Sustainability
Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center is committed to environmental responsibility, aligning with Marriott International's global sustainability goals. Key initiatives include a transformative solar energy project with 4,696 solar panels spanning 3.5 acres on the convention center roof, expected to generate nearly 3.4 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually and supply up to 20% of the resort's total energy needs, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2,379 metric tons of carbon dioxide each year. The resort also implemented a Cogeneration System (COGEN) in 2018, functioning as Maryland's largest microgrid, which uses natural gas to generate electricity and hot water, covering over 85% of the electric load and reducing the carbon footprint by 32,800 tons annually. Water conservation efforts include low-flow toilets (less than 1.6 gallons per flush) and faucets (less than 2.5 gallons per minute) in guestrooms, and a smart irrigation system. Waste reduction is addressed by eliminating single-use toiletries in favor of larger dispensers.
