Lefay Resorts & Residences is a carbon neutral company and totally offsets its CO2 emissions. This is done, in the first place, by constantly utilizing the environmental management system to reduce operational impacts thanks to the self-generation plants. Secondly, CO2 emissions are calculated, and the ones of fossil origin are totally offset by purchasing CER credits recognized by the UN in compliance with the provisions of the Kyoto Protocol. To offset the emissions related to 2021, Lefay has decided to finance three projects aimed at promoting the economic and social development of local communities in India, Peru and Uganda.
The use of state-of-the-art technologies targeted at reducing energy consumption has allowed Lefay to combine luxury, maximize service and comfort with a comprehensive respect for the environment. Most of the energy used comes from clean renewable energy sources: in particular, 100% of thermal energy is produced by the onsite energy plants located within the resorts, as well as 51% of the electric energy.
