Description/achievement of initiative
Think Planet is Rezidor's ambitious energy saving programme which targets a 25% reduction of the energy consumption in our 327 hotels. It focuses on innovative energy saving investments and operations
Implementation methodologies
Think Planet will be realized by:
- focusing on energy saving investments with an ROI of maximum 7 years
- employee and guest engagement in energy saving actions
- purchasing synergies
All hotels have received a technical Think Planet Energy Action Plan, based on which they will define their 5 priority actions.
The staff is engaged by back-of-house communications and a Think Planet webquiz on energy. The hotels are also competing against each other to maximise savings. The hotels with the biggest energy savings will receive a foldable bicycle for all the staff.
Think Planet has its own brand and logo. Lumi, the firefly is Think Planet’s mascot.
