Green Buildings | Deutsche Hospitality

Emissions

We are taking action against climate change. Our aim and objective: to make our company climate-neutral by 2050. In doing so, we are focusing not only on carbon dioxide, but also including all gases that are harmful to the climate. We are pursuing long-term and scientifically sound reduction targets along the lines of the Science Based Targets Initiative.

Natural resources

We are working to use natural resources sustainably – along our entire value-creation chain. Already today, the entire electrical power for our leasehold and management hotels in Germany and Austria comes from renewable energy sources. We want to achieve this globally by 2035 as well. We are also planning to continuously reduce our energy and water consumption down to 2030 through energy efficiency measures and by leveraging water-saving technology.

Buildings and processes

We are designing both our hotels and our internal processes to be more sustainable. External audits and independent certifications help us in this endeavor. For example, our leasehold and management hotels are certified according to the requirements set out in our CSR management system by means of third-party audits. We have also been a member of the German Sustainable Building Council (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen) since 2019.
