From hotels and restaurants to gyms, leisure centres, and sporting venues, the hospitality and leisure industry depends on continuous power to keep guests comfortable and operations running smoothly. Power cuts can lead to lost revenue, reputational damage, and even data loss, risks no Facilities Manager or Procurement Team can afford. We deliver generator, UPS and CHP solutions built for the guest-facing demands of this sector.
For decades, Shenton Group has supported hotels, leisure centres, pubs, clubs, and restaurants with dependable power solutions. We understand the unique challenges of high-energy environments and the importance of uninterrupted service for customer satisfaction and compliance.
Combined Heat and Power (CHP) systems generate heat and electricity simultaneously, making them ideal for sites with high hot water demand such as swimming pools, spas, and large accommodation facilities. CHP can reduce carbon emissions by up to 30%, cut energy costs, and help meet sustainability goals.
At Shenton Group, we maintain and optimise CHP systems to ensure they deliver maximum efficiency and ROI—helping hospitality businesses achieve greener energy and lower bills without compromising reliability.
Hospitality and leisure sites have a distinct risk profile worth naming explicitly: guest-facing downtime is immediately visible and often happens outside normal business hours, when on-site engineering support is thinnest. This makes rapid-response cover particularly valuable for:
