Airports where every meter point reports, and every loss gets fixed.
Terminals built in different decades, thousands of meter points nobody reconciles, and tenants charged by floor area. Aqueduct closes the balance per terminal and turns each gap into a located fix.
What airports teams are up against.
Water, energy, air and operations carry equal weight. Each one runs the same loop: monitor, measure, identify, act, verify.
Water: Restroom risers and airfield mains
Buried leaks and failed flush valves running for months
Energy: Central plant and gate equipment
Chillers staged for peak all day, gate air left on after departure
Air: Terminal air handling
Full fresh air whether a gate is boarding or empty
Operations: Concessions and tenants
Utility charges by floor area, not by measured use
Problem, solution, impact.
How Aqueduct resolves each problem for airports, and what changes when it does.
Buried leaks and failed flush valves running for months
A live water balance across meters and sub-meters localizes the loss, routes the fix and confirms it closed at the meter.
Loss found from the balance, not the bill, and every fix verified.
Chillers staged for peak all day, gate air left on after departure
Weather-normalized baselines per building and asset show the waste in money; schedules and setpoints adjust where control is enabled.
Savings stated in money and confirmed at the meter, not estimated.
Full fresh air whether a gate is boarding or empty
Air quality per zone, overlaid with occupancy, with ventilation raised when it matters and verified back in range.
Targets held during occupied hours, with the energy cost counted.
Utility charges by floor area, not by measured use
Faults diagnosed in plain language and routed into your CMMS with the fix; early signs of failure schedule maintenance first.
Fewer reactive call-outs and closures confirmed by the equipment.
One incident, from first signal to verified fix.

Four connected products on one data layer.
Replace what should be replaced. Connect the rest.
- BMS and BAS
- EMS
- Leak and balance tools
- Tenant sub-metering analytics
- CMMS
- EAM
- Flight and gate systems stay separate
Three equal ways in: keep your BMS, replace it, or build Aqueduct in at design stage.
The questions each seat asks first.
“Can it work across terminals built in different decades?”
“Where do the carbon accreditation numbers come from?”
“Can concessions be billed on measured use?”
Standards and regulations we supply evidence for.
We supply the measured inputs. You run the program and file the report.

Europe commits without offsets
ACI EUROPE members chose net zero by 2050 with no offsetting, so every cut has to show up in metered use.
The goal goes global
All five ACI regions adopted the same target. Airports outside Europe now need a defensible baseline first.

Common questions
By reconciling meters continuously instead of waiting for a shutdown. When a terminal water balance stops closing, Aqueduct locates the gap to a riser or zone and compares it with the same hour in earlier weeks, so a buried leak stands out against normal passenger flow. See leak detection.
Yes, on the data side. Aqueduct exports measured electricity and water per tenant and concession from sub-meters reconciled to the main meters, so charges can follow use rather than floor area. Your billing system issues the bills under each lease. See tenant sub-metering.
Yes. A top 25 US airport went live on Aqueduct in two weeks with 5,000 meter points. aQ Core holds every meter in a site, terminal and zone hierarchy, so meters installed across decades and by different vendors report into one model and one water balance.
Aqueduct supplies the metered electricity, gas and fuel by building that an airport carbon footprint is built from, with baselines and a record of reductions. The airport team prepares the footprint and independent verifiers assess it for each accreditation level. See airport sustainability and reporting.
