Electricity is one of the largest running costs for hotel operations. Heating, ventilation, hot water, lighting, laundry, kitchens, and common areas are operational around the clock – while occupancy can vary significantly throughout the year. Despite this, many hotels have electricity contracts that have never been analysed or compared based on the business's actual needs.
Hotels differ from many other businesses due to their continuous energy use and distinct seasonal variations. Guest occupancy, conferences, and weather significantly impact electricity costs.
