Beijing promotes LED lights for the city’s households for the first time

China News Service, Beijing News, June 4 (Du Yan, Xu Jing) Beijing’s first pilot promotion of LED lights to households in the city, with a promotion volume of about 100,000. Starting today, Beijing will issue a batch of LED lighting coupons (30% discount) through two e-commerce platforms. The light types include LED table lamps, LED flat panel lights, and LED ceiling light sources (household lamp panels). The price of the LED product ranges from a dozen yuan to a few hundred yuan, and citizens can choose according to their own needs.

The new generation of lighting sources is energy-saving and environmentally friendly

Semiconductor lighting (LED) is a new generation of lighting source following compact fluorescent lamps (common energy-saving lamps). It has the characteristics of energy saving, environmental protection, long life, small size, wide application, and rich colors.

According to Qiu Shuai, an expert of the National Semiconductor Lighting Engineering R&D and Industry Alliance, China’s current electricity consumption for lighting accounts for more than 15% of the entire society’s electricity consumption. 5-watt LED lights can replace 40-watt incandescent lamps or 10-watt ordinary energy-saving lamps.

The relevant person in charge of the Beijing Municipal Development and Reform Commission stated that taking a single ordinary household in Beijing as an example, the annual household lighting electricity consumption is about 150 kWh and the electricity cost is about 73 yuan. After all the lamps are replaced by high energy efficient LED lamps, the annual electricity consumption is only about 75 kWh. Reducing carbon dioxide emissions by about 64 kg, which can save nearly half of electricity costs. At the same time, LED lighting luminaires have semiconductor characteristics, which are more convenient for intelligent control, can achieve on-demand lighting, and have more significant energy-saving effects.

The person in charge said that in 2019, a professional organization was commissioned to investigate the behavior of Beijing residents on energy conservation. According to preliminary estimates, the promotion potential of household LED fixtures in Beijing is about 37.5 million. Compared with ordinary energy-saving lamps, it is estimated that the annual energy saving can be about 100,000 tons of standard coal, and the annual carbon dioxide emissions can be reduced by about 310,000 tons, which has a significant effect in promoting energy saving.

Issue a batch of LED lighting coupons

The person in charge said that Beijing is currently vigorously promoting carbon emission reduction and carbon neutrality. Residential energy consumption in Beijing accounts for nearly a quarter of the city's total energy consumption. Among them, lighting energy saving and carbon reduction has great potential, allowing more families to use LED lighting products. Lighting can not only achieve more efficient lighting, save electricity expenses, and promote green consumption, but also an important way for the general public to actively contribute to carbon emission reduction and carbon neutrality. It is also an important part of the capital's citizens to practice a green lifestyle.

LED light bulbs are low-value energy-saving products, and their green consumption promotion methods are different from large energy-saving appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines. The person in charge said that when citizens buy a few energy-saving light bulbs and lamps, the procedures should not be too cumbersome, but also to prevent individual consumers from over-purchasing and hoarding them instead of using them. At this stage, taking into account the requirements of normalized prevention and control of the epidemic, in order to facilitate the purchase of the public, the pilot promotion amount is about 100,000 LED ls, including LED table lamps, LED panel lamps, and LED ceiling light sources (household lamp panel light panels) four types of lamps, with product prices ranging from a dozen yuan to a few hundred yuan. A batch of LED lighting coupons (30% off coupons) will be issued through two e-commerce platforms like Suning.com and JD.com, with the highest subsidy. 150 yuan, first come, first served, until the end of the claim, citizens can choose according to their own needs.

According to reports, this LED promotion pilot set up a user commitment link online, that is, when consumers receive coupons, they read the unique commitment instructions of "each consumer is limited to receive coupons on one platform", and then receive coupons online and online Shop to achieve a one-stop contactless consumer experience throughout the entire process.

In order to prevent the same user from receiving consumer coupons on multiple platforms or multiple times, the Beijing Development and Reform Commission entrusted relevant agencies to periodically check the unique information of the data on each e-commerce platform through the background, and promptly remind and inform consumers who violate the regulations. Return the multi-claimed consumer vouchers.

Both e-commerce companies implemented zero-threshold free shipping service in this LED lamp home promotion event.

The person in charge said that this event is one of the practical activities of "I do practical things for the masses". In the follow-up, we will continue to summarize experience based on the pilot situation, enrich the types of LED light products, and continue to promote it to households in the city during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. Let LED lighting gradually become a new bright spot in the creation of Beijing's green homes.
