RIU Signs Landmark Agreement with TIRME to Use 100% Locally Sourced Renewable Electricity
The
agreement, covering the years 2025, 2026, and 2027, guarantees that the
electricity consumed at RIU’s properties in Majorca, Formentera, and at its
corporate offices in Playa de Palma will carry a zero carbon footprint starting
this year.
This
initiative is part of RIU’s broader Proudly Committed sustainability strategy
and reinforces its global efforts to reduce its environmental impact. Since
2022, RIU has already been sourcing certified renewable electricity in twelve
countries, representing over half of its global destinations.
In
addition to this new partnership, RIU has installed photovoltaic solar panels
at 22 of its hotels. These steps have contributed to a 64% reduction in
emissions per guest stay (Scopes 1 and 2) over the past three years—an
impressive milestone in its sustainability journey.
With
this agreement, RIU not only strengthens its commitment to climate
responsibility but also leads the way in supporting local, green energy
solutions in the tourism sector.
