How AI and automation can support sustainable hotel operations

AI will quietly transform sustainability in the hospitality industry, bringing subtle improvements behind the scenes rather than making a grand entrance

It's interesting to note that the excitement surrounding AI's growing role in the hospitality industry doesn't match how commonplace its applications will become in the future. While AI is indeed a disruptive tool for sustainability, its most significant impact will likely not be in improving the guest experience or dynamic pricing, but rather in optimizing sustainable practices.

Key takeaways

• AI can improve energy efficiency in ways that guests may not even notice, but it can have a significant impact behind the scenes. By continuously monitoring and adjusting lighting, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning based on real-time data, AI can significantly reduce a property's carbon footprint without compromising comfort;
• Over time, these small improvements add up to significant cost savings and a reduced environmental footprint;
• The benefit of implementing AI in the hospitality industry for sustainable operations is that it works seamlessly in the background, requiring no additional thought on the part of guests as everything is automated.
