... 23 C H A P T E R 4 Selecting and verifying energy savings technologies can be difficult due to the variability in escalator and moving walkway usage and passenger flow. Several key metrics should be collected and measured prior to the installation of any energy saving technologies in order to identify, review, and select the most sensible and location-specific energy efficient technologies.

... 24 Airport Escalators and Moving Walkways -- Cost-Savings and Energy Reduction Technologies Step 1: Define Project Scope and Develop Objectives The first step of the process is to develop a scope for the project and define the objectives. This can be done by first answering a set of questions about the project.

... 26 Airport Escalators and Moving Walkways -- Cost-Savings and Energy Reduction Technologies Monitoring performance not only allows verification that the system is performing as expected, but also helps to identify potential issues with the installation. If the proper metering equipment is available, measurements should be taken regularly throughout the year to verify that the equipment continues to perform as expected.
