An analysis on energy performance indicator and GWP at Airports; a case study
Özet
Airports are very important facilities for global transportation. Energy plays a key role for the comfort needs of passengers and the safe operation of aircraft. In airports with high energy consumption areas, energy management allows the reduction of both costs and environmental impacts. Therefore, the phenomena that affect energy consumption in airports need to be identified. In this study, the factors affecting energy consumption in airport terminal buildings were determined by regression analysis and mathematically modeling. In addition, energy-induced Global Warming Potential (GWP) was determined and its change was explained mathematically. It was seen that with each change in passenger causes a 1.59 kWh energy and 1.44 kg CO2 eq. change. However, each increase in the number of degree days causes a 3468.6kWh energy and 1428 kg CO2eq. increase.
