n Energy Management Systems (EMS) EMS platforms allow real-time monitoring and control of energy consumption across hotel facilities. By combining IoT sensors with AI-driven analytics, these systems optimise energy distribution, reduce demand peaks and maximise operational efficiency. They can also integrate renewable sources such as solar panels and battery storage. n Renewable energy and energy storage Integrating renewable sources — solar, geothermal or hybrid systems — reduces dependence on fossil fuels. Smart storage solutions reduce energy use, cut costs and enhance the stability of power supply. n Integrated hotel management platforms Property Management Systems (PMS) equipped with energy-efficiency modules bring together all these technologies in a single platform, enabling data-driven

n Automated climate and ventilation control Artificial intelligence-based climate systems automatically adjust temperature according to occupancy and external weather conditions. Smart thermostats and connected HVAC systems can reduce energy consumption by up to 30% compared with conventional systems. n Advanced water management Water consumption in hotels is considerable, given demand across guest rooms, kitchens, laundries and leisure areas. Smart taps and showers, leak- detection sensors, and water-recycling systems can reduce water usage by up to 50%. Rainwater harvesting, greywater reuse, and intelligent monitoring systems optimise the use of this vital resource without compromising the guest experience.
