For three years, Odot has been the permanent partner of hotel group B&B HOTELS, which is on a real growth trajectory in Belgium and Luxembourg. By September 2025, the group will have 13 hotels in the region, with the ambition to further expand to as many as 30 sites over time.

Of course, this also brings with it challenges in terms of energy management - from drawing up correct budgets to optimally managing the energy needs of the various sites

Odot takes on the management of gas and electricity energy contracts for them, negotiates new contracts and provides billing control.

Dimitri Lurmonte, Property Manager, B&B HOTELS:"Since we brought Odot on board, we have a very clear view of what we pay monthly. In addition to that transparency, it is also a huge efficiency gain to be able to put everything under the management of one specialized party. This allows us to focus fully on what drives us - the satisfaction of our guests and customers."

And the cooperation with Odot is now also translating into nice savings. Dimitri Lurmonte:"We are now also reaping the benefits in terms of costs. Before Odot came on board, we were stuck in an unfavorable energy contract. That has since been remedied. Odot has also worked out a click strategy for us with which we secure long-term benefits. All KPIs are currently comfortably exceeded."

And the partnership may add even more value in the years to come.

"As an environmentally conscious group, we are also rolling out an electric fleet and will also be installing solar panels. Odot's expertise will obviously come in handy in these facets as well."
