The
State Council, China's cabinet, recently urged
related government departments to speed up the
application process of an automotive energy-efficiency
label.
According to the Regulation on Energy-Efficiency
Labeling Administration, which was jointly issued
by the National Development and Reform Commission
(NDRC) and the National General Administration
of Quality Supervision and Inspection and Quarantine
(AQSIQ) last year, the label was first made
compulsory for household refrigerators and room
air conditioners.
From developed countries' management experience,
the implementation of an energy-efficiency label
system can facilitate fuel consumption management
and make consumers know more about vehicle oil
consumption levels, operation costs and other
important information.
