Union producers and exporting producers were required to indicate the number of wheels for all products they produced and sold on the Union market.
Komisija je zato sklenila, da imajo hitra električna kolesa, električna kolesa kategorije L1e-A in električna trikolesa enake osnovne fizikalne lastnosti ter končne uporabe kot druge vrste električnih koles, zato jih ni mogoče izključiti iz obsega izdelka v preiskavi.
It is therefore clear that tricycles were separately identified and investigated throughout the investigation.
Po razkritju so trije kitajski proizvajalci izvozniki, en uvoznik in zbornica CCCME ponovili zahtevo za izključitev električnih koles s pomožnim motorjem za pomoč pri poganjanju s pedali do 45 km/h (v nadaljnjem besedilu: hitra električna kolesa).
As bicycles are undisputedly the most common type of cycles, it is not surprising that the term e-bikes/electric bikes is generally used to refer to all types of electric cycles, in the investigation as well as in the market.
Navedene strani so trdile, da imajo hitra električna kolesa bistveno drugačne lastnosti in predvidene uporabe, da zanje ne veljajo iste regulativne zahteve, da imajo bistveno drugačne cene in stroške ter da z vidika potrošnika niso zamenljiva z drugimi električnimi kolesi s pomožnim motorjem za pomoč pri poganjanju s pedali do 25 km/h, zajetimi v to preiskavo.
This does not mean that other types of cycles were disregarded during the investigation.
Zbornica CCCME je trdila, da je Komisija prezrla, da sprememba programske opreme glede končne hitrosti, ki jo izvedejo potrošniki in jo je omenil pritožnik, ni zakonita, in dodala, da te možnosti ni mogoče šteti za verjetno.
The Commission therefore concluded that speed electric bicycles, L1e-A category electric bicycles and electric tricycles share the same basic physical characteristics and properties as well as end-uses with other types of electric cycles, and therefore cannot be excluded from the product scope of the investigation.
Pritožnik se je strinjal, da je bilo potrošniško povečanje končne hitrosti pomoči pri poganjanju s pedali s pomožnim motorjem s spreminjanjem programske opreme nezakonito.
Following disclosure, three Chinese exporting producers, one importer and the CCCME reiterated their claim to exclude electric bicycles with an auxiliary motor pedal assistance of up to 45 km/h (‘speed electric bicycles’).
Vendar je opozoril, da njegova trditev ni bila povezana s tako možnostjo, temveč s spremembami, ki so jih izvedli gospodarski subjekti (uvozniki, trgovci), preden so bila električna kolesa dana na trg Unije.
Those parties argued that speed electric bicycles have significantly different characteristics and intended uses, are not subject to the same regulatory requirements, have significantly different prices and costs, and that, from the consumers' perspective, they are not interchangeable with the other electric bicycles with an auxiliary motor pedal assistance of up to 25 km/h covered by this investigation.
Pravzaprav bi bile navedene spremembe programiranja programske opreme, če bi vključevale zmanjšanje končne hitrosti pomoči pri poganjanju s pedali s pomožnim motorjem, z vidika homologacije izdelka zakonite.
The CCCME claimed that the Commission had failed to note that the consumer alteration of the software on cut-off speed mentioned by the complainant was illegal and added that this prospect could not be treated as a likely possibility.
Pritožnik je dodal, da so take spremembe programiranja programske opreme ustvarile očitno tveganje za izogibanje protisubvencijskim ukrepom.
The complainant agreed that it was illegal for consumers to increase the auxiliary motor pedal assistance cut-off speed by making alterations to the software.
Komisija je poudarila, da se uvodna izjava 72 ne nanaša samo na potrošniško spreminjanje programske opreme, temveč na programiranje programske opreme na splošno.
However, it recalled that its claim was not related to such possibility but to the modifications by economic operators (importers, traders) before the electric bicycles were placed on the Union market.
Poleg tega se jasno nanaša na možnost spremembe končne hitrosti navzgor in navzdol.
Indeed, when those changes to software programming involve a decrease in the cut-off speed of the auxiliary motor pedal assistance, they would be legal from a product type approval perspective.
Čeprav zbornica CCCME ugotavlja, da bi bilo potrošniško povečanje končne hitrosti pomoči pri poganjanju s pedali s pomožnim motorjem nezakonito, ne dvomi o drugih spremembah programiranja programske opreme, kakršno je zmanjšanje končne hitrosti pomožnega motorja za pomoč pri poganjanju s pedali, ki ga opravijo gospodarski subjekti, omenjeni v uvodni izjavi 85.
The complainant added that such changes to software programming created an obvious risk of circumvention of the anti-subsidy measures.
Argument je bil zato zavrnjen.
The Commission pointed out that recital (72) does not only refer to consumer alteration of the software but to software programming in general.
Zbornica CCCME je trdila, da navedba pritožnika, da se za vsa električna kolesa izvajajo isti preskusi na podlagi standarda EN 15194, ni točna.
In addition, the same recital clearly refers to both the possibility to change the cut-off speed upwards and downwards.
Trdila je, da po standardu EN 15194 za vsa električna kolesa veljajo isti preskusni postopki.
While the CCCME notes that an an increase by the consumer of the auxiliary motor pedal assistance cut-off speed would be illegal, it does not question other software programming changes, such as decreasing the cut-off speed of the auxiliary motor for pedal assistance by economic operators mentioned in recital (85).
Vendar navedeni standard ne vpliva na razliko v hitrosti, ki narekuje različne zahteve in zaradi katere hitra električna kolesa niso zamenljiva z drugimi električnimi kolesi.
The argument was therefore rejected.
Poleg tega je trdila, da hitra električna kolesa v nasprotju z običajnimi električnimi kolesi ne spadajo na področje uporabe standarda EN 15194.
The CCCME claimed that the complainant's statement that all electric bicycles were subject to the same tests under the norm EN 15194 was inaccurate.
Zbornica CCCME je trdila, da so hitra električna kolesa kot mopedi za uporabo na javnih cestah zajeti z Uredbo (EU) št. 168/2013 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta.
The CCCME submitted that the norm EN 15194 subjects all electric bicycles to the same test procedures.
Navedena uredba izključuje električna kolesa s pedali z dodatnim pogonom s pomožnim motorjem s hitrostjo do 25 km/h.
That norm, however, has no bearing on the difference in speed which commands different requirements and makes speed electric bicycles not interchangeable with other electric bicycles.
Dodatna pravila, ki veljajo za hitra električna kolesa, zajemajo davke, izdajo dovoljenj in zavarovanje, registrske tablice in čelado, skladno z zahtevami za mopede, ter preglede skladnosti z varnostnimi zahtevami.
The CCCME further argued that speed electric bicycles, as opposed, to ordinary electric bicycles, did not fall under the scope of norm EN 15194.
Zbornica CCCME je trdila, da obrazložitev v uvodni izjavi 77, da imajo vsa električna kolesa enake fizikalne lastnosti, ne izpodbije trditve, da so s hitrimi električnimi kolesi povezane posebne zahteve glede opreme in regulativne zahteve.
The CCCME submitted that speed electric bicycles are covered as moped vehicles for use on public roads by Regulation (EU) No 168/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council.
Trdila je, da hitra električna kolesa zaradi teh posebnih zahtev niso zamenljiva z drugimi električnimi kolesi in da se potrošniki s tem mnenjem strinjajo.
That Regulation excludes electric bicycles with an auxiliary motor pedal assistance of up to 25 km/h.
Za utemeljitev te trditve je omenila nasprotovanje Evropske kolesarske federacije predlogu Komisije, da bi zahtevala zavarovanje odgovornosti do tretjih oseb za vsa električna kolesa, ne samo za hitra električna kolesa.
Additional rules applying to speed electric bicycles cover taxes, licensing and insurance, license plates and moped compliant helmet and safety compliance checks.
Pritožnik je trdil, da imajo vsa električna kolesa enake fizikalne lastnosti.
The CCCME submitted that the reasoning set out in recital (77) that all electric bicycles share the same physical characteristics does not overcome the argument that there are distinct equipment and regulatory requirements associated with speed electric bicycles.
Trdil je zlasti, da so vsa električna kolesa izdelana iz enakih delov in sestavnih delov koles ter da ni delov, ki bi se uporabljali izključno za hitra električna kolesa.
The CCCME claimed that due to those distinct requirements, speed electric bicycles were not interchangeable with other electric bicycles and that consumers supported this view.
To velja tudi za motorje, ki jih izdelujejo glavni proizvajalci motorjev in jih je z ustreznim programiranjem programske opreme mogoče uporabiti za poganjanje vseh vrst električnih koles.
In order to substantiate that argument, the CCCME mentioned the opposition of the European Cyclist Federation to the Commission's proposal to request third party liability insurance for all electric bicycles, not only speed electric bicycles.
Razlike med hitrimi električnimi kolesi in drugimi električnimi kolesi zato na podlagi njihovega videza ni mogoče zanesljivo ugotoviti.
The complainant submitted that all electric bicycles share the same physical characteristics.
Pritožnik je trdil, da dojemanje potrošnikov ni odločilni dejavnik za določitev obsega izdelka v postopkih trgovinske zaščite ter da so električna kolesa z vsemi ravnmi pomoči pri poganjanju s pedali s pomožnim motorjem na voljo v različnih kategorijah uporabe (na primer za dnevne migracije, izlete, dirke in v gorah) in se prodajajo vsem skupinam strank ne glede na starost in spol.
In particular, the complainant submitted that all electric bicycles are made of the same bicycle parts and components, and that there are no bicycles' parts which are exclusively used for speed electric bicycles.
Potrošniško dojemanje in uporaba zato ne upravičujeta izključitve hitrih električnih koles iz obsega izdelka.
This includes the motors manufactured by the major motor producers which can be used to power all types of electric bicycles with the adequate software programming.
Pritožnik je trdil, da merilo homologacije in splošneje uvrstitev po Uredbi (EU) št. 168/2013 v tem primeru nista primerna za opredelitev obsega izdelka.
The difference between speed electric bicycles and other electric bicycles cannot therefore be reliably established on the basis of their physical appearance.
Trdil je, da homologacija ni obvezna za vsa hitra električna kolesa, temveč samo za tista, ki so namenjena uporabi na javnih cestah.
The complainant submitted that consumer perception is not a determining factor for the determination of the product scope in trade defence proceedings and claimed that electric bicycles of all auxiliary motor pedal assistance levels are available in the different use categories (for example, for use in commuting, trekking, racing and on mountains) and are marketed to all customer groups irrespective of their age and gender.
To bi na primer izključilo gorsko električno kolo, ki se uporablja izključno za tekmovanja ali gorska brezpotja in za katero prav tako ne bi veljale dodatne zahteve, povezane s homologacijo (registrska tablica, čelada in zavarovanje).
Consumer perception and use therefore does not justify an exclusion of speed electric bicycles from the product scope.
Poleg tega je pritožnik trdil, da za električna kolesa, za katera homologacija po Uredbi (EU) št. 168/2013 ni obvezna, kljub temu veljajo popolnoma enake zahteve glede varnosti izdelka po direktivi Unije o strojih.
The complainant submitted that the criterion of type approval and more generally the classification under Regulation (EU) No 168/2013 are not suitable for the definition of the product scope in the present case.
Dodal je še, da je veljavni standard, ki določa posebne zahteve, isti za vsa električna kolesa, in sicer usklajeni standard EN 15194, ter zato ponovil trditev, izraženo v uvodni izjavi 71.
The complainant argued that not all speed electric bicycles are subject to type approval but only those intended for use on public roads.
Komisija je opozorila, da je njen predlog za razširitev zahteve za zavarovanje odgovornosti do tretjih oseb na vsa električna kolesa, ki ga je zbornica CCCME uporabila za utemeljitev zatrjevane razlike v dojemanju potrošnikov, prav tako pokazal, da se razlike v regulativnih zahtevah spreminjajo ter da niso primerna in trdna osnova za izključitev hitrih električnih koles iz obsega izdelka.
This would exclude, for instance, an electric mountain bike used exclusively for competitive events or off-road mountains which would also not be subject to the further requirements related to type approval (license plate, helmet and insurance).
Komisija je sklepala, da predložene dodatne informacije niso bile takšne, da bi spremenile njene ugotovitve o obsegu izdelka, namreč, da imajo električna kolesa enake osnovne fizikalne lastnosti in značilnosti ter da se dojemanje potrošnikov in uporabe precej prekrivajo.
Furthermore, the complainant argued that electric bicycles which are not subject to type approval under the Regulation (EU) No 168/2013 are nevertheless subject to the exact same product safety requirements under the Union machinery directive.
Argumenti zbornice CCCME so bili zato zavrnjeni.
The complainant further added that the applicable norm setting specific requirements is the same for all electric bicycles, namely the harmonised norm EN 15194 and therefore restated the claim reflected in recital (71).
Ker ni bilo drugih pripomb v zvezi z obsegom izdelka, je Komisija potrdila sklepe iz uvodnih izjav 74 do 81.
The Commission noted that its proposal to extend the requirement of third-party liability insurance to all electric bicycles, used by the CCCME to substantiate the claimed difference in consumer perception, equally showed that the differences in regulatory requirements were evolving and did not provide a suitable and stable basis to exclude speed electric bicycles from the product scope.
SUBVENCIONIRANJE
The Commission concluded that the additional information submitted was not of a nature to alter its findings regarding the product scope, namely that electric bicycles share the same basic physical characteristics and properties and that consumer perception and uses overlap significantly.
Uvod: Predstavitev vladnih načrtov, projektov in drugih dokumentov
The arguments of the CCCME were therefore rejected.
Komisija je pred analizo domnevnega subvencioniranja v obliki posebnih subvencij ali programov subvencij (oddelek 3.5 in naslednji spodaj) ocenila vladne načrte, projekte in druge dokumente, ki so bili pomembni za več kot eno subvencijo ali program subvencij.
In the absence of any other comments with respect to the product scope, the Commission confirmed the conclusions set out in recitals (74) to (81).
Ugotovila je, da so vse subvencije ali programi subvencij, ki se ocenjujejo, del izvajanja centralnega načrtovanja kitajske vlade iz razlogov, opisanih v nadaljevanju.
SUBSIDISATION
V 13. petletnem načrtu za nacionalni gospodarski in družbeni razvoj LRK (v nadaljnjem besedilu: 13. petletni načrt), ki zajema obdobje 2016–2020, je poudarjena strateška vizija kitajske vlade za izboljšanje in spodbujanje ključnih industrij, kot je industrija električnih koles.
Introduction: Presentation of government plans, projects and other documents
Poudarjena sta vloga tehnoloških inovacij v gospodarskem razvoju LRK in stalni pomen načel „zelenega“ razvoja.
Before analysing the alleged subsidisation in the form of specific subsidies or subsidy programmes (sections 3.5 and following below) the Commission assessed government plans, projects and other documents, which were relevant for more than one of the subsidies or subsidy programmes.
V skladu s poglavjem 5 tega načrta je eno glavnih razvojnih načel spodbujanje posodobitve tradicionalne industrijske strukture, kar je veljalo že za 12. petletni načrt.
It found that all subsidies or subsidy programmes under assessment form part of the implementation of the GOC's central planning for the reasons outlined below.
Ta zamisel je podrobneje razdelana v poglavju 22, kjer je pojasnjena strategija za posodobitev tradicionalne industrije v LRK s spodbujanjem tehnološkega preoblikovanja industrije.
The 13th Five Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development of the PRC (‘the 13th Five Year Plan’), which covers the period 2016-2020, highlights the strategic vision of the GOC for improvement and promotion of key industries, such as the electric bicycles industry.
V zvezi s tem je v 13. petletnem načrtu navedeno, da bodo družbe deležne podpore za „celovito izboljšanje na področjih, kot so tehnologija izdelkov, industrijska oprema, varstvo okolja in energetska učinkovitost“.
According to its chapter 5, one of the main development lines is to promote the upgrading of the traditional industrial structure, as was already the case in the 12th Five Year Plan.
Kitajska vlada bo prav tako „spodbujala inovacije in industrijsko uporabo na nastajajočih najnaprednejših področjih, kot so […] sistemi za visokoučinkovito hrambo energije in distribuirano energijo, […], varstvo okolja […]“.
This idea is further elaborated in chapter 22, which explains the strategy to modernize the traditional industry in the PRC by promoting its technological conversion.
V 13. petletnem načrtu so med šestimi „strateškimi industrijami“ za Kitajsko „vozila na pogon z novimi viri energije“, z njim pa „si prizadevajo poskrbeti, da bo dodana vrednost strateških nastajajočih industrij dosegla 15 % BDP Kitajske“.
In this respect, the 13th Five Year Plan states that companies will be supported to ‘comprehensively improve in areas such as product technology, industrial equipment, environmental protection and energy efficiency’.
V poglavju 23 se kitajska vlada zlasti zavezuje, da bo:
In particular, Part V (Chapters 22 to 24) aims at developing an optimised modern industrial system with the objective of making China a ‘manufacturing powerhouse’ by 2025.
„spodbujala uporabo vozil na pogon z novimi viri energije“;
In order for emerging industries to boost the economy, the plan ‘encourages’ the development and promotes the use of new-energy vehicles and encourages the development of all-electric vehicles.
„razvijala popolnoma električna vozila in hibridna električna vozila s poudarkom na izboljšavah na ključnih tehnoloških področjih, kot sta gostota energije v baterijah in temperaturna prilagodljivost baterij“;
More in detail, Chapter 23 on the development of strategic emerging industries indicates that the GOC ‘will support the development of next generation information technology, new-energy vehicles, […], green and low-carbon technology, […]’.
„olajšala razvoj omrežja naprav za polnjenje in storitev, ki so medsebojno združljive in ustrezajo poenotenim standardom“;
In addition, the GOC will ‘spur innovation and industrial application in emerging cutting-edge fields such as […] systems for high-efficiency energy storage and distributed energy, […], environmental protection […]’.
„izboljšala politike, s katerimi bo v zvezi s tem zagotavljala stalno podporo“;
The 13th Five Year Plan includes the ‘new-energy vehicles’ among the six ‘strategic industries’ for China and ‘will work to ensure that the value-added of strategic emerging industries reaches 15 % of China's GDP’.
„poskrbela, da bo skupna vrednost celotne proizvodnje in prodaje vozil na pogon z novimi viri energije na Kitajskem dosegla pet milijonov“;
In particular, in Chapter 23 the GOC engages to:
„krepila prizadevanja za predelavo in odstranjevanje rabljenih baterij iz vozil na pogon z novimi viri energije“.
‘Promote the use of new-energy vehicles’;
Načrt razvoja lahke industrije (2016–2020) (v nadaljnjem besedilu: načrt razvoja lahke industrije), ki ga je kitajska vlada pripravila za izvajanje 13. petletnega načrta in strategije Made in China 2025, prav tako opredeljuje industriji koles in baterij kot ključni.
‘Develop all-electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles with a focus on making advancements in key technological areas such as battery energy density and battery temperature adaptability’;
Industrija koles in električnih koles potrebuje „inženiring za tehnološko reformo“ z „industrializacijo kolesa iz novih materialov, tehnično preobrazbo inteligentne, do okolja prijazne in učinkovite linije za proizvodnjo električnih koles ter ključnih delov“.
‘Facilitate the development of a network of charging facilities and services that are compatible with each other and come under unified standards’;
Zlasti tudi priporoča: „Spodbujanje industrije koles, da se razvija v smeri izdelave lahkih, raznovrstnih, modnih in inteligentnih koles. Pospeševanje raziskav in razvoja ter uporabe visokotrdnega lahkega materiala, prenosa moči, pogonskega sistema, nove energije, inteligentne tehnologije zaznavanja in tehnologije interneta stvari.
‘Improve policies to provide continuous support in this regard’;
Poudarek na razvoju raznovrstnih koles, primernih za modne in prostočasne namene, vadbo in pridobivanje telesne zdržljivosti, terensko vožnjo na dolge razdalje ter zlaganje ob zagotavljanju visoke zmogljivosti, in električnega kolesa, ki ustreza standardnemu in inteligentnemu električnemu kolesu z litij-ionsko baterijo“.
‘Ensure the cumulative total production and sales figures for new-energy vehicles in China reach five million’;
Načrt razvoja lahke industrije navaja tudi nekatere konkretne ukrepe politik za spodbujanje ključnih industrij, kot sta industriji električnih koles in baterij, kakor je opisano v naslednjih treh uvodnih izjavah.
‘Strengthen efforts to recover and dispose of used batteries from new energy vehicles’.
Prvi sklop ukrepov se nanaša na povečanje reforme dostopa do trga, predvsem s poenostavitvijo upravnih korakov (tj. ukinitvijo nepotrebnih odobritev, zmanjšanjem in standardizacijo pristojbin ter postopka odobritve).
The Light Industry Development Plan (2016-2020), (‘Light Industry Development Plan’), prepared by the GOC to implement the 13th Five Year Plan and Made in China 2025, also identifies the bicycles and battery industry as key industries.
Dalje kitajska vlada navaja industrijska področja in dejavnosti, pri katerih so naložbe prepovedane ali omejene (tj. katalogi naložb, glej uvodno izjavo 126).
The bicycles and electric bicycle industry requires ‘Technology Reformation Engineering’ through the ‘Industrialization of new-material bicycle, technical transformation of the intelligent, environment-friendly and efficient electric bicycle production line and crucial parts’.
Drugi sklop ukrepov se nanaša na povečanje podpore politiki obdavčenja financiranja:
In particular, it also recommends to ‘Promote the bicycle industry to develop in a lightweight, diversified, fashionable and intelligent direction.
„Omogočiti skladu za razvoj srednjih in malih podjetjih popoln razvoj vodilne vloge, usmerjati srednja in mala podjetja, da povečajo naložbe v tehnološke inovacije, strukturno prilagoditev, ohranjanje energije in zmanjševanje emisij, izvajati različne preferenčne politike, izpopolniti storitveni sistem za srednja in mala podjetja“.
Speed up the R&D and application of high-strength light material, transmission, drive system, new energy, intelligent sensing technology and Internet of Things technology.
„Izvajati pospeševalno politiko amortizacije osnovnih sredstev, usmerjati podjetja, da povečajo naložbe v napredno opremo“.
Focus on developing diversified bicycles suitable for fashionable and casual purposes, exercise and fitness, long-distance country crossing and high-performance folding, and the electric bicycle complied with standard and intelligent electric bicycle with lithium ion battery’.
„Omogočiti posebnim skladom za čisto proizvodnjo ustrezno vlogo, usmerjati uporabo tehnologije proizvodnje in spodbujanje tehnologije čiste proizvodnje v ključnih industrijah“.
