The new LED standard effective September Zhongshan enterprises complain

Insiders said that to achieve the new energy efficiency standards, the production costs of enterprises need to improve 20%-30%, which will bring pressure on business and export. Energy efficiency requirements for the future of China's standard 2.2 times Zhongshan inspection and Quarantine Bureau statistics show that in the first half of 2013, Zhongshan inspection of the export of electric light sources and lamps worth $570 million. The European Union and the United States are still the largest two overseas markets in Zhongshan, accounting for about 42.9 of total exports.

The European Union recently issued the "Regulations" of the new energy efficiency requirements of LED lighting products, since September 1st this year, all exports to Europe LED lighting products must meet the new energy efficiency standards, and is divided into three stages in the next three years to gradually increase the energy efficiency standards of LED lighting products.

This news spread in the industry, many Zhongshan LED lighting products export enterprises complain. Insiders said that to achieve the new energy efficiency standards, the production costs of enterprises need to improve 20%-30%, which will bring pressure on business and export.

Energy efficiency requirements for the future of China's standard 2.2 times Zhongshan inspection and Quarantine Bureau statistics show that in the first half of 2013, Zhongshan inspection of the export of electric light sources and lamps worth $570 million. The European Union and the United States are still the largest two overseas markets in Zhongshan, accounting for about 42.9% of total exports.

According to recently released the "LED lighting products, the latest energy efficiency regulations", the new energy efficiency standards EU1194/2012 directive is for all LED lighting and directional light, specifically divided into three stages: September 1, 2013, September 1, 2014 and September 1, 2016 implementation.

In the three phase of the gradual improvement of LED energy efficiency standards, which in the second phase of 2014, the energy efficiency index is set to be 0.2, is currently China's implementation of the standard of 2.2 times.

Besides, national quality inspection administration official website shows that after the implementation of new standards, such as standard for single product certification and sampling costs shall be increased 10 thousand yuan. "Most of the LED companies in Zhongshan do not meet the EU's new energy efficiency requirements. "Zhongshan semiconductor lighting industry association secretary general Tu Qiaoling said, Zhongshan's LED companies for many small and medium enterprises, there are many in the OEM processing, the core technology in the hands of foreign manufacturers.

The new standard or enterprise cost by 20% over an interview with reporters yesterday, Yu Di Lighting, Dafeng lighting and other Zhongshan LED enterprises responsible person understands, most industry insiders have not heard of the new energy efficiency standards issued by the EU, only responsible for Hengyuan Zhou said the new stream of people from the Internet that has this information.

A LED lighting business in the town of Peng Jiangbo told reporters that he temporarily not received specific provisions of the new energy efficiency standards, but according to past experience, out of new energy efficiency standards, certainly have an impact on the enterprise. However, Peng Jiangbo believes that this is a benign effect, because the high efficiency of the standard means that the higher quality requirements for all consumers are beneficial and harmless.

From the enterprise, this is also a market-oriented role. Peng Jiangbo said it would promote the company to enhance R & D capabilities, production of products in line with European market standards.
