Due to higher electricity costs, Caribbean hotels have much larger operating costs than comparable U.S. properties. To help minimize this expense, GSE offers technology solutions that manage and optimize the efficient use of energy for commercial and industrial clients. GSE Management and Energy Solutions is a major player in renewable energy for the hospitality market and are installing Telkonet's EcoSmart guestroom energy management system in numerous resort properties around Cancun.    

"GSE and their group of companies are the leading providers of telecommunications and energy savings technology in the region," stated Telkonet CEO, Jason Tienor. "They are the frontrunner in implementing energy efficient systems that support conservation objectives while enhancing the guest experience. We respect GSE's focus on providing energy savings to their customers through technical and economic optimization that positively impacts their client's business." 

Arturo Gerson, General Manager for GSE said, "Telkonet's EcoSmart system is the best technology available to save energy without compromising guest comfort at resort properties. We've searched a long time for the best manufacturer for GSE to represent with the most knowledge and technological capability and Telkonet is the perfect fit. In the Cancun area, energy costs are very high and the wireless connectivity of EcoSmart makes it quick and easy to install. Combined with the significant energy that is saved when rooms are unoccupied and the return on investment is substantial."

The EcoSmart Intelligent Energy Management System offers a wealth of powerful features to maximize energy savings, operational efficiency, and guest satisfaction.  Intelligent thermostats, occupancy sensors, door and window contacts, outlets and light switches form a wireless mesh network to communicate information between rooms, floors, and buildings. The cloud-based EcoCentral Virtual Engineer™ Command Center allows users to monitor, control and optimize energy savings while maintaining guest comfort.  In combination with Telkonet's EcoCare realtime support services, EcoSmart provides the most effective energy management package available to the hospitality market today.
