Cindrella Hotels continues to work on the development and conservation
of energy mainly through use of energy-efficient and environmentally
friendly technologies of lighting such as LED.
Right now, LEDs are one of the most energy-efficient and
environmentally friendly technologies available to consumers. According
to the U.S.Department of Energy, LED bulbs offer similar light quality
to traditional incandescents, but last 25 times as long and use even
less energy than CFLs.
In addition, incandescent bulbs and CFLs get hot, which means they heat
up rooms. LEDs, on the other hand, usually have a built in mechanism to
prevent this heat build-up. Furthermore, LED systems aren''t as
sensitive to on-off cycling, which makes them perfect for motion
sensors, outdoor lights, and dimmers. Perhaps their biggest advantage
is that they are mercury-free and do not require special handling if
they break or wear out. While LEDs cost more than incandescent and
CFLs, they still save money by lasting longer and consuming less
energy.

The company earns all its foreign exchange from Darjeeling Tours which
is received in Indian currency by the company.
