The Administrative offices house both the management team and managerial staff like General Manager, Secretaries etc. The computer systems with high technology installed in offices increases the consumption of energy. The central heating and air conditioning systems in the hotels areas also consume a lot of energy. If an analysis is done, we would find that in most of the cases energy consumption is unnecessary and inefficient. Mostly, what lacks is an energy saving program in various departments in hotels. Internal controls in the hotels are not taken care of and importance is given to customer satisfaction and hotel service quality.

To save energy and resources, an effective energy management program or system is a must to implement. For example: Lightning control system as people forget to switch off lights very often. Ecogreen provides you with some more energy management ideas that can be implemented:

• Do not use artificial lighting in offices when the natural light is sufficient

• Open draperies and raise shades whenever adequate light from windows is available

• Use energy-saving fluorescent lights and lamps

• Switch off lights and appliances in unoccupied offices

• Turn off the bathroom's fan and lights whenever they are not occupied

• Install the light sensors to remind and educate office users about wasted light

• Use rechargeable batteries for calculators and other office devices

• Turn off computers that are not used, and utilized computer's energy/power management tools ( i.e. sleep mode, hibernate mode, screen saver)

• Reduce the use of lighting during night cleaning

• Arrange office meetings or conferences in the day time

• Keep office doors and windows closed if heating and air conditioning is on

• Purchase and use high efficiency office equipment and devices

• Set up a self-adult system for the office energy consumption

• Train and educate office employees to follow correct procedures of energy uses

Apart from all the above ideas for energy management, educating and training the office employees to follow correct procedures of energy use is a must.
