The first building in the Inca country to receive LEED certification is a luxurious hotel located in the Cusco region called Tambo del Inka and part of the Libertador hotel chain.
The hotel was conditioned to save 80% on water consumption, as they recycle the wastewater through a treatment plant and use it again to irrigate the gardens of the establishment.
Other characteristics for which the country hotel achieved this certification is due to the fact that it can save 36% in electricity consumption thanks to the use of refrigerants and an indoor air conditioning monitoring system.
Directors of the hotel chain said that for the next five years they aspire to achieve LEED certification in the other six hotels they have.
