Hospitality

Create the perfect guest experience in your hotel with energy-efficient upgrades.

U.S. hotels spend almost $4 billion a year on energy costs, and that energy expense is the fastest-growing operating cost in the industry. The Sponsors of Mass Save offer financial incentives to make energy efficiency projects a reality so that businesses can start saving money, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve comfort for staff and guests.

4. Laundry Equipment Upgrades

The time and cost it can take a hotel to do laundry can seem daunting. Ozone systems and new, high-speed clothes washers have greater capacity and reduced drying times, meaning less money spent on energy. High-efficiency laundry equipment can use up to 50 percent less energy and water than conventional systems.
