On June 23, 2008, UL teamed up with the National Institute of Standards and Technology to hold a three-day seminar on trade standards for renewable energy and energy-efficient lighting systems in Shanghai. Leaders of the National Development and Reform Commission and the Shanghai Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision, US Department of Energy officials, Dr. Belinda Collins, Director of Technical Services Department of the US National Bureau of Standards, and Mr. Lai Lunhui, Vice President of UL and General Manager of Greater China, delivered keynote speeches. More than 200 representatives of enterprises and academic institutions shared the remarkable achievements of China and the United States in renewable energy projects, and made a useful discussion on the future application prospects of energy-saving lighting systems in China and the global market. Solar lighting is getting closer and closer to people's lives.
This seminar revolves around the three major areas of photovoltaics, distributed generation equipment and solid-state lighting sources, and fully explains the knowledge and standards of renewable energy, ie sustainable development technology. As the world's first third-party testing organization to work on the safety certification of photovoltaic products, UL has cooperated with the National Institute of Standards and Technology to invite technical experts and scholars from a number of authoritative organizations, including leading in the field of photovoltaics and lighting. The company aims to carry out extensive and in-depth education in the industry through this efficient communication platform to actively promote the further development of China's renewable energy industry.
In recent years, in the face of rising oil prices and deteriorating environmental problems, various countries are actively paying attention to the development of renewable energy, and the related industries such as photovoltaic, solar power and lighting have a huge market. It has become the focus of countries in formulating support policies and development plans in recent years. UL is fully aware of the broad prospects of the renewable energy market. As early as 1986, it has launched UL1703, a safety standard for flat panel PV modules, becoming the first third-party certification body in the world to develop standards for photovoltaic products. UL1703 was immediately accepted as a national standard in the United States, and then recognized by the Canadian government. Not only that, but UL also led the preparation of the IEC61730-1&-2 standard for safety and performance, thus determining UL's leading position in the field of photovoltaic certification.
When talking about the export-oriented Chinese PV industry, experts have said that for the products sold in Europe and the United States, there are strict safety and performance requirements, and corresponding standards have been set up, and special certification service agencies are required. Products are tested and certified to standardize the quality of photovoltaic products, which is currently the main challenge facing the Chinese PV industry. In response to this situation, Mr. Ji Liangjun, a UL R&D engineer, proposed that PV standards can play a positive role in the entire cycle of products from R&D, production to market: they can help manufacturers speed up R&D, correctly evaluate different production processes, and improve product quality and Safety, at the same time, manufacturers can also get ahead of the information on the product, and enhance the image and visibility of the product in the market.
At present, UL is the only national certification body in the United States with dual qualifications for issuance and accreditation. It can issue IECEE certificates (CB certificates), which can be accepted by any country participating in the CB system, and can obtain certification marks from different countries. Can greatly shorten the time of global certification. Mr. Lai Lunhui, Vice President of UL and General Manager of Greater China, said: UL has been in the Chinese market for nearly 30 years and has been committed to providing one-stop certification services to its customers. China's renewable energy market is entering a period of rapid development. To meet the growing demand, we will also establish a new photovoltaic laboratory during the year to continuously enhance UL's testing capabilities in the photovoltaic field.
In response to the Chinese market, UL is also committed to promoting China's industrial development by building a variety of communication platforms that share our proven technologies and experience with the industry. Mr. Lai Lunhui added: This forum of cooperation with the National Institute of Standards and Technology is one of the many efforts of UL. We are very happy to discuss China's renewable energy and effective light energy solutions. I hope that a brighter, greener future will come soon.
