7 Army Energy Initiatives Office Created to foster support of renewable energy projects on Army lands Dedicated solely to working with private sector to execute large-scale projects Will publish playbooks on the Army s process to be available publically Army owns 15 million acres of land, 1/3 could be used for buffering and renewable energy infrastructure The Army needs an additional 2.1 million MWh of renewable energy and $7.1 Billion in private investment to meet the goal of 25% renewable energy by 2025.

8 Air Force Energy Program Policy Aiming to reduce infrastructure energy use by installing solar panels and wind turbines 14.2 MW solar array at Nellis AFB 1.5 MW wind turbine at Massachusetts Military Reservation Three Part Strategy Reduce Demand reduce installation energy intensity by 3% annually Increase Supply 25% renewable energy target by 2025, currently around 6% Change the Culture identify/develop energy sources on underutilized land

9 Navy Energy Program Partner with industry to develop needed technology Completed alternative energy projects MGAGCC Twenty-Nine Palms 1.1 MW (solar) Naval Base Coronado >1.0 MW (solar) MCLB Barstow 1.5 MW (wind) SECNAV Renewable Energy Goals for % of shore based energy requirements from alternative sources 50% of Department of Navy s energy consumption from alternative sources 50% of facilities to be net zero
