Izinzuzo ezintathu zamasistimu okugcina amandla amahhotela

Abanikazi bamahhotela abakwazi nje ukukushalazela ukusebenzisa kwabo amandla.Eqinisweni, embikweni ka-2022 onesihloko esithi “Amahhotela: Uhlolojikelele Lokusebenzisa Amandla Namathuba Okusebenzisa Amandla Kahle,” I-Energy Star ithole ukuthi, ngokwesilinganiso, ihhotela laseMelika lichitha u-$2,196 ngekamelo unyaka ngamunye ezindlekweni zamandla.Ngaphezu kwalezo zindleko zansuku zonke, ukucisha kukagesi okunwetshiwe kanye nezimo zezulu ezimbi kakhulu kungase kukhubaze ibhalansi yehhotela.Khonamanjalo, ukugxila okwengeziwe ekusimameni kokubili izivakashi nakuhulumeni kusho ukuthi izinqubo eziluhlaza ayiseyona into “enhle ukuba nayo.”Zibalulekile empumelelweni yesikhathi esizayo yehhotela.

Enye indlela abanikazi bamahhotela abangabhekana ngayo nezinselele zabo zamandla ukufaka ibhethri elisekelweuhlelo lokugcina amandla, idivayisi egcina amandla ebhethrini elikhulu ukuze isetshenziswe kamuva.Amayunithi amaningi e-ESS asebenza ngamandla avuselelekayo, njengelanga noma umoya, futhi anikezela ngamakhono okulondoloza ahlukahlukene angalinganiswa kusayizi wehhotela.I-ESS ingahlanganiswa nesistimu yelanga ekhona noma ixhunywe ngqo kugridi.

Nazi izindlela ezintathu i-ESS engasiza ngazo amahhotela ukubhekana nezinkinga zamandla.

1. Yehlisa Izikweletu Zamandla

I-Business 101 isitshela ukuthi kunezindlela ezimbili zokuzuza kakhulu: ukwandisa imali engenayo noma ukunciphisa izindleko.I-ESS isiza kulokhu kwakamuva ngokugcina amandla aqoqwe ukuze asetshenziswe kamuva ngezikhathi eziphakeme kakhulu.Lokhu kungase kube lula njengokugcina amandla elanga phakathi namahora asekuseni anelanga ukuze uwasebenzise ngesikhathi sokugijima kwakusihlwa noma ukusebenzisa amandla aphansi aphansi phakathi nobusuku ukuze ube namandla engeziwe atholakalayo ekuhlinzeni kwantambama.Kuzo zombili izibonelo, ngokushintshela kumandla alondoloziwe ngezikhathi lapho izindleko zegridi ziphakeme kakhulu, abanikazi bamahhotela banganciphisa ngokushesha leyo bhili yamandla engu-$2,200 esetshenziswa ngonyaka ngekamelo ngalinye.

Yilapho inani langempela le-ESS liza khona ukuze lidlale.Ngokungafani nezinye izinto ezinjengamajeneretha noma izibani eziphuthumayo ezithengwa ngethemba lokuthi ngeke zisetshenziswe, i-ESS ithengwa ngombono wokuthi isetshenzisiwe futhi iqala ukukukhokhela ngokushesha.Esikhundleni sokubuza umbuzo othi, “Kuzobiza malini lokhu?”Umbiko we-Energy Star oshiwo ngaphambilini uphinde uthi amahhotela achitha cishe amaphesenti angu-6 ezindleko zawo zokusebenza kumandla.Uma lelo nani lingancishiswa ngisho nangephesenti elilodwa nje kuphela, ingabe lokho kuyosho inzuzo enkulu kangakanani emqondweni wehhotela?

2. Amandla eSipele

Ukuphela kukagesi kuyiphupho elibi kubanikazi bamahhotela.Ngokungeziwe ekudaleni izimo ezingaphephile nezingajabulisi zezivakashi (okungaholela ekubuyekezweni okubi kakhulu kanye nezinkinga zokuphepha zesivakashi nesayithi zibe zimbi kakhulu), ukucisha kungase kuthinte yonke into kusukela kumalambu namakheshi kuya ezinhlelweni zebhizinisi ezibalulekile kanye nezinto zikagesi zasekhishini.Ukuvalwa okunwetshiwe njengoba sakubona ku-Northeast Blackout ka-2003 kungavala ihhotela izinsuku, amasonto noma—kwezinye izimo—ngokuhle.

Manje, izindaba ezinhle ukuthi sesihambe ibanga elide kule minyaka engu-20 edlule, futhi sisekela amandla amahhotela manje adingwa yi-International Code Council.Kodwa nakuba amajeneretha edizili bekuyisixazululo esikhethiwe ngokomlando, avame ukuba nomsindo, akhiphe i-carbon monoxide, adinga izindleko eziqhubekayo zikaphethiloli nokulungiswa okuvamile futhi angakwazi ukunika amandla indawo encane kuphela ngesikhathi.

I-ESS, ngaphezu kokugwema izinkinga eziningi ezivamile zamajeneretha edizili eziphawulwe ngenhla, ingaba namayunithi amane okuhweba apakishwe ndawonye, ​​anikeze ama-kilowatt angu-1,000 wamandla agciniwe ukuze asetshenziswe phakathi nokucima kukagesi okunwetshiwe.Uma libhangqwe namandla elanga anele futhi livumelana nezimo ezifanele amandla atholakalayo, ihhotela lingagcina wonke amasistimu abalulekile esebenza, okuhlanganisa nezinhlelo zokuphepha, iziqandisi, i-inthanethi nezinhlelo zebhizinisi.Lapho lezo zinhlelo zebhizinisi zisasebenza endaweni yokudlela yasehhotela nebha, ihhotela lingakwazi ukunakekela noma ngisho nokwandisa imali engenayo ngesikhathi sokungasebenzi.

3. Imikhuba Eluhlaza

Ngokugxila okwandayo ezenzweni zebhizinisi ezisimeme ezivela ezivakashini nasezikhungweni zikahulumeni, i-ESS ingaba yingxenye enkulu yohambo lwehhotela oluya ekusaseni eliluhlaza ngokugxila kakhulu emithonjeni yamandla avuselelekayo njengelanga nomoya (ngamandla ansuku zonke) kanye nokuncika ekuthembeleni kumafutha ezinto ezimbiwa phansi. (ngamandla ekhophi yasenqolobaneni).

Akukhona nje kuphela ukuthi into elungile yokwenza imvelo, kodwa kunezinzuzo ezibonakalayo kubanikazi bamahhotela futhi.Ukufakwa kuhlu “njengehhotela eliluhlaza” kungaholela ethrafikhini eyengeziwe evela kubahambi abagxile ngokuzinzile.Futhi, izinqubo zebhizinisi eziluhlaza ngokuvamile zisiza ukwehlisa izindleko kanye nokusebenzisa amanzi amancane, amandla amancane aphezulu, kanye namakhemikhali angalimaza kakhulu imvelo.

Kukhona ngisho nezinzuzo zezwe kanye nezombuso ezixhumene nezinhlelo zokugcina amandla.I-Inflation Reduction Act, ngokwesibonelo, yethule ithuba lezikweletu zentela yenzuzo ngonyaka ka-2032, futhi abanikazi bamahhotela bangafuna kufika ku-$5 ngonyawo lwesikwele ukuze kudonswe amandla amabhilidi ezonga amandla uma bengabanikazi bebhilidi noma indawo.Ezingeni lesifundazwe, e-California, uhlelo lwe-PG&E lwe-Hospitality Money-Back Solutions lunikeza izaphulelo kanye nemihlomulo yezixazululo zangaphambili nezasemuva ezihlanganisa amajeneretha kanye ne-ESS yebhethri ngesikhathi salokhu kushicilelwa.ESifundazweni SaseNew York, Uhlelo Lwebhizinisi Olukhulu Lwegridi Kazwelonke lukhuthaza izixazululo zokonga amandla kumabhizinisi ezentengiso.

Indaba Zamandla

Abanikazi bamahhotela abanakho ukunethezeka kokunaka ukusebenzisa kwabo amandla.Ngokukhuphuka kwezindleko kanye nezidingo ezikhulayo zokusimama, amahhotela kufanele acabangele indawo yawo yamandla.Ngenhlanhla, amasistimu okugcina amandla azosiza ukunciphisa izikweletu zamandla, anikeze amandla okulondoloza amasistimu abalulekile, futhi aqhubekele kuzinqubo zebhizinisi eziluhlaza.Futhi lokho kuwukunethezeka sonke esingakujabulela.
