Tiếng ViệtOn May 24, 2023, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 14/2023/QD-TTg, stipulating the list and roadmap of low-efficiency energy-using vehicles and equipment that must be eliminated (not allowed). permits for import, domestic production and business) and low-efficiency generating sets are not newly built.
Accordingly, the list and roadmap of low-efficiency energy-using equipment that must be eliminated are specified in Appendix I to this Decision, including:
1. Household appliances group: Compact fluorescent lamps, electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps, electromagnetic ballasts for fluorescent lamps, straight tube fluorescent lamps, storage water heaters, stoves infrared, induction cooker, LED lights, ductless air conditioners, household washing machines, television sets, rice cookers, electric fans, refrigerators, refrigerators and freezers.
2. Office and commercial equipment group: Computer monitors, copiers, printers, laptops, desktop computers and commercial refrigerators.
3. Industrial equipment group: Three-phase asynchronous electric motors with squirrel cage rotors, distribution transformers, LED lights for street and street lighting, boilers in industrial enterprises.
4. The list and roadmap for specific application to coal and gas generating sets in thermal power plants with low efficiency that are not allowed to be newly built are specified in Appendix II to this Decision. in there:
5. Failing to approve the investment policy in coal and gas-fired thermal power plants with energy efficiency lower than the prescribed efficiency corresponding to the capacity range of the generating set specified in Appendix II to this Circular. pursuant to this Decision.
6. It is not allowed to operate coal- and gas-fired generating sets whose efficiency at the time of commercial operation is lower than the specified efficiency corresponding to each capacity range of the generating set specified in Appendix II. Appendix II attached to this Decision.
Thus, according to the roadmap and the first milestone is July 15, 2023, low-efficiency energy-using vehicles and equipment must be eliminated, NOT all vehicles and equipment that are listed in the list.
In addition, this Decision does not apply to vehicles and equipment temporarily imported for re-export, serving repair, replacement, and energy efficiency testing.
The list of low-efficiency vehicles and equipment that will be banned from being imported, manufactured or sold domestically if they fail to meet the minimum energy efficiency levels specified in the National Standards – TCVN below:
