Is your airport still operating blind to energy waste costing millions annually? Airport terminals consume up to 180 million kWh per year—with HVAC systems alone eating 80% of that energy. Without real-time analytics, you're missing critical opportunities to reduce consumption, cut carbon emissions, and meet sustainability commitments. OXmaint's energy analytics platform transforms how airports track, analyze, and optimize energy usage across every system. Schedule a demo to see how data-driven energy management can revolutionize your airport operations.
The True Cost of Energy Blindness
Airports operating without comprehensive energy analytics face a perfect storm of rising costs, regulatory pressure, and missed sustainability targets. The numbers tell a stark story that many airport operators are only beginning to understand.

Actionable Energy Insights
Raw data means nothing without intelligence. OXmaint's analytics engine identifies patterns, predicts anomalies, and recommends specific actions to reduce consumption and costs.
High Priority
HVAC Setpoint Optimization Opportunity
Terminal B is maintaining 22°C during low-occupancy periods (11 PM - 5 AM). Passenger comfort surveys show 24°C is acceptable during these hours.
Potential Savings:
$42,000/year
Energy Reduction:
340 MWh/year
CO₂ Reduction:
152 tons/year
Recommended Action:
Adjust BAS schedule to increase setpoint to 24°C during 11 PM - 5 AM period
Medium Priority
Lighting Schedule Mismatch
Concourse C maintains 100% lighting from 6 AM - 11 PM despite natural daylight availability through skylights from 8 AM - 6 PM.
Potential Savings:
$18,000/year
Recommended Action:
Install daylight sensors and dim artificial lighting 40% during peak daylight hours
Low Priority
Equipment Upgrade ROI
Chiller #3 efficiency has degraded to 68% (0.85 kW/ton vs design 0.58 kW/ton). Replacement would pay back in 4.2 years.
Annual Savings Post-Upgrade:
$28,000/year
Recommended Action:
Include chiller replacement in next capital improvement plan
