The Stantec Approach

1. Gather energy and water consumption data for a calendar year

2. Capture enplanement numbers and building area

3. Categorize airports by number of enplanements and compare small, medium, and large categorization

4. Perform comparisons given size and ASHRAE Climate Region

Outcomes

• Opportunities to better understand building & system performance

• Airports are typically the second largest energy consumers by building type

• Airport owner / operators are engaged in energy reduction
