EMC mode long return cycle LED lighting companies facing transition

LED tunnel lamp leading enterprises, general manager of Guangdong Chen Bin company in some distress. Recently, the dragon in China involved in the LED tunnel light tender, always require the use of energy management contract (EMC) mode.

The new model is not only strict requirements on equipment, technology, capital, but also lengthen the payback period of the project income, so that enterprises take more risks.

"The dragon is LED lighting manufacturers, if using EMC mode, it means that the dragon will be from the manufacturer for service providers." He believes that the local government should think about the implementation of the new model and the scope of the new model, otherwise the transformation of the pressure may engage in some real technical strength, experience of the manufacturers.

And Chen Bin is pessimistic side by side, LED lighting enterprises KingSun chairman Li Xuliang is more optimistic, the new model can solve the LED lighting standards, product quality and can not use problems.

Embarrassment of transition services

In April 6th, the State Council approved the development and Reform Commission and other ministries jointly formulated the "on accelerating the implementation of contract energy management to promote the development of energy-saving services industry" (hereinafter referred to as the "opinions"). "Opinions" requirements, to encourage banks and other financial institutions according to the financing needs of energy service companies, innovative credit products, broaden the range of collateral, simplify the application and approval procedures, project financing, factoring and other financial services for the energy service company.

The so-called "contract energy management" is a new model of energy saving service industry. Professional energy-saving technology services company to accept the customer (such business owners) Commission, signed by the energy service contracts with customers, with funds to implement energy-saving projects, to provide customers with the necessary equipment, improve energy-saving technology and capital all in one service to complete the contract, and obtain the benefits to customers through the savings in energy costs.

As the domestic 'Ten City million' is actively promoting, so the local government also hopes EMC mode in the field of LED street lighting bear fruit." Chen Bin pointed out that some of the lack of funds, technical capabilities of the enterprise has long been scrambling to enter the LED street lighting industry, the domestic LED street lamp companies have more than a thousand, some confusion in the market order.

Chen Bin said that the dragon for 6 years LED tunnel lights, energy-saving products currently Bizet around 35%, while some new entrants can claim such 70%. he thinks it can't do that. Let stand him most is that EMC mode is equal to the force in the role change, change from the manufacturer for service providers.

Because, after installing the LED street lights to the owners, the purchase price is to save energy costs for customers through a monthly Bibi into the company account. In the long recovery period, LED street lamp manufacturers are responsible for product maintenance.

"If there are projects around the country, is not at all in the city to build a service team, that was the number of people ah." Chen Bin said.

Perhaps because of this, in Chongqing recently a tunnel lighting project, Liuzhou, Shanghai twice and PHILPS 6 of the bid winning enterprises collective opposition by EMC model. The result of the final compromise is: subsection lighting is not used, the basic lighting.

Chen Bin believes that compared to LED street lights, 24 hours of lighting tunnel lights should be more suitable for EMC mode.

Insiders said that most of the LED lamp manufacturers are reluctant to adopt new models, mainly is "the payback period is too long." at the beginning of this year, many banks are interested in this new EMC mode, but due to cost saving and energy saving measurement standards and other issues, no implementation.
