France orders air-conditioned shops to save energy by shutting doors

According to the report of a foreign news agency, the French government has made important decisions to save energy, according to which the shops that use air conditioning have been ordered to keep the doors of the shop closed when using the air conditioning, and on this order, Fines have been ordered to be imposed on those who do not comply.

According to reports, these laws were already in effect in some areas of France, but now the Minister of Energy has announced that these laws will be enforced across the country.

Energy prices in Europe have risen since the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia.

According to media reports, a fine of 750 euros will be imposed on the shops that do not follow the rules related to air conditioning.

The Minister of Energy said that it is unreasonable to keep the doors of vehicles open while using the air conditioner.
