San Francisco Airport:
Energy Management Control System

Studio 151 was contracted as Project Management Support Services for the Project Manager. The $76 million Energy Management Control System (EMCS) is a utility management and consumption tool for building management for indoor air quality and campus level metering. EMCS inter-operates with existing systems used at the Airport, provides stakeholders with toolsets geared toward mechanical maintenance, electrical operations, mechanical engineering, and technology infrastructure, and empowers each Airport user of EMCS the ability to glean insights into the health and long-term sustainable ownership of Airport Systems. EMCS is a critical tool to achieve the Airport's Strategic Plan Goal #2 of Net Zero Energy by 2021. In 2019, as part of the EMCS Program, SFO’s Airfield Operations Facility, an essential facility, was certified as the first Zero Net Energy (ZNE) airport building.
