Providing a great dining experience is only part of the challenge of running a profitable restaurant. Energy-intensive cooking, water heating, and sanitation services cause restaurants to use more energy per square foot than nearly every other commercial property type.
Fortunately, there are numerous options that managers can take to increase profitability:
- Energy-efficient equipment is available specifically for commercial kitchens
- Better operating procedures and staff decisions can reduce energy consumption
- Waste management “right sizing” can significantly reduce expenses
- Solar panels can generate electricity and heat water
The timing is ideal to take action:
- Capture time-sensitive incentives
- Hedge against rising energy costs
- Demonstrate environmental leadership
