Shopping Centers in Caracas join energy saving plan
Cavececo reported that several shopping centers in Caracas have launched an energy saving plan in response to the country's economic crisis. This plan includes restricted hours for escalators and a reduction in the number of elevators in operation, among other measures
The increasingly frequent power outages have led the Venezuelan government to propose scheduled rationing. Shopping centers in Caracas, grouped under the Venezuelan Chamber of Shopping Centers (Cavececo), announced an energy saving plan.
In this regard, while maintaining the usual level of service for customers, several shopping centers are implementing escalator shutdown schedules, particularly between 1:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
They are also implementing one-way operation of these escalators; that is, going up or down, but only in one direction.
On the other hand, a complete shutdown of the electrical system is implemented for between 12 and 14 continuous hours, from closing time until opening the following day.
Elevator use is also restricted, as shopping centers are keeping a reduced number of elevators operational to achieve significant energy savings.
Some of the shopping centers that have announced this measure are: Santa Fe, San Ignacio, Centro Ciudad Comercial Tamanaco (CCCT), and Galerías Prados del Este.
