      14. The energy producing organization ensures that the power plant is connected to the automatic frequency and power control system in accordance with the technical specifications issued by the system operator.

      15. The energy producing organization provides a regulation range of the power plant connected to the automatic frequency and power control system in the amount of at least twenty percent of the installed capacity for loading or unloading.

      16. The power plant, connected to the automatic frequency and power control system, provides a change in the entire regulation range in a time not exceeding 5 minutes.

      17. The number of cycles of changes in the generation power within the regulation range of the power plant is not limited.
