Sustainable Development Programs

Making our world sustainable is our common responsibility. Dozens of projects fulfilling the aim of Triple Bottom Line of Economic Prosperity, Social Responsibility and Environmental Protection have made a difference locally, nationally and internationally.

At EcoGreenHotel, clients look to us both for our focused sustainability skills, as well as the credibility we bring in establishing trust with stakeholders and the wider public. Our programs help hotel businesses to reduce costs, operate sustainably, and improve health and safety, while also helping the environment. Is your company ready to assume greater responsibility? If so, we can help in the following areas:

  • Energy Efficiency Analysis & Implementation
  • Sustainable Development Analysis & Strategy Implementation
  • Training & Education
  • Green Marketing

Performance indicators (ROI, RevPar, etc) weave the very fabric of hospitality industry dialogue, assessment, and decision-making. The metrics of sustainability are effective when they can drive home the value they represent or direct financial link in addition to ensuring program continuity and strategic future planning. The real benefits start to surface when a hotel business can measure the effectiveness of the dollar amount spent on sustainability-related programs.

 

First Stop: Energy Efficiency Analysis & Implementation

Building a cleaner, more efficient and sustainable energy future.

EcoGreenHotel Sustainability Professional will conduct an Energy Efficiency Analysis of your property. This first level program is our recommended starting point for hotels that are just starting to take initiatives to go green.

EcoGreenHotel Sustainability Services offers a holistic approach designed to support green and sustainable initiatives. Our Energy Efficiency Analysis will present opportunities for your property to take advantage of cost savings, energy efficiency, and environmentally sound initiatives.

We’ve found that there is a direct correlation between energy efficiency and the bottom line. Hotels are constantly faced with the dilemma of finding new ways to reduce costs without compromising services. What better way to fund your hotel’s green initiatives then by starting it off on the right foot by being energy efficient? Hotels have the potential to achieve cost savings that will continue over time and free up operating and maintenance resources. In return these savings can help your hotel fund its Sustainability Development Strategy. It’s a win-win situation!

Next Stop: Sustainable Development Analysis & Strategy Implementation 

The next step for hotel businesses is to access their current position when it comes to business practices. Management should know the degree to which the company’s activities line up with sustainable development business operations. This requires evaluating the hotel’s overall strategy, the performance of specific operations in each department (housekeeping, front desk, food and beverage, etc), and the effect of particular activities.
