BLive has launched Green Hospitality Program (GHP)- a first-of-its-kind initiative to promote green mobility and climate-conscious tourism in the hospitality industry. It will help the hospitality industry to deliver a unique environment friendly experience to their guests inside the campus, as they are going to use EVs for all internal transportation. Apart from that it will also help them to meet their ESG Goals and reduce overall carbon footprint.
BLive will act as a one-stop shop also for hospitality brands to help them buy, rent or lease electric vehicles in a hassle-free manner.Under GHP, BLive is going to provide hotels, resorts and hospitality chains with a range of EV options including e-cycles, electric 2-wheelers, 3-wheelers, 4-wheelers along with fast charging stations on their premises.
In the first stage of this initiative, BLive has joined hands with brands such as JW Marriott Bangalore, Novotel and Varca Le Palm Goa to kickoff with switching to electric mobility. In its current partnership, the company has provided EV charging infrastructure to Novotel, electric 3-wheelers to Heritage Village Club and Varca Le Palms Beach Resort Goa, and 5 e-cycles to JW Marriott.
Mr. Ronan Fearon, General Manager of JW Marriot, expressed “With rising environmental concerns, it is crucial to adopt the best practices that enable us to deliver environment-friendly experiences to our customers and become more sustainable. Our partnership with BLive will support us in accelerating EV adoption and achieving our common objective of building a cleaner and greener future”
Elaborating on the GHP program, Samarth Kholkar, CEO & Co-Founder, BLive said, “The hospitality industry is a burgeoning sector which is experiencing a boom with a rise in the number of travellers flocking to various destinations. Thus it becomes imperative for the hospitality brands to switch to sustainable practices to cater to the demand by minimizing their impact on the environment. The role of electric vehicles in combating climate change has been acknowledged by all.”
“With GHP we are helping our partners with our expertise, choice and ease of ownership as well. In addition to benefits such as reducing carbon footprints, it also brings huge cost advantages to them by scaling up their revenue generation capabilities.”, Samarth added.
