Batteries suspected of collective prices? Enterprises have to meet and harmonize release

“Electric cars are a direct result of the collective prices of the battery industry, the collective price increases; if the collective price increases electric vehicles suspected of unfair competition, then the battery industry is also suspected of unfair competition, right?” Yesterday, this newspaper, “Electric cars have been a collective price increases questioned the price department considers that this alleged unfair competition, “a text immediately after the vibration caused by electric car industry, some electric car company executives told reporters questioned.

Battery Industry:

Changxing has opened in prices will be

“March 11, the domestic 38 battery manufacturers have come to the main person in charge, Changxing, Zhejiang, and in the local hotel ’2007 Spring Festival was held a forum ‘.” Hangzhou, a famous electric car company official told reporters, ” March 12, the battery manufacturers have Canon Battery sent a letter to the electric car manufacturers and said that starting from the day of 10% -15% price rise. ”

Subsequently, the responsible person’s fax back a day, “Minutes.” In the “summary” to see such words: “The meeting recommended that the battery manufacturer battery price adjustments as follows: 1, the proposed battery prices rise 10% -15%. 2, the price adjustment from 2007 March 12 started. ”

Changxing, an immediate telephone contact with reporters well-known battery manufacturers. Sales manager told us: “do have such a meeting and China Battery Industry Association, the provincial battery industry associations and related responsible persons also participated. After the meeting, all of the batteries enterprise unified issued a price increase notice … … we are also openly stated that 10% -15% price increase. ”

Yesterday afternoon, the reporter contacted Battery Industry Association, Zhejiang Province, but the call has been unanswered. Then, reporters were again responsible for a number of electric car companies, they have said does have such a meeting, but also received a battery company sent a “minutes.”

Municipal Price Bureau:

The new situation has been reported to Provincial Price Bureau

“This afternoon we have just minutes to get, and promptly reported to the provincial Bureau of Commodity Canon NB-2L Prices.” Relevant person in charge, Hangzhou Price Bureau, told reporters yesterday, “If the battery industry, indeed the adoption of collective meetings, at the same time and with the way the magnitude of price increases, Of course, also suspected of illegal price. ”

In addition, the responsible person also told reporters that the Municipal Price Bureau electric car manufacturers next week will conduct a survey on the collective price increases.

Retail Market:

There was no substantial price adjustment

Yesterday, the reporter visited Hangzhou, a number of electric cars on the road Qingchun marketing enterprise, found that most of the retail price of electric cars, and did not increase, the owners told the reporter, the factory did not say that prices matter.

“Philip” electric car dealer Determined, Hangzhou general told reporters: “The ex-factory battery is indeed improved, but we are determined not to up the retail price. We have just talk about good and manufacturers to improve the cost borne by the manufacturers and distributors of all 50 %. ”

“Constant Light” Electric Vehicle Sales Manager Sun also told reporters that they appropriate increase ex-factory price of electric cars, but manufacturers and distributors to agree not to raise the retail market selling price.

“From March 16 onwards, we have continuously improved the ex-factory and retail prices, but our prices, while other Canon NB-2LH brands do not raise prices, let us feel the pressure particularly large.” Hangzhou, head of another company, told reporters.

In response, the industry said: “Under the same premise of higher costs, some companies increase the retail prices, some companies remain the same, obviously intensified competition within the industry can promote the survival of the fittest. However, the quality supervision department at the moment, should pay close attention to individual firms is likely to reduce costs and reduce product quality, this is the case out of control, it will lead to disorderly competition in the market and endanger the entire industry. ”

Is directed at the storage battery industry “agreement price hikes”

Hang mass production electric cars, after news of price increases, not only by the provincial Consumer Protection Committee of suspected price-fixing cartel. Subsequently, Hangzhou price sector pointed out that this violation of the “Price Law,” and pledged to intervene and investigate.

The voices of doubt in the face of all involved in March 21 “price hikes” Hang the meeting produced electric vehicle manufacturers expressed their own different views. Some manufacturers said that “I did not expect the law,” said the cessation of the breach; some manufacturers said, battery industry is a collective price increases, and that’s violated.

The face of electric car companies questioned the different attitudes of

Yesterday, the reporter contacted some of Hangzhou production electric vehicle manufacturers. They said, “I did not expect the law”, and an immediate end to such violations; but there are also producers not understand.

“Hold a meeting just reached a consensus on price increases, but each enterprise or are not the same for each Canon NB-3L brand.” Yu, general manager of Hangzhou city car industry, the city of electric cars rose only 40-50 Yuan / vehicle, while some a relatively well-known brand, rose a little higher. He therefore believed that the March 21 meeting to discuss prices and not a price-fixing cartel, but the proper market regulation.

Hangzhou Shi Jia Li Qi, general manager of car industry, water-keung, said the company prices the day before yesterday issued a notice Jiuji dealers, depending on battery size up a 30-50 per month. And this “collective price increase” because the price of all different levels of the enterprise itself, or are not the same.

Shi Shui-qiang believe that this meeting discuss a collective price increases are actually learning battery industries; then, battery manufacturing industry is also illegal.

Battery industry is also an agreement prices?

Shi Shui-qiang a fax sent to the Times, the content is the battery industry association documents, Zhejiang Province. The document said, March 11, China Battery Industry Association, Zhejiang Province Battery Industry Association held a forum to all Member battery enterprises to issue recommendations in the form of minutes of meeting: From March 12, the battery ex-factory price increases 10% -15%. With the rising price of lead, battery prices will be adjusted accordingly.

The Minutes of the meeting explained the reasons for price increases, that is: With the lead in the overall market trend in 2006, rising steadily, so far, lead prices rose 20 percent over the same period, this year will be continuation of last year’s gains. In this way, the problem of high production costs depend on the internal management of enterprises can no longer balance, battery prices must be raised.

Shi Shui-qiang that if the electric vehicle batteries not raising their prices, vehicle prices do not, everything has a cause and effect relationship, “is indeed a forced resignation.” In fact, each involved in the case of the electric car manufacturers have said the reason they want to discuss electric vehicle prices, because the Canon NB-4L battery prices are too much.

Provincial departments will be involved in the investigation price

Yesterday afternoon, Hangzhou Price Bureau supervision and inspection branch of the Secretary Wang Weidong said that if Hang production electric car companies a waiver of price-fixing cartel, as the price inspection departments are welcome.

Hope that related companies, while maintaining the price difference, legal and orderly participation in market competition.

Wang Weidong said that he had been informed provincial battery industry associations to the form of minutes of the meeting regarding the proposed price increases, the price has been provincial department reporting.

Subsequently, the reporter and the provincial chairman of the price supervision and inspection stations to get in touch. The relevant responsible person said, had been concerned about the incident.

Battery Industry Association on the province, whether the conduct of an offense, the provincial price departments will be involved in the investigation.

Hang on the part of the production electric car companies say the price do not understand the law, Hangzhou Price Bureau supervision and inspection of sub-JIANG Yi Institute of Allergy long said that if there is possible, the pricing department can be organized together with related businesses to learn, and also welcomes the enterprises to the price sector advisory and reflect the price.

The invention to a cell “burden reduction” charger

End of electrical charge to use it to make three or four days more than

23, Dongsheng Street, near the reporters in a men’s apartment saw the Song Dehui, although some of the crowded room, his bed was filled with a variety of electrical maintenance tools. He took out his cell phone charger invented, from the appearance point of view and nothing else not the same charger. “I have to use some electrical theory, it was modified.” He introduced have adopted common charger DC charge the Canon NB-5H battery a long time there will be a “fatigue memory”, people think less and less durable, mobile electric charge End not take a few days later. After that he improved, charger charge compression methods to make the battery to eliminate the “fatigue memory”, but also extend battery life.

“Now people who live in the apartment are fighting over who gets to use his invention of the charger.” Residing with him, Mr. Wang told reporters before the normal use of your mobile phone battery standby time to 4 days, with this charger, the battery can be to spend 78 days.

Also applies to car looking for collaborators

Song Dehui 20-year-old in 2005, not yet graduated from technical school when he fell in love with the invention. “I found the battery in particular can not help but use, used for some time, not much electric charge quickly had.” So, Song Dehui have invented the idea of durable charger as a way to improve the charging energy. With his own study of the electrical and electronic knowledge, has disassembly of the thirty or forty battery chargers. In late 2006, his invention finally take shape.

“At first I was using a mobile phone charger research, but then I also Battery Charger for use in motor vehicles were converted. Now, I give this invention not only use of mobile phones, cars can use.” To invent, he has invested more than RMB the 3 plus years working in the auto repair shop she saved up all their savings run out. “As long as my invention can benefit more people, I believe that the value of flowers.”

At present, the Song Dehui invention has been patented.
