[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Lotte Super announced on the 1st that it is promoting a project to install doors on refrigerated showcases for dairy products, tofu, and bean sprouts at 166 stores in collaboration with the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety and Kepco ES.

Once the refrigerator door installation is completed, Lotte Super is estimated to reduce electricity consumption by 2,785 MWh annually. This accounts for about 40% of the existing electricity usage of the refrigerators and is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 1,295 tons per year.

Since last year, Lotte Super has independently installed doors on refrigerated showcases for seafood and livestock products, completing installations at 62 stores to date.

Nam Chang-hee, CEO of Lotte Super, said, “Food safety, energy consumption reduction, and carbon emission reduction are issues directly related to the daily lives and future of the public, so we intend to actively promote this refrigerator door installation cooperation project,” adding, “We will pursue sustainable management activities along with continuous interest in eco-friendly initiatives.”
