Turnberry Hotels captures seven-figure incentives through Roble
Overview
Turnberry’s hospitality portfolio sets a high bar for guest experience and operational discipline. In 2024, the firm engaged Roble to take a measured, fiduciary-minded look at its energy-efficiency investments and the federal incentives that often go unclaimed. Beginning with the 33-story JW Marriott Nashville, Roble established a repeatable, data-driven process to surface, substantiate, and secure incentives across the portfolio, adding material value while preserving Turnberry’s focus on ownership responsibilities.



The challenge
Each Turnberry hotel carries a distinct construction history. Variations in system design and record-keeping made a piecemeal incentive hunt costly and payoff uncertain. Leadership needed a partner that could impose order, standardize data intake, meet modelling requirements, and guide certification, without disrupting daily operations.
The solution
Roble rolled out a portfolio roadmap that triaged assets by eligibility and potential benefit. Drawings and specification sets were digitized, then run through energy modeling, and on-site engineering audits were conducted in parallel workstreams. At JW Marriott Nashville alone, Roble verified a 54% annual energy-cost improvement over the baseline and prepared the full certification package. All documentation now resides in Roble’s compliance portal, providing Turnberry with comprehensive real-time insight into incentive status and future eligibility windows.
“Roble’s portfolio-first approach transformed a maze of property files into a clear pipeline of incentives. Their systemized process lets us capture value across every hotel, not just our flagship assets.”
The result
Turnberry has already unlocked millions of incentives available from recent improvements. With Roble’s portfolio dashboard monitoring the remaining properties, leadership expects to compound these savings in upcoming cycles while strengthening financial performance.
