Everun installed its Turntide Smart Motor System, which has been proven to save companies on energy bills and reduce their impact on the environment.
The hotel is anticipating savings of more than 41% in the running of the air conditioning and handling at the venue.
Everun's Managing Director, Michael Thompson said: "Electric motors are everywhere in business from pumping air to powering production lines, however, the technology used in these motors is more than a century old and is no longer efficient for today's world.
"We were delighted to work with Crowne Plaza to update the motors that power the air handling units across multiple sites at the hotel including the main function hall, pool, gym, and the fitness suite."

Ahead of the installation, Everun in conjunction with UK partners Future Motor Limited are the exclusive distributors of TurnTide in Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland, carried out a comprehensive audit of the existing motors for over a week, monitoring their performance to help predict the energy-saving potential of the Turntide motors.
"Using our desktop analysis we projected that the minimum potential saving would be 25%," said Mr Thompson, Everun's Managing Director.
"Following the installation, we have carried out an additional analysis of the new system and found that Crowne Plaza will achieve a 41% increase in energy efficiency in actual day-to-day use, giving the hotel a return on their investment in less than three years."
Three of Everun's specialist engineers installed the new Turntide motors in the hotel's HVAC air handling units during February, including the motors, new hardware, cable runs, belts, pulleys and software.
Commenting on the installation, Rajesh Rana from Crowne Plaza added: "As a hotel, we are very aware that many guests in this beautiful part of Northern Ireland are asking about our sustainability policies. We are proud to have achieved the industry recognised Green Tourism accreditation.
"The projection that we will have a carbon offset of around 62 tonnes across the whole site is an important aspect of our commitment."
