Hotel guests zum Energiesparen motivates – Universität Innsbruck

Insgesamt seien für die Studie – die in August in de renommierten Fachzeitschaft „Tourism Management“ erschienen – 600 Personen be fragmented online, erklärte der am Institut für Finanzwissenschaft der Universität Innsbruck tätige Researcher. Over the years, these fragments have been placed in a Winter Urlaub in Österreich. In October 2022 and March 2023, energiesparma nahmen will be set in hotels, whereby fictional hotels will be rewarded with undamaged jewelry and the jewelery of the energiesparma nahmen abgefragt-wurde.

Lower Zimmertemperatur, lower temperatures

Next to “price reductions” – 21 percent of the items were ready, a room temperature reduction of 22 to 20 degrees was achieved at a price reduction of 10 euros – even higher hotel-owned electricity equipment with photovoltaic systems, which uses eco-electricity, the guest tolerance while saving energy. Here the products are not so German: for 60 percent of the devices, a hotel with its own electricity and a maximum temperature of 20 degrees is attractive – or attractive – as a hotel with a maximum temperature of 22 degrees.

If a man has never said in 21 days that a “More guests” take their energy-saving measures, one must think that both factors are a “combination”, without Steiger. “The combination of eco-power and price reduction is seen as a good result”, as the scientist explains. If you think about it, the higher premiums – if you do not choose them for the hotel bill – are for a higher percentage of the Zustimmung-führten.

It is clear every now and then – almost as a “preface” to the study – that the absence of temperature in the hotel room is a subjective matter for guests “quickly reduces comfort”, so Steiger, who is studying together with four other people, penetrates and refines. “There is a problem that hoteliers often choose for their guests as a savings fund for savings”, says Steiger.

“Creative Solutions” fragmented

In general, his shortcomings are also called “creative solutions”, a guest at energy saving to “motivate friends”. “It is a priceless way of thinking, as another saver, the Duschzeit of guests is saved, whereby a playlist with four-minute jewels is displayed in a great way. It is wise to use a small hotel in Mallorca, when the laundry goes”, explains the researcher. Man has sought the stay in that time, now that it takes so long, that there is a song.

If you come across all those “solutions” to “individually accommodate the guest”, then it is not the case that the guest’s thriftiness is compensated. “Every guest is no longer suitable and the hotels have to earn their money, but the guests can receive a guest.” It is a good idea to “raise awareness” of the “guest facilities” and, in general, to the theme of energy, to “drive scaffolding out”.
