Autonomous Energy worked with The Westin Sydney, located in the historic Sydney GPO, throughout 2012 and 2013 to design and supply state-of-the-art, energy efficient LED lighting in order to reduce the energy consumption of the hotel. Whilst guest experience is the most important goal for The Westin, there is an understanding that energy continues to be a fast-growing cost in the hotel industry. There are significant opportunities for hotels to reduce costs and improve profitability, which reducing environmental impact.
As part of this project Autonomous Energy unlocked the value of the Energy Saving Certificates that the energy efficiency upgrades at The Westin were eligible to generate. These certificates helped to incentivise investing in an upgrade that will continue to save The Westin energy in the years to come.
