According to Chen Yansheng, chairman of the China Lighting Association, the EU will decide whether to cancel the anti-dumping tariffs on energy-saving lamps imported from China. The industry believes that the promotion and implementation of the EU's "energy saving plan" and the tremendous pressure from the international community are likely to become the driving force for the anti-dumping tariff thawing of China's energy-saving lamps.
Zhu Mengyu, head of the European market of Zhejiang Sunshine Group Co., Ltd., said that the EU Trade Commission will meet this week to discuss whether to cancel the punitive tariff proposal for importing energy-saving lamps from China. In early July, she received an email from the EU Trade Commission. The EU said it will conduct a "sunset review" of China's energy-saving lamps. It is understood that this "sunset review" that should have been held in May has been delayed. Previously, since July 2001, energy-saving lamps exported by Chinese companies to the European Union were ruled anti-dumping, with a tax rate between 0 and 66.1%. In March of this year, the EU passed an energy-saving plan - in the next two years, member states will gradually replace high-energy old-fashioned incandescent bulbs with energy-saving fluorescent lamps. The industry believes that the launch of this plan may become the driving force for the EU to resolve the anti-dumping tax on China's energy-saving lamps.
China's energy-saving lamp production capacity accounts for 80% of the global share. In 2001, in addition to the exemption of a Chinese company, the EU imposed anti-dumping duties ranging from 0 to 59.6% on eight energy-saving lamp exporters in China, and all Chinese companies outside the eight were subject to an anti-dumping duty of 66.1%. The anti-dumping time limit is from July 2001 to July 2006. According to industry insiders, after the sanctions were imposed, due to different corporate tax rates, some factories with lower tax rates continued to export after negotiating a reasonable price with local traders. Compared with 2000, many domestic enterprises exported energy-saving lamps to the EU. After the sanctions were issued, the export enterprises and exports were significantly reduced. Some enterprises can only export to the EU market by issuing OEMs to foreign companies. More enterprises In the face of 66.1% of the high anti-dumping tax rate is discouraged, had to reluctantly give up the EU market cake.
Since 2001, Changzhou Hongri Electric Appliance Co., Ltd. has stopped exporting energy-saving lamps to the EU. Its main market has turned to South Africa, Iran and other African and Middle Eastern countries. Just as EU anti-dumping was nearing its expiration, in July last year, OSRAM and GE again accused China of dumping energy-saving lamps. To this end, the EU launched a 15-month independent investigation of energy-saving lamps in China. The anti-dumping duties that should have ended in five years have been extended again. With the changes in the global climate, the energy conservation and environmental protection situation is becoming increasingly severe. In March of this year, EU leaders adopted a wide-ranging energy conservation and environmental protection plan at the spring summit in Brussels. According to this plan, in the next two years, European countries will gradually replace the old-fashioned incandescent bulbs with high energy consumption with energy-saving fluorescent lamps. According to estimates by the European Commission, if all households in the EU change incandescent lamps into energy-saving lamps, they can reduce household lighting by 60%.
At the same time, the world-renowned nature conservation organization, WWF, also urged the EU to lift anti-dumping duties imposed on energy-saving lamps exported by Asian developing countries to the European market. To this end, the EU should re-examine its ongoing trade protection policies against China and other developing countries to ensure the long-term interests of the EU. However, under the high pressure of EU anti-dumping duties, the price of energy-saving lamps exported by China to the EU market rose sharply by 66%. At the same time, data provided by Philips to the EU shows that in the past five years, due to anti-dumping investigations in China's energy-saving lamp industry, the price of energy-saving lamps in the EU has increased by 25%. The rise in the price of energy-saving lamps in the EU is directly passed on to consumers. Obviously, this is not conducive to the implementation of the EU energy conservation plan.
The industry believes that it is not impossible for the EU to release the anti-dumping of China's energy-saving lamps for the implementation of energy-saving plans. This is undoubtedly a major positive for Chinese energy-saving lamp manufacturers. Zhang Xiaofeng, head of foreign trade of Shanghai Weinan Lighting Appliance Co., Ltd., revealed that they had given up the European market for many years because of the high anti-dumping duties imposed by the EU. If this anti-dumping duty can be terminated, they will immediately devote themselves to expanding the European market. “We are always preparing to wait for the EU market to let go.†The relevant person in charge of Topstar said that the technology, design and production equipment of Topstar The suppliers are all implemented according to the new EU directives. More than 2/3 of the production capacity can be produced by the new EU standards. After the EU market is liberalized, the global layout of Topstar will change and the EU market will increase to 30%. about.
If the EU tax rate is cancelled, the importer will undoubtedly increase the amount of purchases in China. Like other "Made in China" products, the price advantage of domestic energy-saving lamps is obvious. It can be said that the dawn of the revival of China's energy-saving lamps has already appeared, but it is necessary to remind enterprises that after the anti-dumping tempering, domestic lighting companies should win the competition with brand and quality in the competition of globalization. Not a guerrilla war.
