Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island
In line with Hilton’s commitment to halving its environmental footprint globally, the new Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island was built according to a sustainable design philosophy. Initiatives include an automated light control system for all public areas; roof solar panels to heat water; a Guest Room Management System (GRMS) to monitor energy use and with a view to minimising airconditioning consumption; and the installation of water restrictors on taps and showers to limit water flow, without affecting water pressure performance, reducing water consumption by more than 37 per cent. A specialised condensation system re-purposes guest room water and smart systems are in place to control hotel waste management. The hotel also has 12 designated electric charging stations for all types of electric cars.
