Air conditioning: causes of negative deviation is the lack of penalties

<P> Not long ago, Guangdong Province, Shenzhen, Dongguan, Huizhou, 3 to the Joint Committee on the well-known consumer brands were compared for energy efficiency test. .Results showed that although the 12 products were seized measured levels of energy efficiency in line with the actual nominal level, and in accordance with relevant national standards, but sample testing multiple products in the EER and cooling capacity lower than the nominal value, high input power .in the case of nominal value. .This can not help but make us feel confused: because of the negative deviation of technology can not produce? Or are producers not? </ P> <P> self-identification system since the implementation of energy efficiency, the measured values of energy efficiency does not match with the nominal energy efficiency levels have been all kinds of .energy efficiency products in the soft underbelly of the spot checks. .China's energy efficiency labeling system for use with international standards of corporate self-declaration + record + supervision and management of the model, greatly reducing management costs, reduce the implementation process, to stimulate the majority of enterprises to implement energy efficiency labeling system initiative. .Mechanism is not perfect but in good faith, and supervision and management system is also not a healthy situation, the system also makes some companies there are loopholes. .We are not without regret that in the previous relevant departments of national and local organizations related to sampling, there is often a well-known enterprises board Heibang. .This time, was seized 12 brands of products all of the measured level of energy efficiency in line with the actual nominal level, and in accordance with the requirements of national standards to say that this is an exciting news. .This indicates that the relevant agencies have been constructed since the mechanism for gradual regulatory system and a role. .</ P> <P> but the drawback is that there are 8 samples measured less than the nominal value of the energy efficiency ratio; 8 samples measured input power higher than the nominal value; 4 samples with different cooling capacity of the low level of measured values .the nominal value. .We know that under the conditions specified in the standard, the cooling capacity and cooling input power air conditioning energy efficiency ratio of the decision. .In the case of constant cooling capacity, cooling the lower the input power higher energy efficiency; and in the refrigeration case of constant input power, the higher the EER the higher cooling capacity. .Although these negative deviations were within the scope permitted by national standards, but these deviations information for consumers to buy is actually misleading. .</ P> <P> then a negative bias because of technical problems? Author has doubts. .Because the products tested, there are three sets of energy-efficient inverter air conditioner 3, 2 to 5 sets of fixed speed air conditioning efficiency, with only 4 sets of products of the highest energy efficiency level 1. .Therefore, I do not think that there is no room for improvement of energy efficiency. .</ P> <P> experts had told the author, general business for the export products, performance indicators will tend to do much higher than the contract limit, because once identified performance indicators and contract-related discrepancies, companies will face huge .compensation. .Varies inside, business, or carry her clear of. .But, far as I know, in China, although the "energy saving law" and "energy efficiency labeling management approach" to the punishment of violations of enterprises have clearly defined, production, import, sale does not meet the mandatory energy efficiency standards for energy-using products and equipment .by the product quality supervision department shall order to stop the production, import, sell, confiscate the illegal production, import and sale of energy-using products, equipment and illegal income, illegal income and impose a fine of up to 5 times; if the circumstances are serious, the business .administration to revoke its business license. .But in fact some of the relevant departments, and not strictly in accordance with the laws and regulations to enforce, for the special inspection related to energy efficiency in the failed companies and products, so far there is not even a clear punitive measures. .The energy-efficiency labeling management agencies non-governmental law enforcement agencies, there is no way to punish the relevant companies, test results can only be communicated to the AQSIQ. .</ P> <P> energy efficiency label has been called the people to buy home appliances, "energy balance", but without the appropriate supervision to ensure the correct sight, then the energy balance will be unfair. .The supervision and management is more important is the management, but also the so-called rewards and punishments. .The author believes that the policy in advance of the process, the relevant government departments should play a leading role in the establishment of mechanisms to promote market integrity, and rely on the integrity of the legal mechanism for restricting the effectiveness of play, increase compliance costs and make non-compliance outweigh the benefits. .</ P>.
