Abstract
This paper analyses gas consumption in hotels on the Adriatic coast, comparing data on natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) consumption by hotel size. The research hypothesis is that by switching from LPG to natural gas, not only can a reduction in emissions be achieved in the hospitality industry, but there are also significant economic benefits. The research objectives included a regression analysis for various factors affecting gas consumption. The analysis showed a medium–strong relationship between the variables, which is a novelty for energy trends in the hospitality sector. By converting from heating oil to natural gas, hotels can achieve significant financial savings. It was also calculated that this would reduce the total energy consumption costs. Measures taken by the hospitality industry will have a positive impact on guest perception and could be used as a promotional tool under the “green hospitality” label.
