01 Our green energy investments

From the sun in Afyon İhsaniye
to the future.

Renewable energy lies at the heart of our vision for a more sustainable future. Through our solar energy investment in İhsaniye, Afyonkarahisar, we are creating long-term value by turning the power of the sun into clean energy.

This investment is not merely an answer to today’s energy needs; it is a tangible step towards a lower-carbon world for future generations.

Energy savings in water heating

Solar panels help us meet our water-heating needs more efficiently.

01

Lighting

We use only the light we need.

  • LEDs are used in 90% of our facility’s lighting, and we are working towards a complete LED transformation.
  • Motion-sensitive lighting is used in public and staff areas.
  • Outdoor lighting is controlled by timers.
  • Public areas are designed to make greater use of daylight.
02

Accommodation areas

Smart systems manage energy in our rooms.

  • Systems deactivate heating and cooling equipment when a balcony door is opened.
  • Electronic energy cards are used in every room.
  • We prefer LED televisions and position minibars away from heat sources.
  • Curtains in vacant rooms are adjusted seasonally to reduce climate-control demand.
03

Efficient operations

We reduce energy loss at its source.

  • We choose energy-efficient, environmentally responsible equipment and technologies.
  • Regular maintenance and cleaning of electronic equipment help minimise energy losses.
  • Seals on cold rooms, deep freezers and refrigerators are checked regularly and replaced when worn.
  • Dishwashers, washing machines and dryers are not operated until fully loaded.
04

Renewable energy and monitoring

We measure consumption and advance together.

  • We use solar panels and achieve 70% energy savings in our water-heating system.
  • Energy consumption is recorded and monitored monthly and annually.
  • We train our employees in conservation measures and inform our guests about our practices.
We treat efficiency not as a one-off target, but as a way of working that we measure, improve and sustain together.

02 Water efficiency

We know the value
of every drop.

To protect the Mediterranean’s precious water resources, we aim to reduce consumption, improve efficiency and foster a shared culture of conservation.

01

Measure, monitor, improve

An approach that regularly monitors water consumption, identifies opportunities for efficiency and embraces continuous improvement.

02

Use only what is needed

Water-conscious operational practices and equipment choices designed around conservation.

03

Value every drop

An awareness-led approach that invites our employees and guests to share a common water culture.

Our practices in action

We use water more efficiently at every point of use.

From guest rooms and production areas to gardens and infrastructure, we regularly monitor nine practical measures designed to reduce water loss.

09practices

Guest rooms and public areas

We reduce consumption without compromising comfort.

  • Water-saving aerators are installed in all guest rooms and public areas.
  • All toilets are equipped with water-efficient dual-flush systems.
  • We favour shower enclosures over bathtubs to reduce water consumption.

Smart systems and monitoring

Technology helps us keep water use under control.

  • Sensor-operated taps and urinals are used throughout public areas.
  • Production areas use knee-operated, timed water systems.
  • Water consumption is monitored and recorded monthly and annually.

Gardens, infrastructure and awareness

We extend conservation across the entire property.

  • Drip and sprinkler irrigation systems help prevent water loss in our gardens.
  • Wastewater is connected to the sewerage system in accordance with discharge regulations.
  • We train our employees in water conservation and inform guests about our practices.

We see energy not merely as a resource to consume,

but as a responsibility we carry towards the future.
