Military Installations as Test Beds for Innovative Energy Efficiency Technologies
Tuesday, November 30, 1:45–5:00 pm

Chair:  Dr. James Galvin, SERDP and ESTCP Office – Energy and Water Program AreaKeynote:  Dr. Paul Torcellini, U.S. Department of Energy – National Renewable Energy Laboratory

DoD operates more than 500 installations with approximately 300,000 buildings and 160,000 non-tactical support vehicles. Powering these operations costs DoD nearly $4 billion annually and generates significant amounts of greenhouse gases. Recognizing the environmental, economic, and operational benefits to improving energy efficiency, DoD has committed to aggressive goals for improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To achieve these goals, DoD must rapidly implement innovative technologies capable of realizing large gains in efficiency. This session showcased emerging energy efficiency and energy management technologies being tested on DoD installations and identify potential solutions for overcoming obstacles to broad-scale implementation.
