Radisson Hotel Group leads with Verified Net Zero hotels and highlights Think People, Community, and Planet actions in its 2025 Responsible Business Report

Radisson Hotel Group's 2025 Responsible Business Report demonstrates how the Group is turning its Net Zero transformation into real, measurable progress across its hotels and operations, and cares for people and communities.

In a rapidly evolving operating environment shaped by shifting guest expectations, climate risk, and increasing regulatory requirements, sustainability continues to guide the Group's strategic direction. Radisson Hotel Group remains committed to supporting careers and communities, as well as achieving Net Zero by 2050. The Group focuses on strengthening the long-term competitiveness of its hotels and owners through sustainability and contributes to the transition toward a low-carbon hospitality sector.

The report highlights how this strategy is being embedded across the business through a structured five-year plan and operational priorities focused on energy efficiency, electrification, renewable energy, and responsible resource use.

A key milestone in 2025 was the launch of the Group's first Verified Net Zero hotels, establishing a scalable model for reducing emissions across both existing and new properties. These projects demonstrate that meaningful decarbonization can be achieved within operational hotel environments.

The report also provides a transparent view of performance across Radisson Hotel Group's Think People, Think Community, and Think Planet pillars, translating strategic priorities into measurable outcomes across its global portfolio. This ensures that sustainability remains embedded in decision-making, building trust with guests, owners, partners, and team members, while supporting long-term value creation.

Think Planet

Radisson Hotel Group is transitioning to Net Zero by 2050, focusing on the adoption of sustainable building standards, renewable energy and resource-efficient hotel operations. The new Verified Net Zero program provides a practical, scalable model for reducing emissions across the hotel portfolio. Key milestones include:

• 23% reduction in emissions intensity per square meter versus the 2019 baseline
• 6% reduction in total Scope 1 and 2 emissions versus 2019 (24%), while the portfolio grew by 20%
• 78 hotels operating on 100% renewable electricity, with aims to continue expansion of renewable energy sourcing

In 2025, the Group opened its first Verified Net Zero Hotels in Manchester City Centre and Oslo City Centre, demonstrating how existing and new hotels can operate with significantly reduced carbon emissions across scopes 1, 2 and 3 and still maintain high guest experience and operational standards.

The 2025 report marks an important step forward in transparency and accountability. It is the Group's first Responsible Business Report aligned with the European Union’s Voluntary Sustainability Reporting Standard for SMEs (VSME) reporting framework, based on a double materiality approach that identifies and manages key environmental, social, and governance impacts, risks, and opportunities.
