Subsidized appliances are expensive

The New Energy Appliance Subsidy for New Energy Appliances was implemented on June 1st. Some home appliance stores in the city have started implementing the New Deal. However, the new subsidy policy has failed to make home appliances sell well. It turns out that the price of home appliances that can enjoy subsidies is relatively high, leaving many people discouraged.

According to reports, the Ministry of Finance, the National Development and Reform Commission, and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued a new round of notification on subsidies for energy efficiency in household appliances on May 28, which stipulates that air-conditioning and color energy efficiency subsidies will be implemented between June 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013. Listed the detailed entry criteria and the amount of subsidies, the maximum amount of subsidy 400 yuan.

On the 5th, the reporter visited some home appliance stores in the city and learned that some stores have begun to implement new policies. In a store on Dongchang Road, the public Mr. Liu heard that there was a subsidy and he planned to buy a counter-type air conditioner. When he turned around in the store, he did not buy it. “The staff said that the air-conditioning subsidy price is ranging from 180 yuan to 400 yuan, and it must be a secondary or energy-efficient air conditioner.” Mr. Liu said that he carefully strolled around, the general level of energy efficiency cabinet air conditioner price of 7,000 yuan To 8,000 yuan, the first-level energy efficiency will require tens of thousands of yuan, and the subsidy will only be 400 yuan, which is far less than the subsidies when the old one is replaced. "In contrast, I still think that spending 5,000 yuan on air-conditioning to buy a bit of power consumption, mainly to enjoy the subsidy of air-conditioning is too expensive, and some air-conditioning although power, but manufacturers also have promotional policies."

“Perhaps the reason that the energy-saving subsidy policy was just beginning to be implemented, the sales of home appliances did not appear to be hot in expectation, but there are not many that can be bought.” A shopping mall guide in the city said that in fact, the process of subsidizing energy-saving appliances, Compared to previous home appliances to the countryside is much simpler, consumers can be deducted directly in the total price when buying appliances, do not use back toss. Although it is simple and easy to obtain subsidies, the price of home appliances that can enjoy subsidies is relatively high, so many people are discouraged.

Not only is the consumer's new policy of energy-saving subsidies for home appliances not a cold, and even home appliance stores have not yet entered the state. The reporter found at a store on Dongchang Road that the TVs that enjoyed energy-saving subsidies in the store did not have any logo, nor did they have similar promotional logos. When asked which appliances can enjoy the subsidy, shopping guides said he had to check the computer.
