Pro Eco Energy installs solar collector heat exchange system in Vancouver's Listel Hotel.

The Listel Hotel is the first hotel in Vancouver to install a cutting-edge renewable energy system. The hotel is reducing its carbon footprint -- and annual energy expenses -- by installing solar panels and a highly efficient heat recovery system.

The Listel is now tapping into the sun’s abundant and easily-accessible alternative energy via solar thermal collectors to lower their heating costs and, most importantly, their carbon footprint. The hotel expects to reduce its carbon gas emissions by 170 tons annually.

A computer-controlled system from Care System of Vernon BC, combined with a gas-fired boiler, provides heating and cooling of water and air for the 129 room hotel. The solar heat from solar panels on the hotel’s roof is primarily used to pre-heat the domestic hot water. Solar-heated water is stored in a tank with a capacity of 4,500 liters.

The Listel Hotel is known as “Vancouver’s most art-full hotel” and one of the city’s most well-appointed boutique hotels. It is now the city's greenest hotels as well. The Hotel Association of Canada gave The Listel the highest eco-rating of any Vancouver hotel - 4 Green Keys. Read more
