During the period of restoration and stabilization of infrastructure facilities and in order to maintain the reliable operation of the Ukrainian energy system, from October 12, 2022, ATB Corporation will significantly reduce electricity consumption in all operating stores of the ATB retail network on a 24-hour basis.
First of all, this concerns the refusal to illuminate signs, boards, city lights, ceilings, etc. on the facade of shops and the lighting of the surrounding area. The company also refuses to illuminate racks, boxes, shelves in the sales hall and lighting of rooms not used by store employees.
Such a decision is a conscious response of the company as a socially responsible and patriotic business to the new challenges of wartime. Since the beginning of the full-scale military aggression, ATB Corporation has been at the forefront of the country's humanitarian front, providing the population with food and basic necessities as much as possible. Undoubtedly, joint support of the domestic energy front will help to survive critical periods, strengthen our unity and nullify hostile intentions.
It should be noted that the company has been modernizing the stores of the ATB retail chain since 2019. The updated "ATB" is a kind of experimental site where modern solutions in the field of retail trade, construction and energy saving have been implemented. New concept of ATB stores are equipped with the latest generation refrigeration and freezing equipment, the latest lighting system built on the basis of LED technologies, insulation, heating and energy recovery technologies have been implemented, which reduce heating costs by up to 70%.
