* Potential Energy
Saving in Hotels
* Energy Audit
Page 3
An energy audit is the firs t step to determine how much energy your business con-
sumes and evaluate the steps to take to make the property more energy efficient. An
energy audit provides the operator wit h the framework needed to establish or improve
energy management . It also provides a baseline for savi ng money and energy over
time when corrected.
The audit of energy consumption is a specialized process. It takes thorough knowl-
edge and expertise in multiple fields to estimate design, commission and perfonnance
moni tor projects for energy conservation. There are few fundamental ways of saving
energy:
../ Accurate monitoring of the ut ilities in the plant or building
J Reduction in the amount of energy requi red for the generation and use of the utility
../ Trapping of any unused energy
../ Recycli ng and reusc ofencrgy
By implementing these principles, we help energy intensive industries and buildings
to effectively manage energy consumption, and thereby enabling a reduction in over
all energy costs, making operations more compet itive, increasing product ivity and
overall profitability.

* Energy Conservation Program Steps
Energy Savings can be achieved in most of the hotel's energy systems, however, practi-
cal experience showed that lighting, air conditioning, heati ng and other auxiliary systems
consume 80-90% of the energy. We at 3E/ECOSOLjoined team would be glad to do a pre-
liminary investigation of your hotel or fac ility and tell you how much you can save and
where, and what are energy related problems or deficiencies you might have and how you
can solve them. Once you have the preliminary assessment outcomes, you the Hotel Man-
agement would be able to take the right decisions. Contact us asking about the FREE
Energy Saving/Green Assessment (Pre-audit) to be able to serve you in the best way.

* Water Audit
Water auditi ng is a pract ical smart ap-
proach for quanti fying water consumption,
water fl ow and water needs in order to reduce
water consumpti on alongside saving your
money.
3EIECOSOL has an extensive experi-
ence in auditing and implementing water
saving projects to help you to save more
water withaUi compromis ing your comfon or
process. The following presents methods to
reduce energy use for domestic hot water:
1. Adjusting the temperature of the hot water
inside the storage tanks at 50 C" not more. By
doing so, energy usage reduces by 3-6%.
2. Using Separate boilers for the domesti c
water usage and the domestic water for space
heating. (i f applicable).
3. Using the solar Energy to provide the
Hotels with part of their need of hot water.
Solar thermal systems considered 10 be the
most mature technology among the renewa-
ble energy sources. Using Solar system for
hot water can save more than 40% of the
energy used to heat water annually.
4. Using Aerators on water taps is
not only going to reduce the water
usage but also to reduce the energy
consumed to heat the water.

Why would I want
to build this green building?
TENANT ..it.
Why would I
to tease this green building?
Green buildings address various criteria to
meet the above objective, support the environ-
mental aspects for buildings and reduce their
negative Impact on the Ecosystem by:
Sustainable Site Planning.
Safeguarding Energy and Water.
Conservation of materials and Natural re-
sources.
Special Construction practices.
Indoor environmental quality.
Green Building Facts:
Green Buildings can be done for no addition-
al cost
Initial premium costs are project specific
Green buildings average only a 2-3% in-
crease in costs, but can be done for the same
budget as traditional buildings with profession-
al Design and planning
Savings from green buildings are more than
your capital investment which mean quick
return on your investment.
Design Fees may be higher but project costs
will be reduced

" Renewable Energy
U sing a free source of energy to sustain your business and to
reduce operation cost is very important with the increasing energy prices.
Empowering your business using the sun is a sustainable method to produce energy
and to reduce Co2 emissions to the atmosphere, furthermore, using alternative resourc-
es to produce energy is not a burden anymore but an investment.
In 3EIECOSOL we believe that hotels' operators can harness the sun power to supply
their facilities with a clean and free source of energy. The usage of renewable sources re-
duces the hotels energy bill and increases the hotels' system efficiency. An intensive
study will be conducted to ensure the most optimal and feasible system for your facility.
A- Photovoltaic (Electrical)
The solar photovoltaic systems which are commonly known as (PV systems), convert
the sun energy to readily usable electric power. Generally, PV systems can be a substan-
tial investment; hence 3EIECOSOL engineers will guide you through careful planning
to help you take the right decision to meet your individual needs.
3EIECOSOL can also design, supply and commission solar PV Projects on small and
large scale in cooperation with its international partners.

'" Hotel Comfort is Guaranteed!!
'" Project Financing.
In 3EIECOSOL we believe that flexibil-
ity is important, this is why we give our
clients the option to choose the best con-
tracting type that suits their needs and re-
quirements. In addition to the EPC pro-
jects, 3E\ECOSOL provides a variety of
options as the following:
Performance Contracting
3EIECOSOL performance contracting
provides a simple solution to a big chal-
lenge facing facilities managers today;
how to get the infrastructure upgrades
needed at a time when budgets are too
tight or non-existent. Energy Savings
Performance Contracting (ESPC) lever-
ages the cost savings from energy-effi-
$$$
cient equipment to provide the capital to
renew facilities and building systems.
Energy performance contracting is
budget neutral; it takes the money al- $$
ready spent on energy and uses it to get
the energy infrastructure upgrades
needed. $
Budget Neutral Infrastructure Upgrade
Energy-efficient retrofits provided by
3EIECOSOL energy services specialists
answer the question of how to manage
aging facility energy systems when finan-
cial pressure put capital out of reach.
Newer energy systems are more effi-
cient, which means the budget currently
allocated for utility payments can be
used to replace or retrofit existing infra-
structure. Lower annual energy costs pro-
vide the budget for the energy retrofit.
3E\ECOSOL's comprehensive energy
solutions range from boiler and chillers'
replacements to full facility develop-
ment. Phased energy efficient retrofits
do not interfere with daily operations
during the facility upgrade.

Building Type : Hotels - Five Star E E!ctricit 'l" (Os.t Fuel Cos,t (Dieselj
A five starts hotel located in Aqaba gulf in south
Jordan. The hotel consists of255 guest rooms and
several other facilities such as restaurants, cafe,
bar, terrace in addition to the external pools.
The hotel is electrically fed from the Electric Utili-
ty through three transformers each is 2500 KVA
supplying the whole hotel through three main dis-
tribution boards.
Energy Consumption:
Electricity Consumption: 9,262,697 KWh/Year
