Hi K.AK

You can actually reduce the atom and perform it with PBC, in CP2K it will 
be at CELL section. If you look at the input template of CP2K it will be 
CP2K_INPUT <https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT.html> / 
FORCE_EVAL 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL.html> / 
SUBSYS 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS.html>
 / CELL 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/CELL.html>

please refer to cp2k input file 
here https://manual.cp2k.org/cp2k-8_1-branch/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/CELL.html#list_PERIODIC

how it help

Best
