3. Applying energy-saving technologies to mineral screening, sorting, processing and transportation;
4. Reasonably designing and installing ventilation systems in pits to ensure economical and efficient use of energy.
Article 13. Measures for economical and efficient use of energy applicable to energy producers and suppliers
1. Energy producers and suppliers shall, based on standards, technical regulations and norms on energy use. apply the following technological and managerial measures:
a/ Selecting technologies with high energy yield: fully installing measuring devices and examining their operation parameters; regularly adjusting and maintaining furnaces, machines and accessories in electric power plants to ensure that the plants' general yield reach their designed yield;
b/ Making use of emitted heat and steam of high temperature for the burning and drying of fuels and heating of water supplied to furnaces in order to raise electric generation yield of turbine units:
c/ Power generating establishments are subject to national power system regulating units' mobilization and shall elaborate and implement plans to reduce self-consumed power;
d/ Hydro-power plants shall observe processes to operate reservoirs or reservoir systems, meet requirements on safe power generation and join efforts to supply water for production and life;
e/ Electricity transmission and distribution units shall elaborate programs, plans and norms on and specify roadmaps for power loss reduction in the electricity transmission and distribution system;
f/ Fuel exploiters and suppliers shall use safe and appropriate depots and vehicles to reduce fuel loss and present environmental pollution and energy waste;
g/ Coal, oil and gas exploiters shall adopt plans to salvage associated gas and other energy resources.
2. Construction of coal-, oil-, or gas-fired turbine units of outdated technologies and low yield is disallowed under the Prime Minister's regulations.
Article 14. Cottage industrial producers' responsibilities for economical and efficient use of energy
