At present, there are nearly 20 companies that can produce nuclear power cables in China, of which 6 to 7 are producing K1 products and nearly 10 are producing K3 products. As a clean energy source, wind energy is inexhaustible and has the most development value. From a global point of view, the wind energy industry will maintain an annual growth rate of 20%, which means a huge market space for China's cable manufacturing industry.
However, the environment of wind power generation is poor, the service life of fans is long, and the cables need to rotate with the fans. The technical requirements for the cables are very high. They must be resistant to twisting, cold, salt spray, oil, ultraviolet and soft. Although the domestic R&D of wind power cables is still in its infancy, there are 6 to 7 companies that can produce wind power special cables. These companies have abundant capital and technology. It is difficult for other companies to squeeze into the cable market for wind power.
“The investment that is suitable for oneself and can lay a long-term foundation for the company and enhance its current efficiency is the best.†According to Jiang Huajun, after several years of development, the Far East Group’s wind power cable production scale has reached RMB 2 billion, and the nuclear power cable The scale of production reached 3 billion yuan. In addition, Far East Cable uses 3% of its sales revenue each year as R&D input for new energy cables to further expand and capture the market.
Focus on the main business
In recent years, due to the difficult survival of cable companies, many enterprises have switched to production and diversified operations, among which there are many well-known large companies. The proportion of diversified industries is gradually increasing, and the main industry is not prominent, resulting in the competitiveness of Chinese cable companies. Constantly lower.
“Only by concentrating resources and specializing in the main business can we make the cable industry bigger, stronger, and better.†Xiaoyan Cao said that only focusing on the cable industry for a long period of time will be conducive to the cultivation of professional talents and the accumulation of technology. Many areas of the cable manufacturing industry are high-tech intensive industries. Without a strong professional and scientific team, it is impossible to carry out technological innovation and scientific research and development.
The facts show that nothing can be done as a result. In the next few years, the national cable manufacturing industry will continue to experience a difficult stage. There must be a number of backbones, always focusing on the development of the cable industry, and supporting the banner of China's national cable industry. The development of specialization can be extended along the upstream and downstream of the product and industrial chain. The development space is actually huge.
Pay attention to standard setting
When many Chinese companies opened up overseas markets, we found that in addition to a series of trade protection barriers, foreign countries often set technical barriers through the formulation of technical standards. Technical barriers also allow Chinese companies to pay enough production costs and marketing costs. For example, to enter the US market to pass UL certification, to meet European standards in Europe; some European industries even have to revise a standard every two years, the purpose is very clear, that is, allow you to turn around their standards. China's standards are far behind the changes in emerging markets. Leading products such as wind power, nuclear power, optoelectronics, and smart grid have no prior intervention in the national standard.
Experts believe that for China's cable economy to integrate into the global market, it needs more standard sense of competition and sense of responsibility of the nation. “Chinese companies also need to learn to use technology strategies that compete with standards and rivals.†Yang Qidong, chairman of Fujian Qidong Wire and Cable Co., Ltd. believes that if China’s international tendering project is to set national standards, the future market competition will be Obviously reflected.
