Our report presents the results of the energy audits carried out as part of themeddle stage of the ISO 50001 Energy Efficiency compliance activities.
The following general six stage energy audit approach was employed:
• Preliminary data gathering (before site visit)• Preliminary analysis / desk audit (before site visit)• Site survey• Analysis• Further investigations• Final analysis and reporting
A number of energy efficiency opportunities with varying payback periods wereidentified during the assessment.
Cost savings of approximately EUR 600.000 /yr are possible through measuresthat have a short payback period and represent mayor energy and water savings.

The total energy yearly use is approximately 29.84 GWh/yr.
Approximately 40% of the energy use is related to Natural Gas (used for spaceand water heating.)
The electricity & gas is it not separately sub metered. For this reason it was necessary to develop the energy usage through a combination of temporary sub metering, spot measurements and spreadsheet calculations.

The hotels can be seen as the architectural combination of three distinct zones,all serving distinctly different purposes.
The energy flows occurring in these three areas are very different, and need to behandled accordingly.Sub metering is advised to all the hotels in the following areas accordingly:
• Sub metering – Electricity – Water – Heating N1: Total Guest Rooms, lobby, corridors
• Sub metering – Electricity – Water – Heating N2: Kitchen
• Sub metering – Electricity – Water – Heating N3: Restaurants
• Sub metering – Electricity – Water – Heating N4: Spa (if it is applicable)
• Sub metering – Electricity – Water – Heating N5: Meeting Facilities (if it is applicable)
Non or Low investment Actions = Simple short term payback
