Hotel Suggestion – Quality Hotel Sogndal
- The Quality Hotel has made significant efforts to reduce its climate-related footprint by focusing on energy efficiency and the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources.
- Specific energy use has been reduced by 50% through measures such as connecting to a local fjord heating network, renovating exterior walls, and installing better insulation.
- The hotel uses innovative technology, such as an advanced heat pump system that extracts energy from the fjord for space heating and hot water, and a fresh air system that preheats air intake in winter and cools fresh air in summer.
- The hotel has also been designed to utilize solar energy and cool fjord water for air cooling in the summer without the use of compressor-based cooling machines.
- The conference center is built into the ground with a green roof covered in sedum plants, which delays runoff and carries CO2 to the surroundings.
- Overall, the Quality Hotel has taken a sustainable approach to reduce its carbon footprint and promote environmental conservation.
