Abanini beehotele abanakukuhoya ukusebenzisa kwabo amandla.Ngapha koko, kwingxelo ka-2022 enesihloko esithi “Iihotele: Isishwankathelo sokuSetyenziswa kwamandla kunye namaThuba oKusebenza koMbane,” I-Energy Star yafumanisa ukuba, ngokomyinge, ihotele yaseMerika ichitha ii-$2,196 ngegumbi ngonyaka ngamnye kwiindleko zamandla.Ngaphezulu kwezo ndleko zemihla ngemihla, ukucinywa kombane okwandisiweyo kunye neemeko zemozulu ezimandundu zinokukhubaza kwi-balance sheet yehotele.Ngeli xesha, ukonyuka kokugxila kuzinzo kuzo zombini iindwendwe kunye norhulumente kuthetha ukuba izenzo zohlaza ayiseyonto “emnandi ukuba nayo.”Ziyimfuneko kwimpumelelo yexesha elizayo yehotele.
Enye indlela abanini beehotele abanokujongana nemingeni yabo yamandla kukufakela ibhetri esekweinkqubo yokugcina amandla, isixhobo esigcina amandla kwibhetri enkulu ukuze sisetyenziswe kamva.Iiyunithi ezininzi ze-ESS zisebenza kumandla avuselelekayo, njengelanga okanye umoya, kwaye zibonelela ngezakhono ezahlukeneyo zokugcina ezinokulinganiswa kubungakanani behotele.I-ESS inokudibaniswa kunye nenkqubo yelanga ekhoyo okanye idibaniswe ngokuthe ngqo kwigridi.
Nazi iindlela ezintathu i-ESS enokunceda ngayo iihotele ukujongana nemiba yamandla.
1. Ukunciphisa iMithetho eYilwayo yaMandla
I-Business 101 isixelela ukuba kukho iindlela ezimbini zokuba nengeniso: ukwandisa ingeniso okanye ukunciphisa iindleko.I-ESS inceda ngale yokugqibela ngokugcina amandla aqokelelwe ukuze asetyenziswe kamva ngexesha lencopho.Oku kunokuba lula njengokugcina amandla elanga ngexesha lentsasa enelanga ukuze asetyenziswe ngexesha lokungxama kwangokuhlwa okanye ukuthatha ithuba lombane onexabiso eliphantsi ezinzulwini zobusuku ukuze ube namandla ongezelelweyo afumanekayo emva kwemini.Kuyo yomibini imizekelo, ngokutshintshela kumandla agciniweyo ngamaxesha apho iindleko zegridi ziphezulu, abanini beehotele banokunciphisa ngokukhawuleza ukuba i-2,200 ye-bill yamandla echithwa ngonyaka kwigumbi ngalinye.
Kulapho ixabiso langempela le-ESS liza kudlala.Ngokungafaniyo nezinye izixhobo ezifana nejenereyitha okanye ukukhanya okungxamisekileyo ezithengwa ngethemba lokuba aziyi kusetyenziswa, i-ESS ithengwa ngengcamango yokuba isetyenziswe kwaye iqala ukuhlawula ngokukhawuleza.Esikhundleni sokubuza umbuzo othi, "Yimalini le nto iya kubiza?" Abanini behotele abaphonononga i-ESS bakhawuleza baqonde umbuzo abafanele bawubuze kukuba, "Imalini le nto iya kundisindisa?"Ingxelo ye-Energy Star ekhankanywe ngaphambili ikwachaza ukuba iihotele zichitha malunga ne-6 ekhulwini leendleko zokusebenza kumandla.Ukuba elo nani linokuncitshiswa nangepesenti nje enye, ingakanani ingeniso engakumbi enokuba luncedo ehotele?
2. Backup Power
Ukumka kombane ngamaphupha amabi kubanikazi beehotele.Ukongeza ekudaleni iimeko ezingakhuselekanga nezingathandekiyo zeendwendwe (ezinokukhokelela kuphononongo olubi ngeyona ndlela ilungileyo kunye nemiba yokhuseleko lweendwendwe kunye nesiza kwindawo embi kakhulu), ukucima kunokuchaphazela yonke into ukusuka kwizibane kunye nezinyusi ukuya kwiinkqubo zoshishino ezibalulekileyo kunye nezixhobo zasekhitshini.Ukucima okwandisiweyo njengoko sabona kuMntla-mpuma weBlackout ka-2003 kunokuvala ihotele kangangeentsuku, iiveki okanye-kwezinye iimeko-ngokulungileyo.
Ngoku, iindaba ezimnandi zezokuba sihambe umgama omde kule minyaka ingama-20 idlulileyo, kwaye amandla okugcina iihotele ngoku afunwa yi-International Code Council.Kodwa ngelixa iijenereyitha ze-diesel ziye zasisisombululo esikhethiweyo, zihlala zinomsindo, zikhupha i-carbon monoxide, zifuna iindleko eziqhubekayo zepetroli kunye nokugcinwa rhoqo kwaye ngokuqhelekileyo ziyakwazi ukunika amandla indawo encinci kuphela ngexesha.
I-ESS, ngaphezu kokuphepha iingxaki ezininzi zemveli zejenereyitha ze-diesel ezichazwe ngasentla, zinokuba neeyunithi ezine zorhwebo ezihlanganiswe ndawonye, ezinikezela nge-1,000 kilowatts zamandla agciniweyo ukuze zisetyenziswe ngexesha lokucima umbane okwandisiweyo.Xa idityaniswe namandla aneleyo elanga kunye nokulungelelaniswa okufanelekileyo kumandla akhoyo, ihotele inokugcina zonke iinkqubo ezibalulekileyo zisebenza, kuquka iinkqubo zokhuseleko, ifriji, i-intanethi kunye neenkqubo zoshishino.Xa ezo nkqubo zoshishino zisasebenza kwindawo yokutyela ehotele nakwibhari, ihotele inokugcina okanye inyuse ingeniso ngexesha lokucima.
3. Iindlela zokuHlala
Ngogxininiso olukhulayo kwimisebenzi yoshishino oluzinzileyo oluvela kwiindwendwe kunye nee-arhente zikarhulumente, i-ESS ingaba yinxalenye enkulu yohambo lwehotele ukuya kwikamva eliluhlaza ngokugxila ngakumbi kwimithombo yamandla ahlaziyekayo njengelanga kunye nomoya (kumandla wemihla ngemihla) kunye nokuxhomekeka okuncinci kumafutha e-fossil. (ukwenzela amandla enkxaso).
Ayisiyiyo kuphela into elungileyo yokwenza okusingqongileyo, kodwa kukho izibonelelo ezibonakalayo kubanini beehotele nabo.Ukudweliswa "njengehotele eluhlaza" kunokubangela ukugcwala okuthe kratya okuvela kubahambi abagxile ngokuzinzileyo.Kwaye, iindlela zoshishino oluluhlaza ngokubanzi zinceda ukunciphisa iindleko kunye nokusebenzisa amanzi amancinci, amandla aphantsi, kunye neekhemikhali ezinobungozi obuncinci.
Kukho inkuthazo yaseburhulumenteni kunye neye-federal ebotshelelwa kwiinkqubo zokugcina amandla.Umthetho wokuNcitshiswa kwexabiso lokunyuka kwamaxabiso, umzekelo, uye wazisa ithuba leekhredithi zerhafu yenkuthazo ngo-2032, kwaye abanikazi behotele bangenza ibango ukuya kuthi ga kwi-5 yeedola ngonyawo lwesikweri ukuze kutsalwe amandla ezakhiwo zorhwebo ukuba ngabanini besakhiwo okanye ipropathi.Kwinqanaba likarhulumente, eCalifornia, inkqubo yePG&E's Hospitality Money-Back Solutions inika izaphulelo kunye nenkuthazo kwizisombululo zangaphambili nasemva kwendlu kubandakanya iijeneretha kunye ne-ESS yebhetri ngexesha lolu papasho.Kwilizwe laseNew York, iNkqubo yoShishino olukhulu lweGridi yeSizwe ikhuthaza izisombululo zokonga amandla kumashishini orhwebo.
Imiba yaMandla
Abanini beehotele abanabo ubunewunewu bokungahoyi ukusebenzisa kwabo amandla.Ngokunyuka kweendleko kunye nokunyuka kweemfuno zozinzo, iihotele kufuneka zithathele ingqalelo indawo yazo yamandla.Ngethamsanqa, iinkqubo zokugcina amandla ziya kunceda ukunciphisa amatyala ombane, ukunika amandla okuxhasa iinkqubo ezibalulekileyo, kunye nokuqhubela phambili kwiindlela zoshishino eziluhlaza.Kwaye obo bunewunewu esinokuyonwabela sonke.
