One of the main issues in Iran is energy efficiency. After announcement of Article 12 of the Law on Elimination of barriers to production, some public companies, such as IFCO, partner with the private sector in entities such as the Energy Services Company to implement Article 12 of the Law on Elimination of barriers to production. Special legal provisions should be foreseen for dealing with contractual issues that can arise in contracts related to Article 12.
