SCHNEIDER Electric, the leader in energy management and digital automation, emphasized during the recent Hotel + Accommodation Industry Summit Philippines 2024 that sustainability plays a crucial role in the hotel and accommodation industry as 2 out of 3 travelers now prefer establishments that engage in green practices.

This growing preference for sustainable establishments coincides with the expected return of international travel to pre-pandemic levels this 2024, which is estimated to grow by 2 percent above 2019 figures, according to the first UNWTO World Tourism Barometer of the Year.
