The Effect of Green Energy Use on Profitability in Hospitality Organizatıons The Perspective of Saving Energy Costs

Abstract

Although profit is often regarded as the primary reason for the existence of businesses, sustainability is, in fact, the most critical factor ensuring their long-term survival. With the growing environmental awareness worldwide, businesses are placing greater emphasis on environmental protection initiatives and aligning their production processes accordingly. In this context, efforts to use limited resources efficiently have led to the widespread adoption of practices aimed at environmental protection and energy conservation in daily life. These efforts have also resulted in the implementation of more effective energy efficiency solutions in the accommodation sector, as in many other industries. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the potential savings that can be achieved by reducing energy consumption and resource waste through environmentally friendly practices. To this end, scenarios were developed for the installation of 200 Wh, 250 Wh, and 1000 Wh solar panels on the roof of an accommodation facility. The results of these scenarios indicate that installing 200 Wh solar panels on the roof can meet approximately 7.46% of the energy consumed; installing 250 Wh solar panels can meet approximately 9.32% of the energy consumed; and installing 1000 Wh solar panels can provide 37.3% of the average energy consumption.
