Fáilte Ireland holding energy management workshop for Mayo tourism businesses

In response to the current energy management challenges facing tourism businesses, Fáilte Ireland has today launched a series of free in-person energy management workshops tailored support the tourism industry in managing their energy usage and reduce their energy costs.

This series will run across nine locations nationwide during October and early November.

A 2-hour workshop in the Galmont Hotel, County Galway, will be hosted by energy experts who will provide businesses with immediate, low-cost actions that they can take to improve their energy efficiency and reduce energy bills.

It takes place on Monday next, October 17, from 2.30 p.m. to 4.30 p.m. and 6.30 p.m. to 8.30 p.m. and will provide vital supports and information to local tourism businesses so any support to share this message would be hugely appreciated.

This is open to all tourism businesses across the county who register their attendance with Fáilte Ireland.

The workshops will be practical and informative with attendees encouraged to bring their business energy bills to the session to gain a deeper understanding with energy experts on the day.

There will be guidance and recommendations on low-cost and no-cost actions that can be implemented immediately to reduce energy consumption in the business and case studies of similar tourism businesses will be presented.

To support these workshops a step-by-step Fáilte Ireland Energy Management Guide, the first in an upcoming series of guides, is available to download.

All tourism businesses in County Mayo are welcome to attend so we are encouraging businesses to register today.”

Along with the practical in-person events virtual sessions are also available for businesses.

The Fáilte Ireland always–on schedule of tourism capability supports includes webinars and workshops designed as a direct response to meet industry needs across several priority areas including climate action.
