Introducing the world’s first zero energy hotel

World's First Zero-Energy Hotel

This innovative project, a collaboration between Changi Airport Group and developer OUE Limited, is poised to be a game-changer in the hospitality industry. Hotel Indigo Changi Airport is aiming to achieve the prestigious title of world’s first zero energy hotel.

So, what exactly does “zero-energy” mean? Imagine a hotel that generates or harvests enough clean energy to power its entire operation. Through a combination of cutting-edge sustainable features, Hotel Indigo Changi Airport plans to achieve just that.

Here’s a peek at what awaits environmentally conscious guests:

World's First Zero-Energy Hotel

  • Solar powerhouse: The hotel will be adorned with solar photovoltaic panels, cleverly transforming sunlight into clean energy.
  • Beat the heat naturally: Hybrid cooling systems will ensure a comfortable stay while minimising energy consumption.
  • Breathe easy, breathe green: Naturally ventilated corridors will promote fresh air circulation, reducing reliance on air conditioning.
  • Every drop counts: Rainwater harvesting technology will capture and reuse rainwater, a valuable resource in any location.

But sustainability isn’t the only perk this hotel boasts. Luxury is also on the menu. The 255-room Hotel Indigo Changi Airport will cater to discerning travellers seeking a comfortable and stylish airport layover or Singapore stopover.

Imagine unwinding after a long flight at the rooftop bar or day club, soaking up panoramic views of the runway, airport boulevard, and the Singapore skyline. An infinity pool, surrounded by lush greenery, completes this picture of relaxation.

The hotel’s design will further elevate the guest experience. Drawing inspiration from the natural world, the hotel embraces a “floating forest” concept. Layers of rainforest vegetation will cascade over the seven-story structure, creating a unique and tranquil atmosphere.
