Centro Capital Centre and Capital Centre Arjaan participate in Earth Hour 2018

 As part of Rotana Earth, the Global Corporate Sustainability Platform, Centro Capital Centre & Capital Centre Arjaan by Rotana in Abu Dhabi participated in the Earth Hour 2018 global campaign. Earth Hour, one of the world’s most important 60 minutes calls to action in the fight against climate change involves the participation of millions around the globe by switching off lights to shine a light on the need for climate action.

The hotels this year, participated in the campaign by not only switching off the lights. At Centro Capital Centre, we created an Earth hour information hub in the lobby. Key information about Energy Saving, Recycling and Climate change was strategically presented to our inhouse guests through stickers in the lobby which gave them essential information as they were proceeding with their check in procedure to the hotel. At Capital Centre Arjaan by Rotana we played the official Earth Hour Video in the hotel lobby during the one hour and had an audience of guests viewing the campaign.

In 2017, we are glad to share that at Centro Capital Centre through several energy and water saving initiatives we could save -

Energy – 22294 kilowatts (This energy can heat water in 425 guest rooms for a month!)

Water - 2087-meter cubes (This water is enough for 24 days’ supply in 90% occupancy)

For Earth hour both hotels collectively have saved over 164 Kilowatts per hour.

In this regard, General Manager Chadi Nicolas said, “Earth hour campaign is more than just switching off lights for an hour” he further added “We are glad to have implemented an information hub in our hotel lobby and were able to create a bigger awareness impact about the cause to our guests”
