Ibis Hotel
Overview
Following the successful completion of the Crowne Plaza project, Andras Hotel Group appointed Wilson Power and Energy Ltd. (WPE) to implement a solar energy solution at the Ibis Hotel in Riverside, Coleraine. The initiative aimed to enhance the hotel's sustainability by reducing overall energy consumption.
Project Details
Solar PV Installation: A 70kWp solar photovoltaic system was installed at the hotel.
Sustainability Goals: This installation was part of a broader strategy to lower energy costs and minimize the environmental impact of the hotel’s operations.
Benefits
24/7 Energy Usage: Hotels typically operate around the clock, making them ideal candidates for solar PV installations. The solar energy generated contributes directly to the hotel’s continuous energy needs, helping to offset grid consumption effectively.
Cost Efficiency: By harnessing solar energy, the hotel can reduce reliance on traditional energy sources, leading to significant cost savings on electricity bills over time.
Conclusion
The project at the Ibis Hotel showcases WPE’s commitment to delivering innovative and sustainable energy solutions tailored for the hospitality sector. By leveraging solar technology, the hotel is now better equipped to meet its energy demands while contributing positively to environmental sustainability. This project reflects a growing trend in the hotel industry towards adopting renewable energy alternatives, ensuring a more sustainable future for hospitality operations.
