City Service strengthens operations in the field of optimising energy consumption and using renewable resources

Vilnius, Lithuania, 2011-06-27 08:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- City Service is
strengthening operations in the field of optimising energy consumption and
using renewable resources. Under a contract finalised with Palink, the company
started the implementation of an energy resource optimisation project that
covers most Iki shopping centres. 

‘The optimised lighting systems at 155 Iki shops will help save 30 percent of
electrical power and increase the lighting of the shopping centres by 20 to 30
percent', Gytis Janušauskas, head of the Novelties and Energy Efficiency Group
of City Service, said. 

By June of this year, City Service specialists will replace in Iki shopping
centres almost 40,000 traditional lamps with new technology lamps. 

This step will enable the consumption of electrical power to be reduced by
approximately 16,000 kilowatt/hours per day. Furthermore, the emission of
carbon dioxide due to the production of electrical power will decrease by over
3,500 tonnes per year. 

With a view to finding the most efficient technical solution, City Service
specialists have dedicated 6 months to the testing of various lighting
technologies, measurements, and applied research at one of Iki shopping centre. 

‘This solution, which helps save energy costs and is environmentally friendly,
when implemented at shopping centres, will pay for itself in less than 1 year',
Mr Janušauskas said. 

According to him, the service to increase the efficiency of the consumption of
energy resources is of great relevance to companies managing shopping centres,
warehouses, factories, and business centres. ‘Our solutions allow increasing
the efficiency of not only electrical power consumption but also thermal energy
and gas consumption', Mr Janušauskas added. 

City Service group companies operate in Lithuania, Latvia, Russia, and Ukraine.
The total area of buildings managed by the group equals almost 18 million sq.
m. City Service shares are listed on the Official List of the Vilnius Stock
