4. Context National Development Plan 2010-2014 (chapter 6):
The mining/energy sector is considered a growth “locomotive” (key productive sector), and has the responsibility to ensure the energy provision for the development of the other sectors
The sector’s commitment focuses on supplying the demand with high quality energetic, in a reliable and environmentally sustainable manner.
