An energy-intensive industry

It’s no secret that the hospitality industry is particularly energy-hungry. The average energy consumption of a collective accommodation is 234 kWh/m² according to ADEME. In France alone, there are over 22 million m² of hotels and guesthouses, which quickly drives up the energy bill.

Among these simple actions, for instance, reducing the temperature by one or two degrees can lead to up to a…
