The government is likely to add laptops, photocopiers and printers to the list of subsidized product items that meet a certain level of energy-saving requirements, the Beijing News reported Wednesday, citing Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology Su Bo. In September 2012, desktop computers were added to the list, with the government offering 260 yuan ($42.35) in subsidies for people purchasing energy-saving desktops. Photo: IC
