Annual EU Calculation per ATB System Figure 5 shows the process for determining the Energy Use (EU) per system that is located in an ATB or that receives energy from the ATB. In this process, systems that are specific to ATBs were identified and relevant literature was reviewed. The sources we identified assisted in the development of the method for determining the annual EU per system. The ATB Systems identified in this study include: • People movers, escalators, elevators, • Baggage handling systems, • Alternative Systems (i.e., electric, heating/cooling), • Airport Ground Support Equipment (GSE), and • External/parking lighting.

8 For an Airport Terminal Building (ATB), the overall energy use of all systems would be: EUall-systems, total = EUescalator-total + EUpeople-mover-total + EUbaggage handling-total + EUelevator-total + EUalternative systems-total + EUground support equipment + EUexternal/parking lighting + EUother Where: EUall-systems, total = Annual energy use of all systems (kBtu/yr). 3.1 Annual EU of Escalator, People-mover and Baggage Handling Systems. Figure 6 illustrates the process of calculating the total annual energy use for escalators, people movers (moving walkways), and baggage handling systems (TIAX, 2006). Figure 6.

Commercial Loads, Escalators—Key Assumptions Assuming standard Power Draw per unit (TIAX 2006, pg. 30, Commercial Loads – Escalators – Key Assumptions): EUescalator-active = 4.671 kW EUescalator-standby = 0 kW EUescalator-total = {(4.671 kW x TIMactive x 365) + (0 kW x TIMstandby x 365)} x #units x 3.412 Assuming standard Annual Unit usage (TIAX 2006, pg. 30, Commercial Loads – Escalators – Key Assumptions): TIMactive = 4380 hr/yr / 365 = 12 hr/day TIMstandby = 4380 hr/yr / 365 = 12 hr/day EUescalator-total = {(4.671 kW x 12 hr/day x 365 day/yr) + (0 W x 12 hr/day x 365 day/yr) x #units x 3.412 EUescalator-total = 20,458 kWh/yr x #units x 3.412 kBtu/kWh EUescalator-total = 69,806 kBtu/yr x #units

11 Using an example from Harrisburg International Airport (MDT) for Power Draw per unit: EUbaggage handling-active = 1.5 hp = 1.119 kW EUbaggage handling-standby = 0 W EUbaggage handling-total = {(1.119 kW x TIMactive x 365) + (0 kW x TIMstandby x 365)} x #units x 3.412 Using an example case of Harrisburg International Airport (MDT) for Annual Unit Usage: TIMactive = 16 hr/day TIMstandby = 8 hr/day EUbaggage handling-total = {(1.119 kW x 16 hr/day x 365 day/yr) + (0 kW x 8 hr/day x 365 day/yr)} x #units x 3.412 EUbaggage handling-total = 6,532.333 kWh/yr x #units x 3.412 kBtu/kWh EUbaggage handling-total = 22,288 kBtu/yr x #units

12 3.2 Annual EU of Elevators Figure 7 illustrates the process of calculating the total annual energy use for elevators (TIAX, 2006). Figure 7.

14 3.3 Annual EU of Alternative Systems (Ground Power and PCA) Figure 8 illustrates the process of calculating the total annual energy use of Alternative Systems, including Ground Power and PCA Power (Environmental Science Associates 2012). Following our site visits and further research, the Time In Mode (TIM) for both the gate-in mode and the gate-out mode were set to 30 minutes. Due to the lack of a definitive study of US airlines, the TIM for all aircraft types are assumed to be the same. However, to refine this, the survey form allows new users from airports to input more accurate TIM per aircraft type according to their knowledge for better predictions. If no new information is provided, the calculation will use the default value of 30 minutes for gate-in and for gate-out modes, which means 60 minutes for a full Landing/Takeoff (LTO) cycle, regardless of the aircraft type.

EUheating = (HP x3.412+HR) x (TIM/60) x LTOcycles/yr Where: EUheating = Annual heating energy used by the alternative systems (kBtu/yr), HP = Heating power (kW); values from ACRP Report 64, Tables 8, 9, or 10 (below), HR=Heating rate (Btu/hr) for natural gas; if any, values from ACRP Report 64, Table 10 (below), TIM = Time in mode (min/LTO), LTOcycles/yr = Number of Landing and Takeoff cycles per year (Number of cycles/yr).
