Subsidy for energy-saving household appliances and policies benefiting the people.Subsequent“Home appliances to the countryside”AndTrade in old appliances for new onesAfter the policy, from June 1, 2013, consumers will no longer enjoy the central financial subsidy policy when purchasing five types of energy-efficient household appliances, namely, air conditioners, flat screen TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, and water heaters.[1]
Subsidy scope: household appliances above Level II energy consumption, including air conditioners, water heaters, televisions, etc

Subsidy description: cannot be enjoyed at the same time with the implementation of the old for new household appliances and the rural household appliances policy

In fact, the data from the National Development and Reform Commission shows thatEnergy saving product benefit projectA certain subsidy can drive relevant consumption of 400 billion to 500 billion yuan every year, which is an important measure to expand domestic demand. This can be seen from the fact that many stores and appliance manufacturers have used this as a gimmick to try to raise the sales price of related products before the expiration of the preferential policy.At the same time, the market share of energy-efficient products has increased by 10% - 20% to more than 30%, promoting the promotion of green consumption.75 billion hours of electricity can be saved every year to reduce emissionscarbon dioxide75 million tons.
It is understood that in 2009, in order to promote energy-saving air conditioning products and increase the proportion of energy-efficient products in the air conditioning market, the country formulated a public benefit policy of 300-850 yuan of energy efficiency subsidies for air conditioning products with energy efficiency standards of Class II and above. The policy was adjusted to reduce the amount of subsidies to 150-250 yuan and expired in June 2009.

On May 16, 2013, Shen Danyang, spokesman of the Ministry of Commerce, said at a regular press conference,Energy saving subsidies for household appliancesThe policy will expire at the end of this month, and there is no new plan.Industry insiders predict that the expiration of the energy-saving subsidy policy will trigger a rush to buy energy-saving products in the home appliance market, and the "tail raising effect" will be very prominent in the second half of May.[2]
Since June 1, 2012, when the State Council officially launched the policy of benefiting the people, it has greatly promoted the optimization and upgrading of the industrial structure of household appliances, and also brought about a rapid increase in the sales of household appliances enterprises.According to the research data of Zhongyikang, the energy-saving project policy in 2012 drove the promotion of 32.7 million energy-efficient household appliances, and boosted consumer demand by 115.4 billion yuan.
According to the latest industry data, the total sales volume of domestic household appliances market in the first quarter of 2013 was 332.6 billion yuan, up 19.45% year on year.Among them, the retail sales of color TV sets totaled 49.6 billion yuan, up 40.82% year on year, the retail sales of refrigerators totaled 20.2 billion yuan, up 29.51% year on year, the retail sales of washing machines totaled 15.1 billion yuan, up 19.07% year on year, and the retail sales of air conditioners totaled 22.9 billion yuan, up 38.02% year on year.The data set a new record, far exceeding the industry's expectations, and the energy-saving subsidies contributed a lot.
However, some researchers in the household appliance industry pointed out that although the subsidy policy has promoted the sales of household appliances, it has also caused considerable overdraft to the household appliance market to a large extent, which has disrupted the inherent consumption cycle of the household appliance industry to a certain extent.Regardless of whether the energy-saving subsidy has caused overcapacity and other problems in the household appliance industry, the purpose of the national policy subsidy to stimulate domestic demand for household appliances has been achieved, and the energy-saving subsidy will eventually retire.[2]

It is learned from Gome, Dazhong, Yongle and other home appliance stores that home appliance stores have ushered in a buying boom of energy-saving products, and many consumers have expressed their hope to catch the last bus of "energy-saving subsidies" in order to purchase ideal energy-saving appliances at a more favorable price.
It is understood that in order to meet the strong demand of the market,GomeThe countdown marketing campaign of "energy-saving subsidies" will be launched nationwide on May 10. On the basis of the national preferential subsidy policy, the triple subsidy marketing campaign of national subsidies, manufacturer subsidies and Gome subsidies will also be carried out with major manufacturers.For example, the 55 inch full HD LED of Sony Color TV, KDL-55HX750, was originally priced at 11999 yuan. This time, consumers can enjoy the manufacturer's margin of 2000 yuan, Gome's margin of 600 yuan, the national subsidy of 400 yuan, a direct reduction of 3000 yuan, and the energy-saving subsidy of 8999 yuan.In addition, in order to make it convenient for consumers to purchase energy-saving appliances, consumers can also claim part of the taxi fare when receiving energy-saving subsidies if they buy energy-saving products of more than 3000 yuan from Gome.
Four measures to simplify energy saving subsidy process
The withdrawal of energy-saving subsidy policy is bound to lead to a peak sales of energy-saving appliances, and whether it is easy and smooth to receive subsidies has become the most concerned issue for consumers before they buy energy-saving products.
All major home appliance stores have placed energy-saving subsidy processing procedures in obvious places to make it convenient for consumers to the greatest extent.The relevant person in charge of Gome said, "In order to make it easier for consumers to enjoy the triple subsidy, Gome has opened a fast processing channel in its stores, pasted the energy saving subsidy processing process, and provided a fast query system for energy saving products." In addition, Gome has also set up a "hot line for energy saving subsidy consultation", where consumers can consult about energy saving subsidies at any time.
Relevant analysts believe that since the cost of technology application of energy-saving products is often higher than that of ordinary products, it is not ruled out that the product price will rise relatively after the end of the national energy-saving subsidy policy.Therefore, the period before the policy withdrawal is expected to be the peak period for consumers to purchase energy-saving household appliances.
