Energy

40% of your energy bill cannot be justified. Yet.

28 January 2025 · BrigoControls

Every year the energy audit arrives. Bills are reviewed, ratios per room calculated, comparisons made with the previous year. The conclusion is always that there is room for improvement — but nobody knows exactly where.

The problem is not energy. It is invisibility.

A hotel consumes energy at dozens of different points: HVAC, pumping, domestic hot water, lighting, kitchens, laundry. The bill that arrives is the sum of all of it. One number. No detail.

Without measurement by room and by system, it is impossible to know whether pump room consumption is normal or 30% above expected. It is impossible to detect that the pool area air handling unit has been consuming double for weeks because of a blocked filter.

What changes when you have real data

With affordable monitoring of hotel technical installations, consumption stops being a number and becomes information. You know which room consumes what. You see deviations as they happen — not at month end when the bill has already arrived.

Hotels that have installed real monitoring report consumption reductions of 15–25% in the first year. Not by doing anything different. By knowing what they are doing.

The starting point

You do not need to monitor the entire hotel at once. Start with the technical room that consumes most or the one you control least. An affordable hotel installation control system like BrigoControls lets you start with one room and grow at your pace — without changing anything you already have.
