In any case, the poor performance of the sector from an environmental point of view “should further strengthen the motivation of stakeholders to improve.
According to Vincent Bryant, engineer and co-founder of Deepki, “this unique increase is representative of the resumption of activity experienced by the hotel sector in 2022, after the Covid 19 slump. Hotel buildings saw their energy consumption increase by 5.3% compared to 2021. Of the five sectors analyzed in Europe, the only one to consume more energy is the hotel industry. And while the conclusions show an encouraging improvement, there is still a long way to go to achieve the goal of zero carbon emissions in 2050.
It gives the value of energy consumption and CO2 emissions for the average of buildings as well as the 15% and the 30% most efficient, for different typologies of the commercial real estate sector (offices, health, housing, commerce, hotels and logistics) in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Benelux, Italy and Spain. This is the second edition of this market study, the first European benchmark accessible to the public measuring the environmental performance of real estate with real data. In 2022, the average energy consumption of French buildings has fallen in most sectors, reveals Deepki's 2023 EGS index, revealed exclusively by Le Figaro. In the school of energy sobriety, real estate rarely figures first.
