Our approach to energy efficiency is based on two main fronts of action: • initiatives to reduce consumption at facilities, through the modernization of physical infrastructure and equipment, and awareness programs for our people and customers; • actions focused on increasing energy consumption from renewable sources. We maintain 100% of our lighting with LED bulbs and continued to implement current optimizers, which control the electrical energy consumption of pharmacies, identifying and reducing energy waste. The program to replace air conditioning equipment with the “inverter” model continues to expand and, to date, 78% of pharmacies already have the technology with lower energy consumption. Over the year, these actions resulted in an average 18% reduction in total consumption across the network of pharmacies.
