High-efficiency Electric Product Subsidy
Purpose
This program aims to reduce power consumption and promote energy use rationalization by encouraging use of high-efficiency electric devices that can lower power consumption.
History
- This program has been implemented with the Foundation Fund for Power Industry since 2001 as a measure of electricity demand-side management projects such as electricity load management program, programs to promote electricity demand-side management and programs to improve power efficiency
Details
Definition
- KEA promotes the use of high-efficiency electric devices to reduce electricity consumption and peak power. This is to encourage the public to rationalize their energy consumption.
-
KEA replaces old lighting systems with high-efficiency devices for free for the energy poor such as low-income groups and social welfare facilities. This is to improve their energy welfare.
※ low-income groups: General recipients of the basic living assistance program prescribed in the National Basic Living Security Act
※ Social welfare facilities: Community and Utility facilities that are reported to the Ministry of Health & Welfare and the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family
Targets of the program
- Projects to promote high-efficiency equipment: LED lamps with interior/exterior converter, inverters, coolers
- Projects to promote electricity load management equipment: cold storage systems, remote controlling systems of cooling and heating equipment, peak electricity control system, district cooling systems, gas cooling systems
- Projects to improve energy welfare: High-efficiency fluorescent lamps and LED lamps
