Beijing lamps market gradually replace incandescent lamp

July 26th, the national development and Reform Commission and the United Nations development program, the global environment fund on China's phasing out incandescent lamps, accelerate the promotion of energy-saving lamps project held a signing ceremony. I learned in the Beijing market, the original cheap to sell incandescent bulbs are losing the market in the past, replaced by energy-saving lamps. Supermarket shelves, energy-saving lamps become the protagonist of course, the residents of the family, the incandescent lamp is gradually withdrawn.

Day in Chongwenmen before the counter a layer of supermarket lighting underground new world, I see 20 kinds of lamps on display shelves. Carefully, there are 16 kinds of energy-saving lamps, incandescent lamp is only 5. Despite the dazzling array of goods, supermarket sales staff said that the recent sales of these bulbs are not too good, it may be associated with the promotion of the 1 yuan energy-saving lamps. Sure enough, in the author's stay within 20 minutes, only a woman to buy a price of only $1 for the 32 watt PHILPS annular energy-saving lamp.

Last year, the city of Beijing in the promotion of four yuan of energy-saving lamps, which is a $10 energy-saving lamps, the public can only spend 1 yuan to buy, other subsidies by the government. The event received a warm response from the public. This year there will be 5 areas to promote the 10 million "1 yuan energy-saving lamps".

Some people have had an account, a 10 watt incandescent lamp energy-saving lamps to replace 50 Watt per hour, saving 40 kilowatts, according to the calculation of day lighting 4 hours, only 13 days to save 1 dollars of electricity, a year down the light of a light can give home, 28 yuan.

Today, many families in Beijing have been replaced by a more bright and energy-efficient light bulbs. An interview with an old man said: "are used to energy-saving lamps, no one in the future to make incandescent. "
