mandatory standards will be introduced
Another month, the first solar water heater industry, a mandatory national standard – \"home energy efficiency of limited value and energy efficiency rating\" standard (hereinafter referred to as \"energy efficiency rating\") will be officially released, \"the current stage in the publicity.\" National Standardization Technical Committee Secretary-General Jia Tieying Solar said, and then came with the standard matching \"domestic solar water heating system energy efficiency labeling rules\" also \"the fastest will be the official end of notification\", and finally by the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Quality Inspection Bureau issued.

China\\ s solar water heater industry is expected to have changed spared from the current situation.
Industry standard introduced soon
Currently how many solar water heater business? No official uniform data to answer this question. China Rural Energy Industry Association Solar thermal Professional Committee Luo Zhentao said, \"there are at least about 3,000, which includes the middle and downstream industry chain, and manufacturing of solar water heater company at least 2000.\" Jia Tieying is that \"the country there are at least 3,000 to 4,000 companies of varying sizes of solar water heater business.\"
In 2010, the relevant department for industry to develop national standards. Luo Zhentao with many experts in the field and solar energy companies are involved.
It is understood that \"energy efficiency rating\" indicator has three levels, a product that energy-efficient. The mandatory standard \"requires certification through the WTO, but with Chinese characteristics, mandatory standards with international standards is not the same, mainly because the water heater industry development status is not the same.\" \"Standard for the industry to the introduction of is a major event, \"Jia Tieying said.
Why is the \"Solar Water Heater\" standard first enacted? Jia Tieying that \"all domestic water heaters, solar water heater market accounts for more than 70%, now is a one solar water heaters are used, especially in the second and third tier cities and rural areas, standards related to specific household livelihood, major projects will have a standard system, the industry prioritized the development of a process. \"
Small workshops will now close down
In Jia Tieying view, the introduction of standards for solar water heater industry, \"a shuffling process,\" \"not up to standard, in this process will certainly be eliminated.\"
Domestic solar water heater brands, \"buy equipment, rent a shed is a company, the brand can not go on, and then change the name, still one to two million a year to earn. The industry needs to avoid non-standard work.\" Honeywell Honeywell (China) Co., Ltd. China Ministry of Environmental Controls Division Sales Director Zhang says.
Zhang Ke believes that \"a solar water heater industry will experience the process of upgrading, the process is coming, and then air-conditioning industry is down, the refrigerator industry development path to take, those industries out of the giant.\"
Zhang Ke that \"energy efficiency rating\" for the introduction of standards is a good solar water heater industry, \"Let their own initiative on quality and brand of solar water heaters, main market in rural areas, and regional characteristics are obvious, other than Barry well-known brand and the brand within three years, consumers will choose? \"Zhang Ke said,\" It\\ s like the cosmetics industry in rural areas, as more consumer brand awareness for relatively weak. \"
Beijing Solatube Solar Energy Technology Co., Ltd., founder of Wang Zhi would say, solar water heater is a low threshold for industry, small artisanal producers spread, \"especially in the area around Beijing and Zhejiang Haining, the birth of new businesses every day, every day also have the old company disappears. There are many products for rural solar water heaters sold only 800 dollars, the quality of these products are bound to have such problems. produce chaos and sales chaos, chaos is the industry most basic after-sale status. \"
After the standard Wang Zhi would think that the main development of the rural market for solar water heater is a small workshop fatal blow, \"especially in the area around Beijing and Haining small workshop.\"
Insiders also said that \"a mandatory standard may not be able to save the industry had a solar water heater industry, there are too many formats, the new standards can play what role, is not that good.\"
