Energy
Less and less but cleaner and cleaner! This is the motto that inspires the Splendide every day when talking about energy, one of the driving forces of its sustainability project. In all hotel sectors, the trend is leading towards a reduction in energy consumption and requirements. Part of the Splendide’s renovation project, which is redesigning the hotel structure and its environmental impact, involves the provision of solar panel systems, as well the ecological optimisation of the building’s historical environments thanks to interventions that enhance and improve the energy efficiency. To date, the RECS (Renewable Energy Certificate System) certification provided by the European Energy Certificate System has sanctioned 100% of energy production from hydrological renewable sources exclusively from Switzerland.
Since 2016, the hotel has participated in SwissEnergy, a programme that brings together voluntary measures that help to implement the national energy strategy under one roof.
Various machinery, devices and systems have already been replaced with more energy-efficient models. The fast charging station for electric vehicles has been activated, as an incentive to use new generation cars. The Splendide, for its part, has already started a programme to create an electric vehicle fleet, replacing the current ones.
