Spain's newly refurbished building shall be fitted with solar panels

Spanish Environment Minister Cristina Narbona 13, said that the Spanish introduced the building of new standards, regulations in the future for all newly built domestic buildings and renovation of buildings have solar panels must be installed in order to promote energy PCGA-BP2T efficiency.

Narbona day seminar was held, said the current construction standards, Spain began the last century, 70 years, in the lack of energy efficiency improvements, has been lagging behind international standards.

Narbona, said: "We have to make up for lost time." The new standard will be formally implemented in March of next year, but energy-saving measures were implemented September 29.

Under the new standards require that all newly built and refurbished buildings have to be to install solar panels. According to the building where the different regions and water, household requirements of 30% to 70% of the hot water through solar energy to obtain.

Spain's Ministry of Environment and Housing Ministry in a statement jointly PCGA-BP2V issued "The new standard for building energy efficiency of each block 30% to 40%, while reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 40-55 percent."

Housing Minister Maria Antonio Aoteluxi Choi said that after the implementation of the new standards, construction costs may increase by 1%, but can be offset by savings in energy costs.

South Korea, like thin battery developed by PMP pattern of new technologies

Relative to other parts of the rapid development, PMP has long been part of the battery remained at the stage of lithium batteries. Really, now the capacity is not a problem, the screen is not a problem, the volume is not a problem, the only problematic seems to be how to increase the remaining PCGA-BP71 battery life, as well as how to reduce the volume of fat to the next. However, Korean companies Rocket has announced that they had developed a "paper battery" - Of course, this battery is unlikely to be done on paper, most likely refers to the volume, thin. Which for the PMP industry is good news, because it, like MP3 for the manufacture of the same small volume of MP4 swept away the barriers.

This technology shows that we can see, the above indicate the thickness of this battery is only 600μm, which is 0.6mm, really, as a paper-thin.

Hundreds of free enterprise by Ningbo Ningbo battery export quota will be subject to the impact of it

Yesterday, the Commerce Department announced a 2007 U.S. or lose the first results of EU textile distribution program, the city has more than 120 textiles import and export business free access to export quotas for next year, wool suits and suit and a few other categories of fat ThinkPad R61 Battery harvesting.

According to the notice issued by the Ministry of Commerce, the United States and Europe in 2007 lost the first performance of the distribution of textile product categories, including 14 categories of textiles and four categories of US-bound lose EU textile. Ningbo enterprises have outstanding export performance, to take advantage of this distribution. If exports to the U.S. 200/301 Class (cotton yarn, sewing thread and combed cotton yarn), business part of the quota system to Ningbo up more than 200 million kilograms, accounting for nearly half of the country; exports to the U.S. 443 Class (wool suits and suit) ThinkPad R61e Battery, Jacoby Er Import and Export, love Ibero-American suits, Shanshan Dadong clothing, Romon Group, etc. assigned to 11.5 thousand sets, accounting for more than one-seventh of the country. In addition, exports to the EU sheets, sweaters and other categories of exports to the U.S. export quotas are also frequently patronize Ningbo enterprises.

Customs statistics show that in the first nine months, total exports of textile and garment city 4.71 billion U.S. dollars, of which the United States, the EU is the main export markets.

Recently, the EU's "Official Gazette" published the new ThinkPad R61i Battery and battery directive (2006/66/EC), demand from 2008 onwards mandatory recycling of used batteries, and announced the implementation of repeal in 1991 of battery Directive (91/157/EC). City Foreign Trade Bureau of the persons concerned that the new EU environmental directives will have a huge impact on exports of Ningbo, battery, battery city enterprises should promptly follow-up study, improve production standards, deal with them.

EU regulations, member states are required to September 26, 2008 will be the new directive into national law. Compared to the old directive applies only to contain a number of mercury, cadmium and lead batteries, the new directive will be covered by all the batteries sold on the market, while increasing the responsibility of manufacturers and product labeling requirements. The new instructions to the market all have spent batteries and accumulators must be recovered, by September 26, 2012, has spent portable ThinkPad T61 Battery to be up to 25% of the total recovery, September 26, 2016 45% . The new directive also provides for battery manufacturers (including the batteries sold in the member countries each manufacturer) must bear the recovery and disposal fees. If the built-in electrical or electronic products have batteries, the manufacturer is also seen as the battery manufacturer. Instructions stressed that the battery manufacturers are required to sell the battery registration of EU member states.

For the European Union on the local market to sell ThinkPad T61p Battery, the new directive restricting the use of mercury and cadmium (alarm systems, medical equipment and cordless power tools battery products for the exemption) and the introduction of three kinds of labeling requirements: chemical symbol hg, pb, or cd, Recycle Bin Label and capacity label.

City Foreign Trade Bureau that the EU require manufacturers to force the recovery of batteries, which the city almost all the batteries will have an impact on exports. In addition, the battery manufacturers to control the content of cadmium and lead in difficult, especially export-oriented small and medium-scale ordinary dry battery business, make product compliance would have to choose new materials or technology development, which will be a not small costs.

Ningbo is the national important production base of the ThinkPad X61s Battery, the battery manufacturers have hundred. From January to September this year, the city exports to the EU Battery 57.43 million U.S. dollars, an increase of 64.6%.

The first 10 months of Europe and the United States trade Junchao 200 billion U.S. dollars

According to Customs statistics, this year China's imports and exports to major trading partners to maintain growth in the first 10 months of the European Union, the United States trade are more than 200 billion U.S. dollars.

According to customs statistics, 1-October, the European Union to continue China's largest trading partner, China-EU bilateral trade value of 218.9 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 24.2%. The United States as China's second largest trading partner PCGA-BP1N, Sino-US bilateral trade value of 214.52 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 24.6%. Japan's third largest trading partner, Sino-Japanese bilateral trade value of 168.46 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 12.5%.

Shanghai market, the scarcity of lead ingots pressure surge downstream firms

Recent domestic lead prices going through several "Shangcuanxiatiao" after, reaching a record high. Lead Ingot Shanghai market is from the July, we've been in a state of supply, shortages in serious condition. At present, the Shanghai market has been hard to find a lead, to lead the production and operation of upstream and downstream enterprises is a big impact. In order to improve this situation PCGA-BP2E, the Shanghai Nonferrous Metals net called the main flow of lead in the Shanghai market traders, factories and mines, and held a forum-user enterprises.

Participating companies agreed that the fundamentals are in short supply lead ingot lead price rise major driving force. International markets, tight supply of lead ingots to make LME Lead prices from July has remained strong since the rise since then it has gained more than 600 U.S. dollars. While the domestic prices of lead ingots outside the plate the first phase of LME lead prices sharply higher amid a relatively stable trend, making substantial increase in export profits of lead, a number of manufacturers, suppliers, lead to increase export volumes, led to reduced supply. Of enterprises as part of the original signed a long single export, the domestic lead supply even more intense.

Domestic consumption of refined lead strong ability to lead ingots in short supply. Shanghai Nonferrous Smelting flywheel director Guxiu Feng pointed out that in recent years, Chinese electric bikes is growing faster than the surprise of the people expected, and also led to a major with the lead industry - the rapid growth of production of lead-acid battery, aggravated the tense of lead supply and demand fundamentals. A major domestic producers of lead, said the plant still has received payment of the value of 20 million of lead ingots, has not yet delivered. Lead Ingot supply the domestic level can be seen in general.

Domestic lead ingots mainly from Guangxi, Yunnan, Hunan and other places of the three major domestic sales market lead ingots - Guangdong, Fujian, Shanghai, Shanghai lead ingots from as far as the major manufacturers, leading to the area of transport "congenitally deficient ", especially when the tension in railway transportation, transportation has become a major problem, if replaced by road transport, freight costs in turn will enhance. Lead ingot prices in Shanghai and Guangdong, the price of lead ingots or less the same case, because shipping a 200 cheaper than in Shanghai, Guangdong, the same prices PCGA-BP2EA, shipped to Guangdong, Fujian, and the profit is obviously higher than Shanghai. Therefore, lead ingots in the present tight supply situation, lead ingots first meet the transportation more convenient and more lucrative areas such as Guangdong, resulting in Shanghai lead ingots to the volume of small, tight supply.

Output ranked the first three of the country's three brands lead - Henan light, SKS, the torch in the Shanghai market hard to find a trace of a good illustration of this situation. "If we sell lead ingots shipped to Shanghai, 200 yuan per ton to discount. Moreover, the current lead ingot hot, local or nearby areas of the manufacturers have removed the goods, and naturally no time to take account of Shanghai." SKS on behalf of Zhang Xiangyang seen that the three major brands of lead little "visit" Shanghai reason. As the main flow of the Shanghai market over 13 varieties of lead ingots as much as, quality uneven, difficult to raise the price up, resulting in higher-priced brands sold in Shanghai, lead ingots profit is not high. Therefore, more are sold to other parts of Guangdong PCGA-BP2NX, Shanghai, supply is decreasing.

Lead prices continued to rise and supply constraints have to lead the upstream and downstream industry chain enterprises injury. Zhejiang Chao-wei Wang Wanli Corporate Purchasing Minister said that as the lead price increases, resulting in lower corporate profits, despite the fact that the company is big, strong price affordability, and has taken appropriate measures to deal with, the company still capable of a normal start However, some small PCGA-BP2NY battery producers basically already in a cut-off, semi cut-off state. The lead concentrate prices of lead ingots as prices have gone up, so that the cost of smelting companies increase profits.

In addition, this year, frequent fluctuations in the prices of lead ingots to downstream users is even more headaches. "We have factory to produce alloy mainly made of lead-user units, customers are mainly PCGA-BP2R battery manufacturers.-Down prices so that it is difficult to grasp the exact price, our business caught in between the upstream and downstream, very difficult. October Lead price of three times three, let us feel at a loss. "Gu director of the frequent changes in prices of lead was very helpless. Minister Wang said, "Shangcuanxiatiao" Lead in price so that enterprises bear a lot of pressure, so fluctuations in the back and forth more than a reasonable increase to the damage caused by a larger company.

Downstream users plight of enterprises has also been the understanding of factories and mines. Domestic lead production of leading enterprises - Yuguang Gold & Lead Yu-manager of a company representative said that next year, with the export tax rebate cancellation of refined lead, long decline in exports alone, there will be a part of lead ingots sold in Shanghai, Yu-ray will be addressed Rail transport issues, so that more of lead ingots to enter the Shanghai retail PCGA-BP2S market, the formation mechanism of price competition.

Finally, the participants reached a consensus on each enterprise, we must strive to maintain a healthy and stable market, so that the Shanghai market price of lead ingots more reasonable and lead the industry in order to achieve a win-win business chain.
