In today’s industry, energy efficiency and sustainability are high-priority demands for investors, guests and workers. In order to demonstrate a meaningful commitment to sustainability, hotel management teams must put environmental, social, and governance (ESG) strategies into motion — not just say they have a plan for them.
Leading hotels such as the Wynn Resorts, Las Vegas installed solar to reduce their utility bills by 75% with a fixed cost 10-year financing deal and The Ritz-Carlton, Charlotte was named the top eco-friendly hotel being LEED gold-certified and providing a series of sustainability features. Both of these hotels have reduced their operational costs and have seen an uptick in booking reservations, giving them a competitive edge in the market.
And let’s not forget Investors. Investors have become increasingly smart about how they invest by now using ESG criteria to evaluate their investments. In fact, according to Gartner, 85% of investors considered ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) factors in their investments in 2020. Guests are also demanding a clean, safe, and unique hotel experience delivered through sustainable means, and while workers are factoring sustainability efforts when considering employment opportunities.
To remain competitive and meet sustainability demands from investors, guests and workers, hotel owners must be able to not only plan but implement their ESG initiatives while operating as business as usual.
