In order to implement the relevant decisions and deployments of the CPC Central Committee, the State Council, the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, the Guangdong Provincial Government, and the Zhaoqing Municipal Party Committee and the Zhaoqing Municipal Government, and to further improve the declaration and reservation work for the renovation and modernization of old residential elevators in Zhaoqing City in 2025, the relevant guidelines are as follows.
1. Policy background
In July 2024, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued the "Several Measures on Strengthening Support for Large-scale Equipment Renewal and Consumer Goods Trade-in", which included the renewal of old elevators in the scope of support for the special funds for large-scale equipment renewal from the ultra-long-term special treasury bonds. Our city is organizing the survey of willingness for the renewal and renovation of old residential elevators in Zhaoqing and the project application and reservation work. The main content of this work is to support the renewal and renovation of old elevators that have been legally constructed, have undergone use registration, have a long service life, low configuration level, high operational failure rate, and strong public willingness for renewal and renovation.
II. Subsidy standards for renovation and transformation
(1) Renewal of old elevators: This refers to the removal of the entire old elevator and the reinstallation of a new elevator of the same or different brand. Subsidy standard: A fixed subsidy of 150,000 yuan per elevator (subject to the notice from the higher-level department).
(II) Renovation of old elevators: This refers to the maintenance or upgrading of elevators without replacing the original equipment, but by adopting methods such as replacing, adjusting, and adding elevator parts, in order to eliminate potential safety hazards. Subsidy standard: A fixed subsidy of 50,000 yuan per elevator (subject to the notice from higher authorities).
III. Application period
The official application and deadline for this residential old elevator renovation project shall be subject to the notification of the superior department. Please ensure that all regions properly prepare for project application and reservation.

In residential projects legally constructed in Zhaoqing City, priority is given to the renovation and upgrading of old residential elevators that have been in use for more than 15 years (with use registration processed before May 1, 2009). Additionally, preference is given to the renovation and upgrading of old residential elevators that have been in use for more than 20 years (with use registration processed before May 1, 2004). For old residential elevators that have not reached a service registration period of 15 years but exhibit issues such as low configuration level, high operation failure rate, and a strong willingness for renovation and upgrading, applications can also be submitted.

(III) Implementation of project funds. Where multi-channel fundraising is required for renovation and upgrading, it is necessary to ensure that the funding for elevator renovation and upgrading is fully secured.
