The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the General Administration of Market Supervision issued the notice of the Motor Energy efficiency improvement Plan (2021-2023). According to the circular, by 2023, the annual output of high-efficiency and energy-saving motors will reach 170 million kilowatts, and the proportion of high-efficiency and energy-saving motors in service will reach more than 20 percent, saving 49 billion kilowatt hours of electricity annually, equivalent to saving 15 million tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 28 million tons. Popularize and apply a number of key core materials, components and process technology and equipment, form a number of backbone manufacturing enterprises, and promote the high-quality development of the motor industry.

Guide enterprises to update and upgrade key energy-consuming equipment such as motors, give priority to high-efficiency and energy-saving motors, and speed up the elimination of backward and inefficient motors that do not meet the requirements of the current national energy efficiency standards. Increase the application of high-efficiency and energy-saving motors. Subdivide the load characteristics and different working conditions, for fans, pumps, compressors, machine tools and other general equipment, encourage the use of 2-level energy efficiency and above motors. According to the variable load operating condition, the variable frequency speed regulation permanent magnet motor with level 2 energy efficiency and above is promoted. For transmission systems that use gearboxes and couplers, low-speed direct-drive and high-speed direct-drive permanent magnet motors are encouraged. Vigorously develop permanent magnet external rotor electric drum, integrated screw compressor and other motors and load equipment structure integrated design technology and products.
