Workers of Ha Tinh Electricity Company advise on how to save electricity to customers. When the weather is hot, most families use continuously cooling devices such as electric fans and air conditioners. According to director of EVNNPC Customer Care Center Nguyen Trong Phung, air conditioning is the main factor that makes electricity bills soar. Research shows that, during hot weather, due to the continuous use of air conditioners, electricity consumption will increase by 50% -60% on average. Through studies and experiments have shown, when the outdoor temperature increases by 1oC, the electricity consumption of air conditioners increases by 2-3%. The habit of the hotter it is, the more families let the lower room temperature inadvertently make the air conditioner work continuously, leading to increased electricity consumption. To help reduce costs and contribute to stable operation of the power grid, EVNNPC recommends that customers who use electricity need to have the best temperature between 26 and 28 degrees Celsius. In case of not cool enough, users can turn on add a combined blower, which will save about 2-3% energy compared to turning the air conditioner on at a lower heat level. In addition, not regularly cleaning the air conditioner is also a cause of wasted electricity. In addition to the proper use of electrical equipment, EVNNPC recommends that people not simultaneously use large capacity electrical equipment (electric stove, washing machine, heater …) during peak hours (including including the time frame from 11:00 to 14:00 and from 6:00 pm to 11:00 pm daily). EVNNPC will be responsible for checking, handling and satisfactorily responding to all comments and problems of electricity customers in 27 Northern provinces.

The talented Hungarian architect Tamás Bene has designed a lovely boat house for a young couple from Budapest. The boat house is originally a local fishing boat, anchored at Lake Tisza – an artificial reservoir located in a 7,000-hectare nature reserve, home to wildlife including more than 100 species of birds together. The ship is made of two main materials, aluminum and treated wood. When going into practice, the designer develops the idea based on the needs and wants of the couple. And the most important thing is to design boats in harmony with nature and in harmony with the surrounding environment. To get as close to nature as possible, the boat has a large panoramic window, sliding doors that create a seamless connection to the starboard deck. The interior uses red wood and heat-resistant wood, including a kitchen, dining room with two benches and a table. At night, the table can be lowered by chair to form a unique, space-saving and multi-purpose bed. Each object placed on the boat has its own implications, not redundant by small, narrow space. The boat house also has two roof-mounted solar panels that power electrical appliances, including front and rear headlights, lights, and a small refrigerator. “Drinking water is taken from a 20 liter bottle and can be delivered to the tap with a foot operated pump, so no electricity is needed,” explained the architect. The boat itself is powered by a combustion engine with a capacity of 9.9 horsepower, allowing the operator to navigate around the shallow, winding canals of Lake Tisza./.
