Mr. Xu's Electronic business trade blog

Since the outbreak of the global financial crisis, world economic situation worsened, and the chemical industry is also hit hard, many companies feel the unprecedented chill. Out of the quagmire, the majority of business managers to slash expenses, find ways to reduce production and operation costs, grabbed from the purchase of raw materials has become the most direct and most effective means of cost control. This has led many companies to price as the sole criterion for purchase of raw materials, the formation of a special period of “price theory” guiding ideology.

However, low-cost procurement can really play a key role to improve the business status quo? The only cheap, really is the best choice of the corporate response to the crisis? Which requires every business managers to seriously consider the

The bad economic situation, business plan carefully, and strictly control production costs undisputed. But one-sided emphasis on the procurement of raw materials prices and ignore the other elements, not merit use but choose the price, is difficult, said a wise move. Too much emphasis on price rather than to consider the quality, performance, and is bound to give normal production is significantly affected, and may cause the waste of human and material resources. In addition, although the prices are low, but the amount may need to increase the count to the overall cost maybe not worth the candle. Another point, low-priced products reach the environmental protection requirements, but will increase the additional burden.

The prices of raw materials is only an element in every aspect of production and operation, as corporate managers need to take full account of the operation and management of enterprises. If the one-sided emphasis on low-cost procurement, while ignoring the other elements affecting production, probably foolish to pick up the sesame seeds. Select the best point of balance is a reasonable mix of quality and price, must make a choice whether we want to conduct a comprehensive investigation and evaluation of product quality, price, follow-up services to ensure it? The answer should be yes.

When the “price theory” as the only guiding ideology of the choice of raw materials, but also to breed out the dark and corrupt. The only low-cost procurement, and provide an opportunity to give some of there selfish people, they may be hidden in private transactions with the seller of cheap raw materials, from personal gain. This black-box operations, such as not pay sufficient attention to the double loss of production and assets will be brought to the enterprise.

So, the real way out of the chemical enterprise in the face of adversity where it? The author believes that the rational understanding of the economic situation should make the right judgments, to find the most suitable for their own development path. At present, the national expansion of domestic demand, adjust the structure to the way the principles and policies related to chemical companies the opportunity to reverse the decline. Companies only adhere to the fine management and technological innovation to maximize the use of energy-saving new technology, new technologies, new products, to get the stable development of an invincible position.

Companies only make money to survive, to keep the product with high added value will undoubtedly maximize the increase in corporate profits. Improve the quality and capacity of management to enhance the employees’ sense of responsibility and cohesion to overcome temporary difficulties, accumulation potential for further development will have far-reaching significance. In short, the more solutions than problems to reducing cost and increasing path can explore the attempt must not only want to rely on low-cost procurement of raw materials to solve the problem.

With the increase of refined oil prices and seasonal factors bring good disappeared into the domestic LPG market in April and finally the convergence of the rally. The recent falling international crude oil shocks as well as imported liquefied petroleum gas prices down, last weekend, gas prices has fallen sharply, down 5.48 percent a week.

Haikou City, Hainan, Ms. Wang on the 26th the provincial government’s new Port Island gas station to buy liquefied gas, the 14.5 kg bottled LPG prices have dropped to 119 yuan / bottle two weeks ago to buy the bottle also 127 yuan Haikou in many parts of liquefied petroleum gas prices are down. ”

The reporter has learned that recently a number of cities of the country’s LPG retail price has shown a significant fall. 2-123 yuan / bottle (without aspirated fee); Wenzhou, Zhejiang, bottled gas retail price from 125 yuan / bottle dropped to 120 yuan / bottle down the prices of bottled liquefied petroleum gas, such as Quanzhou, Fujian Province on the 24th. Guangdong 21 prefecture-level city average retail price of bottled gas last week was 125.14 yuan, a decline of 0.65%.

According to data monitoring, gas prices in late April, has fallen sharply, the one-day drop of over 100 yuan / ton. The latest data show that the nation’s major refinery price index for April 20th 7127 yuan / ton, April 25, below the seven-word-mark to 6736 yuan / ton, up to 5.48 percent decline in the 7th. Among them, the Southern market is subject to import gas price Zoudie repression, the greater decline in overall slump of 500-600 yuan / ton from last weekend to Thursday.

“Since April, the international crude oil prices began to fall, and recently has been maintained at above $ 118 finishing situation, the international liquefied petroleum gas prices fell again and again, low-cost imports of gas continue to weigh on the domestic gas market, although the rise in the crude oil market, but then return to decline, unable to support the LPG market stabilization or rebound. “the analyst explained.

Poor demand also played a role in fueling. With the warmer weather, the South to enter the growing demand for cold of the north civilian needs, although in high season, but retail at high prices, alternative shocks affect market sentiment continues unabated. Pessimistic state of mind than those of the upstream and downstream, and two, more than three stations to sell fixed complement has no intention of leaving goods, the seller increased pressure, combined with near the end, the refinery then more than to increase promotions to stimulate shipments.

After the financial crisis, the future look like? The new world will evolve? Unipolar, bipolar, multipolar, or Promise? Which countries will be the power after the crisis? Where is the power of the new leadership of the world? Who exactly is the real world peace and development responsibility of leaders? In a time of crisis is not completely past, the world’s eyes slowly began to shift the focus.
Perhaps, the emergence of the financial crisis before people suddenly found that: the rapid rise of China, is becoming an important force to promote world peace and development.

Ho Sai Hung, World Energy Finance Institute executive president of China Finance Research Institute believes that the future of the world financial crisis will form a new world: the first pole as the representative of the United States, Germany, France, Britain the second pole and third pole of China as the representative. Russia, Japan, India, Brazil and other countries will become an important force in the pole outside.

Ho Sai Hung believes that the future condominium world forces have formed the prototype of the great role of the three poles of the world is to play a role in the financial crisis.

Ho Sai Hung, a new world currency towards more and more clear, the next 20 years, the U.S. dollar, the euro, the yuan will become the international reserve currency under the new world financial system.

The U.S. “Business Week” Now, more and more companies hope for the revitalization of results pinned to the Chinese body – some companies in order to bail out, some companies hope to achieve growth performance. The most serious since World War II global suffered an economic recession, China’s economy is still full of energy – demand, capital markets and real estate market boomed. Best embodies China’s economic vitality of the place should be, even in the context of global economic recession, the popular level in Shanghai supermarkets still amazing.

“The Wall Street Journal that a number of countries recognize it or not, the influence of the Chinese economy in the world has been completely transformed. China-US Strategic and Economic Dialogue was held successfully also indirectly enhance the worth of China. Now, more and more people believe that emerging market countries – especially China will become the world’s first get rid of the economic recession.

The Times believes that the world’s ten largest economies, only China is still growing and will soon surpass Japan to become the world’s second largest economy. The United States has always been recognized as a global economic leader in almost three decades, and pursues a policy of non-intervention-style capitalism, but now in Washington to take initiative to interfere in the economy in many fields, seen a crisis in the U.S. loss to chaos. On the contrary, the Chinese demand for raw materials, Australia and Brazil and other countries benefited in the past six months. In many Asian countries the economy depends on export-led, and by doing business with China, are able to revive.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicted that in the three years 2008-2010, China will account for 75 per cent of the global economic growth. World’s desire for the occasion out of the economic haze refers to be able to become a Pathfinder light, as the famous economist Andy Xie said: “Everyone wants to know the same thing: Can China save the world?”

Only a few years ago, no one thought that China will become the world’s economic savior, because China’s economic reliance on manufacturing, so dependent on U.S. demand. But the U.S. economy into a mess, measures to stimulate the economy since the effectiveness is not Akira, plans for a second round of measures; the contrary, China’s economic stimulus measures fast and effective, in stark contrast with the United States.

The strong momentum of economic recovery, the outside world began to make the Group of Eight began to lose their effectiveness should be replaced by “two groups”, namely, the Sino-US dialogue framework. The right to speak of China in the international community is rising, had earlier proposed to replace the dollar as a global reserve currency issue, but also urged the IMF should strengthen supervision of the international market.

The United States, “Newsweek” that today’s financial tsunami, the only able to achieve significant growth in the major economies. On why and Fortune? “Newsweek” that China has been able to the global economic turmoil stand out is because she is the only country to break the routine of economics textbooks. In fact, the Chinese economy did not like the other five major economies, like the rapid deceleration of the main reason lies with liberal economists usually scoff at the national capacity to intervene, such as restrictions on foreign investment in the finance industry, not a comprehensive introduction of foreign innovative and complex investment vehicles, and finally able to avoid this serious financial tsunami.

CLSA economist Rothman said he is optimistic about the prospects of China. Morgan Stanley Asia, the main Xiluo Qi said that in difficult economic times, the system is indeed more effective than other market system.

Known investor George Soros, the international financial turmoil, China’s financial system has not been dragged into the abyss of suffering, but also dominate the world’s largest foreign exchange reserves. So that the Chinese government has more options than most other countries in the monetary policy measures. In the future world economy, the impact of China’s decision almost with U.S. President Obama’s equally strong.

The world has already begun on the “China model” is full of interest. The Chinese model has created a miracle, opened up a unique path of development, declaring the bankruptcy of the superiority of the American model. China’s reform and opening up 30 years made great achievements throughout the world on amazing. From Vietnam to Brazil, from Moscow to Brussels, to the grasslands of Africa from the North American continent, and everywhere is talking about China’s wealthy, amazed the speed of the rise of China, feeling the broad prospects for development in China.

Western media cries, the Western countries after lunch, the moment of small intoxicated, China becomes the world’s third largest economy, and the way so that half of the Chinese people out of poverty “.

Western media admit that its “end of history,” a book made by the well-known American political scientist, in 1989, Mr. Fukuyama in front of the Chinese miracle, “American model is better than the assertion of any model of development” is clearly vulnerable.

Many Western scholars have pointed out, China has not only learn from other countries to develop the process to find an independent path of development, but also provides the way to national strength and prosperity of other countries to emulate.

The German sociologist Mr. Vail policy, pointed out that the Chinese model is even possible to become a more attractive mode than the Western model, and the arrogance of the Western model has time to pause.

Germany, “World Journal” Papers said: China is a world power, it will never kneel! Europe should learn from China’s example.

Yangcheng Evening News reported: Reporter correspondent the Yuezhi Xuan reports: 18, the Quality Supervision Bureau of Guangdong Province announced the six Food & Beverage production processes of the second half of last year, tea, pastries and other special sampling of Tan Chau. 24 batches of tea rare earth exceeded the 6 batches of pastry exceed the standard or beyond the scope of use of food additives, multiple batches of meat products, processed aquatic products of microbial indicators and acid value failure.
Tea: the rare earth content exceeded
According to reports, a sample of 200 batches of tea and found that within 25 batches of substandard quality, of which 24 batches of tea rare earth content does not meet the requirements. The production of tea factory in Shantou Chaonan Hui Xin Hui Xin brand Oolong Tea (Model: 250 g / pack, production date :2011-08-08), the measured value of 8.8, while the standard value of not more than 2.0 exceeded nearly four times. The total REE in the tea is mainly due to rare earth pollution and fertilization of the soil. The experts said that the irrational use of rare earth, will result in excessive residues in tea.
Pastry: excessive food additives
It is understood that this sample of 100 batches of cakes, six batches of intrinsic inferior quality, some of the products exceed the standard or beyond the scope of use of food additives, are lemon yellow, dehydroacetic acid project failed. Pastry to allow the use of dehydroacetic acid, the standard requires no more than 0.5g/kg, but not lemon yellow. The cause of these products failed reason: the blind use of food additives; enterprises to reduce costs, improve food sensory properties and extend the shelf life of excess, or beyond the scope of the use of food additives.
In addition, the checks in three batches of the product sulfur dioxide exceeded. The quality supervision department, the main reason is part of the one-sided pursuit of product appearance and corrosion protection requirements, use of sulfur dioxide production and processing.
Meat: microbiological contamination
In addition, this sample of 100 batches of meat found within four batches of substandard quality, the main problems is the failure of the coliform bacteria, total number of colonies, acid value, and other projects. A sample of 100 batches of processed aquatic products, 19 batches failed, the intrinsic quality of the main problems is the failure of the coliform bacteria, total bacterial count, moisture, volatile basic nitrogen, acid value, salt, aluminum and other items.
According to experts, the total bacterial count, coliforms, the main raw materials used in the production process is not clean, or product in the process of processing, packaging, transportation, storage, sale and pollution, as well as the sterilization process is not completely occurred resulting in microbial contamination.

EU plans to introduce a new environmental regulations this year, China’s petrochemical products will be built to a higher green threshold.

As early as January 2007, the European Commission issued a relevant instruction, specified petrochemical products, phthalates, phthalates content shall not exceed 0.1%. Instruction in three years after the European Chemicals Agency after re-evaluation, plans this year to introduce new regulations to make more stringent restrictions on phthalates, phthalates and their substitutes. Due to the need to conduct rigorous testing, the new regulations will enable our country to EU exports of petrochemical products cost more than a general increase of 5%.

At present, China’s petrochemical products, phthalates, phthalates content not clearly defined. The end of October 2009, the export of our country a German pen shell PVC material of the ball-point pen voluntary recall because the product of PVC material containing 39.6% of the phthalate hexyl do not meet EU regulations requirements. At the same time, Spain Customs refused originating in the Chinese medical device playsets entry, because the product material contains 0.43% of the phthalate Dioctyl and 2% of the phthalate isononyl ester.

“In this case, the major significance of development of new varieties of SEBS (hydrogenation of the SBS) Baling brand SEBS products in the field of medical supplies, progress has been made, pilot performance, structure, transparency and foreign products are close. “Baling Petrochemical Synthetic Rubber Business Unit Manager Zhou Lixin said. As one of the environmentally friendly materials alternative to PVC, SEBS rubber gold “to enjoy its excellent performance. The domestic SEBS into the extremely strict standards of the medical health field, and promising future market.

It is understood that the PVC is China’s most widely used synthetic resin material, PVC plasticizers, phthalates, phthalates are dominant. The plasticizer can not be permanently together with the PVC polymer keys, so the use of plastic products, phthalates, phthalates released carcinogenic to humans. With the global environmental protection have become increasingly demanding environmentally friendly materials is imperative to develop alternative PVC.

Both the characteristics of the plastics and rubber thermoplastic elastomer, known as the “third-generation synthetic rubber, which SBS is a block copolymer of styrene and butadiene, is currently the world’s largest output of the fastest growing an environmentally friendly thermoplastic elastomer material alternative to PVC. The SBS lack of poor anti-aging properties, but its hydrogenation product SEBS does not have this defect, is an excellent performance, wide field of application of new environment-friendly polymer materials.

In 2009, the global SEBS annual consumption of about 180,000 tons, of which domestic consumption is expected to over 26,000 tons, has improved greatly compared with 2008. Professional marketing SEBS products Nanjing Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. of sea-flag business executives, SEBS in full compliance with EU REACH regulations, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration standards, and can replace PVC products, breaking the U.S., EU and other regions of the green barriers.

In recent years, medical supplies increasingly stringent hygiene requirements, the production of material selection has been attached to. Because of SEBS with high transparency, good thermal stability, can be steam and ethylene oxide and ultraviolet disinfection, itself non-toxic and other characteristics of the U.S. and EU certification bodies have been recognized for medical devices (such as one-time infusion tube, blood bags ) and other production, is an ideal green medical materials. In China, still use the traditional soft PVC as main raw material of medical supplies, the market demand for 15 million tons.

Baling Petrochemical is currently the sole owner of the independent intellectual property rights and enterprise scale industrial production of SEBS, with an annual capacity of 20,000 tons. Medical equipment for basic materials of high purity requirements of the Synthetic Rubber Division of Baling Petrochemical through trial and error than to find a variety of removal of SEBS harmful metal ions, both conventional and unconventional methods, a number of key technology breakthrough. In May 2009, Baling Petrochemical produce medical the SEBS small test products used by large domestic medical device company, the indicators can be comparable with similar international products.

The Zibo Kang St elastomer Rubber Technology Co., Ltd. is a well-known manufacturers of medical elastomer material. The company official said: “We have to SEBS used in medical tubing products, orders from abroad all the SEBS material. Domestic selling price of this product is several times higher than ordinary PVC product, only the large first-tier cities hospitals began to use part of the national policy support we can use the the SEBS new products to replace PVC products, the use of SEBS will reach more than 2000 tons.

This indicator of private cars in the 2003 statistical bulletin for the first time, when the national private car ownership at the end of the 4.89 million annual vehicle production of 4.444 million, of which 2.02 million car production.

Technical: high and volatile build top process

Expected that the first low domestic stocks, international main producing areas to stop cutting the lead to reduce the supply, the spot price to go to a record high, limiting the downside with price space, is currently in the vacuum of stop cutting, spot, there are further gains possible. Based on the above factors, we believe that the rubber trend for the year depends primarily on the economic recovery and liquidity tightening of the intensity of the game between the short-term impact of reduced supply may rise further, or high and volatile, expected to Hujiao 1009 contract built in shock top of the process, but the medium-term trend is not optimistic.

Wei Chad, Richard Waycott, CEO of U.S. Chamber of Commerce California Almond habits pipe serving organization called ABC (Almond Board of California). ABC was founded in 1950, the U.S. Department of Agriculture under the non-profit trade association. The almond is just a nut, ABC organization under California almonds operation became a production value of up to $ 3 billion business.

    ABC’s members, covering 100 almond processors (Handlers) and 6000 much almond growers, family farms, of which the large almond processors acquired growers, processing, packaging, transportation, and a series of follow-up sales service .

    Nuts in a large family, with hundreds of categories, the data provided, according to ABC, almonds accounted for 18% -20% of the output of the world tree nuts (true nuts on), is unique in the nuts. More than 75% of the global almond production from California almonds to become the largest export crop in California, and is the nation’s highest value export horticultural products. In fact, the California-grown almond tree varieties up to 30 kinds, each U.S. almond core-shell hardness, the nucleolus shape, color and surface characteristics are different, there are also subtle differences in taste and texture.

    The face of a wide variety of almonds, the Americans only use this brand of “California almonds. ABC’s members understand that the real competition, one from Spain, Australia, Turkey, almond growers; Second, from other nuts, walnuts, hazelnuts, walnuts, pistachios and other ethnic groups, almonds need to continue to expand in the family within the territory.

    ABC Wei Chad under the leadership of the specific implementation of the domestic marketing and international marketing, nutrition and production research, industry data and industry mandatory quality control monitoring activities, the main objective is to improve California almond production in the global market to promote U.S. almonds. The International Committee of its subsidiary, responsible for managing the Chamber of Commerce public relations and advertising budgets of the international market execution, while responsible for the management of the overseas markets of the U.S. Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service to promote the funding for the implementation of the plan.

    Chamber of Commerce in key overseas markets including the European Union, China, India, South Korea and Japan, in China, ABC hired movie stars Gao Yuanyuan as the image ambassador.

    In fact, ABC Industry Association in China is not uncommon, but the association is often weak execution. In addition to external competition forced the members Baotuan, ABC has also adopted various measures to strengthen the binding of these initiatives to ensure the ABC main push almonds in the “nuts” competition to win.

    First, mandatory membership. Although the United States is a democratic country, however, but who in the California business almond growers or processors, must be unconditionally join the Association, there is no room for negotiation, including large agricultural cooperatives such as “Blue Diamond” (data said about accounted for the California almond production 40%) is no exception, must abide by the rules of the industry. In the industry, many of the cultivation, processing, quality standards is mandatory, for example, ABC does not allow growers to adopt GM technology.

    Second, professional management. Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors consists of 10 members, five grower representatives and five representatives of the processors, board members are not wages, the obligation to contribute to the development of the California almond industry, the Board hired a professional management team, and the establishment of various special committees , such as Administration and Finance Committee Reserve Board, the Leadership Development Committee, Food Quality and Safety Committee. Including the CEO, including management team every five years for re-election once, “Everyone will be on five years of work of the CEO vote to pass then dry, but leave off only” Wei Chad has been successfully cross the border twice, after his Cargill (Cargill), one of the four grain merchants for many years.

    Third, the control key vendors, the ACB association the number of processors in recent years has been relatively stable, however, the market concentration has been higher, but market concentration has been very clear, the current ABC maximum of 35 members control about 90 percent of output value can manage 35 processors, the entire California almond quality basic can be guaranteed.

    Fourth, the strict payment of contributions and collection system. This is the key to protection Chamber of Commerce, the normal operation and ongoing marketing, stable and expanding California almond global market share. California almond promotion budget contributions from the ABC’s funding comes from the growers for sale almond annual assessment of the weight, the average fee is three cents per pound, according to Wei Chad, ABC annual dues accounts for about 1% of the output value of industry as a whole, this year’s budget of $ 45 million dollars, which department is for the California almond promotion of the brand.

In recent years, around the “shortage intensified this year comes early to late summer peak has passed, but the electricity shortage is still a long time does not leave people in the industry predicted, the” shortage “in China will become the norm.

According to the department published data, since the second quarter of this year, the Guangdong power shortfall of more than 5 million kilowatts, Shenzhen power shortfall of more than 1 million kilowatts, Guangxi is the plight of the most severe power shortage in the encounter 20 years ago, thousands of businesses were forced to stop production, Sichuan, Chongqing, Guizhou, Yunnan, Hainan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and other southern provinces are the power shortage situation. According to the statistics of the China Southern Power Grid, the maximum peak shifting the load of the Southern Power Grid in August reached 11.2 million kilowatts, even in September and October, the China Southern Power Grid is still the overall lack of electricity for more than 8 percent, individual regional power shortage for more than 20%.

Increasingly serious “shortage” phenomenon with the southern provinces and cities in China, energy-efficient Electrical Equipment & Supplies in this process reveals its important position, limited by the power shortage in the enterprise potential increasing demand for energy-efficient electrical equipment.

As an important driving force of industrial production aspects of the energy efficient motor will effectively improve the energy issues, the experts believe, for the motor industry, the “shortage” will be the opportunity for market growth of energy-saving motors.

A number of advantages

Motor as the power source for fans, pumps, compressors and other equipment, widely used in industry, agriculture, transportation and other fields. According to statistics, the power consumption of the motor in the country’s total electricity consumption accounts for a sizeable proportion of industrial electricity consumption, electricity consumption accounted for about 66%, accounting for about 50 percent of the country’s total electricity consumption. So the industry, industrial energy efficiency must improve the efficient motor start.

According to experts, energy-saving motors with new design ideas, new technology and new materials, to improve output efficiency by reducing the electromagnetic energy, thermal and mechanical energy loss. Compared with standard motors, the use of energy-saving motor energy saving effect is very obvious, under normal circumstances efficiency can be increased by 4%.

First, high efficiency, energy saving. Compared with ordinary motor, the energy-saving motors through the use of quality materials and the optimization design, their design tends to give more consideration to the factors such as the motor iron loss loss, etc., in terms of materials, core materials commonly used silicon steel, while high-performance iron chip insulation coating technology to use one of its energy consumption fell by an average of about 20%.

The longer run, energy-saving effect is more obvious, the higher the product of economic For businesses, you want to obtain the recovery of funds in the fixed capital investment, a shorter useful life, high efficiency motor advantage in this regard is self-evident. According to statistics, a 45 kW motor efficiency by 1 percent, saving nearly 4000 kwh per year, while the energy-saving motors than ordinary motor efficiency increased by about 4%, generally 1 to 3 years to recover the investment of all the updated motor .

Third, long life, high reliability equipment. This is because the energy-saving motors to take a design to reduce losses, the temperature coefficient is small. Prices of energy-saving motors as compared with ordinary motor 15% to 30% more expensive, in general, energy-saving motors is higher than General Motors of investment can be recovered in a shorter useful life, throughout the life cycle, available for businesses to save electricity.

The fourth is to greatly reduce environmental pollution. The information shows that in 1997, the United Kingdom throughout the industry’s total energy consumption of 104,455 to one million kilowatts hours. Among them, only the motor consumption accounted for 65% (about 678 965 million kilowatt-hours). If the motor efficiency can be increased by 2% a year can save 135 million kilowatts hours of electricity, if the calculation of consumption of one kilowatt hour of electricity produces 0.57 kg of carbon dioxide, reduce emissions to the atmosphere 75 million tons a year carbon dioxide.

Worrying situation

According to statistics, over the years the motor power consumption in China accounted for 66 percent of the country’s power consumption, of which about 35% of the power consumption of the small three asynchronous motor is the power-hungry. According to the national small and medium-sized motors Quality Supervision and Inspection Center on a sample survey of 198 domestic key enterprises motor, which reached more than two of the proportion of energy-saving motors only 8%. This is a great waste of resources of the community as a whole.

On the contrary, the status of very low and the proportion of domestic energy-saving motors applications In recent years, the export of domestic small and medium-sized energy-saving motors showing the rapid trend of substantially year after year increments. Exports only $ 327 million from 2000, exports reached $ 1.633 billion in 2006, then 2010 is about the exports of 2.24 billion yuan.

Compared with the the fiery export of energy-saving motors sold on the domestic market of small and medium-sized induction motor is only reached EFF2 efficiency levels in Europe are very few products, energy-saving motors, and enterprises for the production of energy-saving motors less than one percent of Energy-saving motors market share of only about 5%.

In domestic energy-saving motors can only be exported to foreign and domestic products with high power consumption. It can be seen to promote the use of energy-saving motors, China and Europe and the United States and other developed countries there is a big gap. Why the energy-saving motors “wall flower wall red”?

First of all, most domestic enterprises and government agencies, lack of awareness of energy saving and environmental protection in the purchase of the motor in cost as the main factors to select products, energy-saving motors due to the use of raw materials more than the price above the normal motor 15 % to 30%, which resulted in businesses and government agencies tend to buy the ordinary motor.

Second, the importance of energy efficiency do not understand the motor life-cycle cost of the composition and motor, the same cause the motor to buy, there are errors, and only consider the initial cost to buy the motor, rather than on motor life cycle and its subsequent benefits, this concept largely makes energy-saving motors popularity of the road is quite difficult.

The experts pointed out that, to promote wide popularization and application of energy-saving motors in China, but also from a number of ways to proceed, not only necessary for the state’s policy to support the production, sales, procurement, and also the need for national environmental knowledge and education.

Seize the opportunity

The energy-saving motors were praised, has become a major concern. Experts believe that with the increasingly tough energy saving policies, the “12th Five-Year” period, in support of relevant national policies, the promotion and application of energy-saving motors bound to substantive progress.

National Standardization Management Committee in 2006 issued the mandatory standards for small and medium-sized three-phase asynchronous motor energy efficiency of limited value and energy-saving evaluation, since July 1, 2011, the regulations prohibit the sale of three energy-efficiency motor. This mandatory standard indicates that the energy-saving motors will fully replace the traditional inefficient motors.

On July 26 this year, the introduction of the notification of the Ministry of Finance, National Development and Reform Commission to promote the implementation details on the issuance of the energy-saving products that benefit the project “High Efficiency Motors”. “Notice” provisions of primary and secondary energy efficiency rating for the rated power of 0.55 kilowatts (inclusive) to 315 kilowatts (inclusive) of the low-voltage three-phase induction motor, to give 15 to 40 yuan subsidy per kilowatt; on the loss than the current prospective into the standard 20% rated power of 355 kilowatts (inclusive) to 25 000 kilowatts (inclusive) the high-pressure three-phase asynchronous motor, giving a 12 yuan subsidy per kilowatt; the rated power of 0.55 kilowatts (inclusive) to 315 kilowatts (inclusive) permanent magnet motor, giving a subsidy of 40 to 60 yuan per kilowatt; also released the third installment of “energy-saving products that benefit the project” High Efficiency Motors promotion directory, and electrical products have a total of 9896 models of the 34 companies short-listed in that directory.

The industry believes that the next two years, energy-saving motors account for the proportion of new small and medium-sized domestic motor will reach more than 60% of the energy-saving motors market will reach 48 billion to 57.6 billion yuan.

It should be said that the “shortage” in large part burns our economy, but the double promotion of mandatory energy saving measures and support policies, the motor industry is undoubtedly usher in a good opportunity. In order to seize this opportunity, the motor industry must strengthen energy-efficiency technology and innovation, so that the entire energy-saving motors production processes in the development process, the “shortage” really play the role of basic industry, driven by sustained, healthy development.
