential communities. In addition, energy efficiency standards for lighting products will also be refined and market access systems will be established.
