Hotel pilot programme – Green AC&DC Energy™
A practical, data-driven programme for reducing electricity consumption in hotels – guest rooms, kitchens, laundry, wellness and common areas – without compromising comfort or service quality.
Instead of isolated, one-off measures, the programme uses the Δ-Indicator™ / ΔE* methodology to create a clear, phased roadmap: from an initial pilot in one hotel to a scalable model for an entire hotel group or portfolio.
Turn your hotel into a data-driven energy-efficiency pilot
Start with one or a few properties, measure the savings, and build a long-term plan for lower electricity bills – without reducing guest comfort.
Green AC&DC Energy™ is a methodological programme that connects energy savings with better quality of living. In hotels, this means replacing inefficient equipment and optimising operation in guest rooms, kitchens, back-of-house and cold-chain – guided by Δ-Indicator™ / ΔE* and transparent kWh, € and CO₂ indicators.
On this page, you can see the main benefits and structure of the hotel pilot. If you want a full, step-by-step description with numerical examples and form details, you can open the detailed page.

Learn how the Green AC&DC Energy™ hotel pilot works in detail – from data collection and ΔE* baseline to implementation, measurement and a 100-room example.
Why hotels are an ideal sector
Hotels combine 24/7 operation, comfort-sensitive guests and a mix of technical systems: room equipment, commercial kitchens, laundry, pools, wellness areas and conference facilities. This creates both a challenge and an opportunity:
- many electricity loads run continuously or for long hours,
- small improvements in power (kW) can translate into large annual savings (kWh and €),
- results are easy to replicate across similar properties in the same group.
Green AC&DC Energy™ is designed exactly for this context – to connect technical measures with transparent savings indicators and a clear story for management, investors and guests.
What your hotel receives from the pilot
- Clear baseline and indicative savings – ΔE* results in kWh/year and €/year for the pilot hotel.
- Phased technical roadmap – which measures to implement first, and which are suitable for later phases.
- Replicable model – a template that can be applied to other hotels in the same group.
- Support for ESCO models – a methodology that can be combined with ESCO contracts and financing.
- Technical basis for funding applications – the pilot can serve as a reference case and evidence for applications for non-refundable funds (national schemes, EU programmes such as LIFE and Horizon Europe).
Typical areas we analyse in a hotel
Each hotel is different. In the pilot, we focus on areas with the highest impact and shortest payback:
- Guest rooms: minibars, kettles, TVs, standby loads, room temperature settings and controls.
- Hotel kitchens: dishwashers, refrigeration, cooking equipment, exhaust systems and operating hours.
- Cold-chain & bars: display fridges, storage rooms, ice machines and bar equipment.
- Common areas & back-of-house: lighting, ventilation, office IT loads, technical rooms.
- Building envelope & schedules: where relevant, basic review of operating schedules and set-points.
The result is a list of practical measures: which devices should be replaced first, which settings should be optimised and what effect this has on your yearly electricity consumption.

Next step: send us your hotel details
If you manage one hotel, a small group or a larger chain, we can adapt the pilot concept to your situation. The quickest way to start is to send us the basic information using the form below.
After we review your data, we will come back with an initial estimation of potential savings and a proposal how a Green AC&DC Energy™ pilot could be implemented in your property – in phases and without immediate large investments.
