Energy Cost Analysis
Estimated Annual Costs for a Typical U.S. Hotel:
Hotel International consumes about 564,324.23 kWh annually for its operation, with $146,173.30 spent on energy management. This figure highlights how energy expenses can severely affect a hotel’s budgets, especially in the highly competitive hotel environment.
Optimizing Energy Costs
By investing in an Energy Management System (EMS), real savings can be achieved. With advanced solutions for monitoring and optimizing consumption, Hotel International could reduce annual energy consumption by 309,814.00 kWh (or 45.1 percent less), resulting in annual economic savings of $82,003.22 (about 43.9 percent less).
Cost savings result not only from reduced direct energy consumption, achieved through intelligent management of room occupancy, but also from optimization of the HVAC system (reducing the need for device maintenance) and hotel-specific management of operating parameters (recovery time, setback setpoints, etc.)
In addition, the system constantly refines energy performance, reducing waste and increasing overall efficiency.
