Las Vegas Strip's Resorts World announced that the property has reached its sustainability goals, now powered by 100% renewable energy sources. Resorts World, in a news release, stated that the property is “now one of the few Las Vegas Strip resorts to achieve this incredible feat.”

“We are thrilled to have reached such an incredible milestone in our sustainability efforts after only two years of operation,” said Peter LaVoie, President of Resorts World Las Vegas. “The partnership with NV Energy has been integral in our efforts thus far and we look forward to continuing our commitment to our community and environment as we work to further implement impactful changes across the resort.”

The property is LEED Gold Certified, which according to Resorts World positions it among the "best energy-efficient facilities on the globe." Apart from being powered by completely renewable energy, Resorts World also uses a "patented indoor air monitoring system to continuously optimize ventilation rates to improve indoor air quality and reduce energy usage."

At the time of construction, more than 80% of waste and debris was diverted from landfills. Since then, they have reduced their energy use and water consumption by more than 30%, compared to industry standards, and have, what casino officials call, "the largest amount of electric vehicle chargers on the Strip."

"This project is emblematic of our commitment to meeting our customers' unique energy needs and identifying an innovative path forward to meet those needs," said Doug Cannon, NV Energy President and CEO.

Additionally, the resort has a food donation and waste production program, which involves workers separating food waste before it is sent to local farms to be converted into animal feed.
