Implementation of energy efficiency rating of solar water heaters will soon be still controversial
And home appliances products, the industry\\ s energy efficiency rating of solar water heater has been the existence of different views. There was a call as soon as possible, was not impressed, and even said that energy efficiency rating \"useless.\"
Reporters found that \"energy efficiency of domestic s and energy efficiency level limit value\" has come to declare stage, this debate is still very intense.
Industry experts point out that there are different views on the standards is a good thing, to a certain extent, in terms of the industry will play a role in promoting healthy development. The relevant authorities should listen to the sounds, and co-ordination. This is the standard implementation of the greatest significance.
Pros: help upgrading the energy efficiency rating
For the most important areas of s – one of the enterprises in Shandong Province, the energy efficiency rating standard is to promote industrial upgrading of necessity. New Energy Co., Ltd. Shandong Power Norit Reaffirming that the civilizational, general manager, said the implementation of energy-efficiency labeling for the solar industry has undoubtedly established a rule, can further regulate the market, and promote orderly competition in the solar industry; For consumers, the choice of products with a clear frame of reference, which will help promote the solar industry to further enhance the overall level. In Europe, energy efficiency label has become a substantial technical barriers, China is a solar water heater manufacturing and exporting countries, to enable energy-efficiency labeling of products to enhance the development of solar technology level, the overall quality, and expansion of exports and so has a positive role in promoting.
Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd. Shandong Ford Division product manager Wang Dehua, also holds the same view, he believes that once the energy-efficiency labeling of approved national standard policy really down, will enhance the brand awareness of consumers play an active role. Because consumers do not understand the case of solar energy products, only preferred brands, guaranteed not to buy the wrong things. Then the energy efficiency label will serve as the national standard identified the most intuitive, value-added products and brands to enhance the degree of product play a positive role in promoting sales.
In addition, some companies argued that the implementation of energy efficiency level will be the development of enterprises play a crucial role. American and Solar Energy Industry Co., Zhejiang official said, energy efficiency labeling does not necessarily lead the industry to enforce the final shuffle, but to get some energy-efficiency labeling certification of enterprises, promotion of energy-efficiency labeling can quickly dominate the market, get some market share. To be sure, solar water heaters, energy-efficiency labeling will eliminate part of the implementation of energy efficiency products with low levels. Temple officials said solar energy, energy efficiency labeling serve two purposes, both to promote the industry technology standards, but also for companies to secure some of the policies or subsidies, paving the way.
Cons: meaningful and will increase the cost
Although the implementation of energy efficiency rating standards will have a major impact on the industry status quo, but some business representatives believe that the product characteristics and the solar water heater industry status does not apply to this standard.
Anhui Wang, CEO of Eagle call say so, energy efficiency label is in imitation of the appliance industry, meaning not great. Solar energy itself is the product, the original intention to establish energy-efficiency labeling may accelerate the development of the industry, but does not exclude some special consideration. First, the ratio of solar energy efficiency does not have a unified conclusion, how to identify a problem, so the logo can contribute to energy efficiency is unlikely. Second, China has a distinct regional differences, and a solar on the Northeast, Tibet, and Anhui three places, the temperature difference determines the performance of solar energy, so the energy efficiency label should consider how the uniform is a problem. Finally, another point of view, energy efficiency labeling in air conditioners, refrigerators and other household appliances industry, the role is not large, the current consumer awareness of energy efficiency is still very low, it still dominates the consumer price.
Beijing Golden Sun Sang Po, general manager of New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. Li Zhang believes that management should give more consideration to how to improve the technology content of , not to turn the focus on energy efficiency, thermal efficiency and other concepts. He said the national research institutes and other institutions should be joint ventures, to the flourishing of solar engineering solutions introduce some criteria. For example, building integrated product specifications, pressure system, the system overheating and other issues to be introduced norms. The establishment of urban architecture evaluation criteria is the answer.
Solar Energy Co., Ltd. Shandong Lok Sang responsible person that the final draft for approval long after the experts argued, however, the smooth implementation of the final, this is hard to say, after all, its mixed industry, especially the \"corporate self- location \"in this way likely to cause data distortion.
Other practitioners said that standards are too general, and not linked to actual production, giving a feeling of not practical. Many solar water heaters in the current technology, components, standards-based water projects did not develop and improve the situation, the rush to promote solar energy efficiency standards, a bit too hasty.
In addition, some business representatives believe that the implementation of solar water heater energy efficiency label is bound to increase the product cost, for those who have reached the standard of products, as long as the subsidy can be identified, but for those who do not meet the standards of the companies need to replace the parts, This cost is bound to surge, a heavy burden to the enterprise, resulting in a number of small and medium enterprises products prices.
