”Westmont chose the Ember enabled WiSuite solution from Riga Development for its innovative approach to energy management”

- Steve Montague, Westmont Hospitality Group

Westmont expects to save more than $2.2 million in energy costs per year. This equates to 14,678 megawatt hours of electricity — enough energy to power 2,332 households yearly — and will eliminate 12,500 metric tons of coal-generated carbon dioxide emissions, making a significant, positive environmental impact.
