EU cancels anti-dumping tariff on energy-saving lamps


1. The European Commission has planned to cancel the 66% anti-dumping tariff imposed on energy-saving light bulbs produced in China in October 2007. Since energy-saving light bulbs imported from China are 20% more energy efficient than conventional light bulbs, the elimination of anti-dumping tariffs on this product will help Europe reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

2. At present, EU member states have adopted the resolution of replacing 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%. According to the World Wide Fund for Nature, energy-saving light bulbs imported from China are 20% more energy efficient than conventional light bulbs. Eliminating anti-dumping tariffs on this product will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

3. China has always been a major exporter of lighting products, and energy-saving lamp production accounts for 80% of the global market share. The EU was once the main overseas market for China's energy-saving light bulb companies, but since the EU imposed a five-year anti-dumping duty on energy-saving light bulbs produced in China in 2001, the number of energy-saving lamps exported to the EU has decreased by more than 70%.
