Sustainable tourism principles are applicable to all forms of tourism -- from traditional mass tourism to niche tourism segments, such as ecotourism -- and call for the optimal use of natural resources, environmental protection, respect for the socio-cultural aspects of host communities, long-term economic viability of the tourism businesses, and the fair distribution of socio-economic benefits to all stakeholders. Management of energy supply and consumption, therefore, is a critical component of any sustainable tourism project.
