2016 Water Innovation Award- Grand Hyatt Buckhead

 

Water Innovation Award

In 2013, Grand Hyatt Buckhead installed a rainwater catchment system that has resulted in a savings of $30,000 per year.  The hotel upgraded showerheads and toilets in 2015 that is expected to pay for itself in less than a year.  Most recently, the Grand Hyatt was the first hotel in the country to heat all of its hot water using solar thermal panels.  This project alone is expected to reduce the building’s gas consumption by 27%!
