Mövenpick Hotels and Resorts in the Middle East has joined the green revolution by embarking on a Green Globe Certification program which could see its annual carbon emissions cut by up to 150,000 tonnes.
Markus Oberlin, general manager of Farnek Avireal, the company that oversees the program in the Middle East, said: “Initially Mövenpick aims to certify 20% of its hotels by the end of next year and the rest of its international property portfolio by the end of 2013. All Mővenpick hotels will have access to our energy benchmark auditing system which uses internet based software ‘hotel-optimiser’ to calculate CO2 emissions.”
Many of the chief engineers of Mövenpick properties across the region have already been trained in implementing the technology at an intensive workshop in Cairo.
