Chalet Hotels Ltd has become the first hospitality brand globally to achieve the Climate Group’s EV100 target, after fully transitioning its fleet to 100 per cent electric vehicles and installing charging infrastructure across its properties.
The company, which joined the EV100 initiative in 2021 with a commitment to meet the goal by 2025, has delivered ahead of schedule, as per ETTravels. EV100 is a global initiative that brings together companies committed to accelerating the shift to electric mobility by 2030.
The milestone marks a key step in Chalet Hotels’ broader sustainability and Net Zero roadmap. The company has set a target to achieve Net Zero emissions by 2040, aligning with India’s e-mobility mission and the Paris Agreement.
Dr Sanjay Sethi, Managing Director & CEO of Chalet Hotels, said “By adopting electric mobility across our operations, we are taking decisive steps to reduce carbon emissions, improve air quality in the communities we serve, and provide our guests with greener, future-ready travel options,” he said.
Dr Divya Sharma, India Executive Director, Climate Group, said “They’ve not only been ambitious but have turned their pledge into reality four years into making the commitment. Fully electrifying their fleets, they’ve also put in place essential charging infrastructure at their properties,” she said.
