It is understood that China is a major producer and consumer of incandescent lamps. my country's lighting electricity consumption accounts for about 13% of the country's electricity consumption. If all 1.4 billion incandescent lamps in use are replaced by energy-saving lamps, 48 billion electricity can be saved every year. kWh is equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 48 million tons, and the potential for energy conservation and emission reduction is huge.
In 2011, the five ministries and commissions of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine jointly issued a document that China will gradually phase out incandescent lamps for general lighting in five stages: November 1, 2011 to September 2012 The 30th is the transitional period. From October 1, 2012, the import and sale of general lighting incandescent lamps of 100 watts and above are prohibited. From October 1, 2014, the import and sale of general lighting incandescent lamps of 60 watts and above are prohibited. October 2015 1 to September 30, 2016 is the mid-term evaluation period. From October 1, 2016, the import and sale of general lighting incandescent lamps of 15 watts and above will be prohibited, or adjustments may be made depending on the mid-term evaluation results.
While the production of incandescent lamps is banned, energy-saving lamps will become the mainstream of the market as an alternative lighting product. According to the "Semiconductor Lighting Energy-saving Industry Plan", the market share of traditional high-efficiency lighting products such as energy-saving lamps will be stable at about 70% by 2015. Moreover, the country's requirements for high-efficiency lighting products are gradually increasing, which can be seen from the release of the "China's Roadmap for Gradually Reducing Mercury Content in Fluorescent Lamps".
In this case, as a third-party professional certification body established by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China and authorized by the National Certification and Accreditation Administration Commission, China Quality Certification Center (CQC) was the first in the world to carry out energy-saving and environmentally friendly lamp certification in 2012. In 2013, the environmental protection certification of double-ended fluorescent lamps was launched, which put forward restrictions on the mercury content of products. In addition, in response to the lack of scientific basis for names such as "eye protection desk lamp" on the market, the China Quality Certification Center has carried out high-performance visual work desk lamp certification.
It is understood that Philips (China) Investment Co., Ltd., Shanghai Yaming Lighting Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Sunshine Lighting Electric Group Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Chenhui Guangbao Technology Co., Ltd., and Suzhou Oppo Lighting Co., Ltd. have obtained the first batch of CQC visual work desk lamps certification. Osram (China) Lighting Co., Ltd., Xiamen Topstar New Technology Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Sunshine Lighting Electric Group Co., Ltd., Zhejiang Chenhui Lighting Co., Ltd., and Opu Lighting Electric (Zhongshan) Co., Ltd. obtained the first batch of double-ended fluorescent lamps environmental protection certification .
