At Carezza Dolomites, the responsible use of energy and resources is a long-term part of the way the lift company operates. Rather than relying on a single initiative, Carezza implements concrete measures across different areas of its operations – from energy and technical snowmaking to mobility, gastronomy and events.
Technical snowmaking and piste preparation are continuously monitored and optimised. Snow production is concentrated during periods of suitably low temperatures in order to use water and energy as efficiently as possible. Snow groomer routes are also planned to reduce unnecessary journeys. Since autumn 2025, the snow groomers – with the exception of snowmobiles – have been powered by HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) instead of fossil diesel.
The electricity purchased for the operation of the lifts and technical snowmaking comes 100% from renewable energy sources and is certified through the relevant guarantees of origin.
At events, measures include the use of regional products, the reduction of printed information materials, waste separation and the promotion of travel by public transport.
In gastronomy, cooperation with local producers and farms is encouraged. One concrete example is the “Bergler Acker” project: during the season, locally grown vegetables are regularly transported by cable car to the Laurins Lounge.
Reusable drinking bottles can also help reduce the use of single-use packaging. At various locations in Eggental, visitors can refill their bottles with drinking water.
staff mobility, resource use and staff catering. Carpooling, for example, can help reduce the number of individual journeys made by employees.
The effectiveness of the measures implemented is regularly reviewed. Carezza Dolomites therefore calculates its Corporate Carbon Footprint on a regular basis. In 2025, recorded greenhouse gas emissions amounted to 284 tonnes of CO₂ equivalents (CO₂e), approximately 40% less than in the previous year.
This process is continuously evolving. Existing measures are reviewed and further opportunities to reduce resource consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are assessed. In this way, progress can be documented through concrete measures and measurable results.
