It provides optimization by centrally controlling cooling, air conditioning and lighting systems to save electricity. They are working to reduce not only their own operations but also their indirect impacts. It circulates cold water in the store cabinets instead of gas. This system, patented by Migros, which uses gas only to cool the water and which it has started to spread in its stores, prevents gas leakage by 99 percent.
