Energy

There is more to come

That is why we are currently planning to build our own wood chipping plant. The wood used will come exclusively from our own forest and from the farmers on our plateau. This autonomous heat generation will be designed in such a way that we can also supply our agriculture and also the surrounding neighbours with this organic wood heat. Alternatively or in parallel, we will consider an expansion of the solar system or even new geothermal heating systems. Since 2022, we have been obtaining the firewood for ambient fireplaces in the hotel from our own forest. Furthermore, we mainly use natural materials in our renovations and investments (e.g. organic clay walls in the new natural rooms and suites).

Our source of power

The main source of our thermal energy is the Seefeld Bio-Ortswärme, a state-of-the-art wood chipping plant. A solar system serves as a supplementary power source for heating our swimming pools. That's all we need to make you feel comfortably warm everywhere. Our electricity is covered 100% by green electricity suppliers. These are producers who completely dispense with fossil fuels. Furthermore, the photovoltaic system on the hotel roof was expanded +150kw in spring 2023.

 

Photovoltaic expansion targets:

Staff house + 40kw (2024)

Agriculture +23kw (2024)

Car park +120kw (2024/2025)

Energy optimisation

In 2019, various energy saving & electricity management measures were implemented with the company Siemens, involving an investment of €700,000. Since 2020, we have been free of fossil fuels, with the exception of the gas line for the pizza oven.

A TOUCH OF TRADITION THAT LASTS!

OUR CLASSIC KEYS INSTEAD OF ELECTRONIC LOCKING SYSTEMS

At Hotel Klosterbräu*** we intentionally choose classic room keys over modern electronic locking systems. While this may seem nostalgic at first glance, for us it’s a sustainable decision – and a charming detail that perfectly fits with our 500-year history

Our guests pick up their keys personally at the reception – creating genuine connections and leaving room for personalized tips and a friendly chat. Unlike electronic systems that require hundreds of batteries per season, the classic key saves both energy and resources.

Tradition meets sustainability – the perfect combination in our eyes!
