With more than 50 destinations, 39,000+ hotel rooms, 300+ restaurant and dining outlets, and 200+ nightlife venues globally, Caesars Entertainment is one of the most geographically diverse entertainment companies in the world. When the company first set forth aggressive sustainability goals in 2007, leadership executives knew that achieving these goals across such a complex organization would be no simple task.
As the organization has grown, so have its sustainability initiatives – and corresponding complexity. Caesars was even one of the first organizations that committed to science-based targets, demanding an even greater commitment to data quality and discipline. To achieve its aggressive environmental goals, Caesars Entertainment turned to ENGIE Impact for help.
With over four years of partnership, Caesars has engaged ENGIE Impact’s team of industry-leading carbon, energy, and waste experts to provide data-driven insights and expertise to achieve aggressive goals. Some highlights of the partnership include:
Efficient and accurate collection, tracking, and monitoring of energy, water, waste, and emissions data. ENGIE Impact’s utility expense and data-management service helped aggregate portfolio-wide data to deliver the essential foundation to baseline and track performance to reduction goals.
End-to-end Waste Management: Using portfolio-wide data, site-specific insights, and ENGIE Impact’s expertise, Caesars designed a spectrum of diverse programs to address recycling, organics, waste prevention, asset recovery, and employee and guest engagement.
Current state assessment to understand waste generation, Caesars invested in high-quality data that would show a 360° view of waste opportunities, including:
Execution: Using insights to build innovative programs. Caesars wide-reaching programs reduced waste generation, made recycling intuitive and uncovered creative ways to donate or repurpose items – greatly enhancing diversion rates and saving millions.
Robust GHG Emissions Accounting and Disclosure to CDP: Leveraging ENGIE Impact’s CDP-accredited Carbon Manager software and a team of disclosure experts, Caesars was able to confidently and accurately track, measure and manage its GHG emissions using a consistent, proven methodology backed by verifiable data. With ENGIE Insight’s support, and Caesars history of environmental commitment and performance, the hospitality leader was able to achieve a perfect 100 disclosure score by providing more compelling, qualitative responses to the 2015 CDP Climate Change questionnaire. For the 2016 CDP Climate Change response, Caesars challenged itself to go another step further. Building on an already strong response, Caesars leveraged ENGIE Impact’s expertise to develop and report its first-ever science-based carbon target aligned with the Paris Agreement, earning the highest possible score – a perfect A – and a place on the coveted CDP Climate A-List.
