Download or read book A Survey of DoD Facility Energy Management Capabilities written by Jeffrey A. Drezner and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 1998 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the constrained budget environment of recent years, the Department of Defense (DoD) has placed increasing emphasis on enhancing installation & infrastructure management capabilities. Energy management is an important component of infrastructure management. DoD has a facility energy conservation goal of reducing consumption by 30 percent by the year 2005 (measured on a square foot basis from a 1985 baseline). At the same time, DoD is attempting to comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations, many of which have implications for energy management choices. However, shrinking defense budgets, downsizing & restructuring, & various management reforms are shifting emphasis away from energy management at DoD installations. This report documents RAND research assessing DoD's current capability to achieve energy policy goals at DoD installations. The authors identify what capability currently exists at DoD installations for implementing energy policy effectively & identify ways o enhance that capability through improved training & policy implementation.
Download or read book Preliminary Assessment of Factors Affecting DoD Facility Energy Management Capabilities written by Jeffrey A. Drezner and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 1994 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DoD is the largest single energy using organization in the U.S. Achieving DoD's energy conservation goals has become increasingly important in a tight budget environment. This report documents Phase 1 of a larger study examining DoD's energy management capabilities and ways to enhance those capabilities. Energy management includes both technical (e.g., project design) and non-technical (e.g., education and awareness) activities. Based on extensive interviews of energy managers throughout DoD, we have identified several categories of factors affecting energy program success, including organizational factors, training and experience, communication and interactions, resources, and metrics and measuring. These areas suggest where energy policy emphasis should be placed.

Download or read book Environmental Programs Audit Coverage of DoD Energy Management written by and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this report is to summarize issues identified in audit reports on DoD energy management of buildings and facilities. Energy efficiency and conservation is an area requiring effective management and emphasis because of rising energy prices and potential supply problems in the United States. DoD leads the Federal Government with approximately 2.2 billion square feet of facilities. In FY 2000, the energy bill for military installations exceeded $2.4 billion. Executive Order 13123, Greening the Government Through Efficient Energy Management, June 3, 1999, and the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2002 require DoD to significantly improve its energy management and to report annually progress made toward achieving goals for reductions in energy consumption.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NREL's Intelligent Campus program leverages its own laboratory buildings as research instruments to study renewable energy, energy efficiency, and energy storage, integration, and analysis with real, quantitative measurements. At the heart of NREL's Intelligent Campus program is its Energy Management Information System (EMIS), a family of tools and services used to manage building and campus energy use. NREL's EMIS includes capabilities, such as benchmarking and monthly utility tracking, interval meter analytics, equipment fault detection and diagnostics, condition-based monitoring, and supervisory control, enabling unprecedented energy management capabilities. The system serves as a demonstration project for other federal facilities interested in learning about its design, features, and benefits.

Download or read book Energy Optimization in DOD Facilities written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A static linear programming formulation (management tool) of energy optimization problems on military bases has been developed to assist each of the military services in their planning activities and budgetary allocation decisions. Several objective functions have been defined, resulting in two types of model capabilities: minimization of capital costs (investments) subject to a number of energy and dollar constraints and the maximization of energy savings subject to capital and operating fund budget restrictions and minimum energy performance goals. The management tool defines various levels of aggregation in terms of: (1) geographical boundaries; (2) end-use energy demand; (3) building type characteristics; (4) conservation options; (5) renewable energy and alternative fuel technologies; and (6) a limited set of advanced energy technology options. Both a technical description of and a user's guide to the principal model components and operational attributes of the constructed DOD energy optimization model are presently being prepared. Two key questions are briefly reviewed within the context of preliminary results obtained from application of the developed model to two Air Force Logistics Command installations: (1) the geographical distribution of military construction dollars under a set of budgetary and energy performance constraints; and (2) the selection of energy supply technologies - conventional conservation, renewable, and advanced - that simultaneously meet demand at least cost and satisfy a set of conflicting energy and budgetary goals. Temporal aspects of the problem are handled on a year-by-year basis, with information from a previous year's optimal investment and associated energy savings included in each succeeding year's decision criteria. Benefits and costs of the budgetary and energy allocation results are evaluated as part of the allocation decisions.

Download or read book A Preliminary Survey of Department of Energy Microelectronics Capabilities Related to Department of Defense Needs written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined how key selected Department of Energy (DOE) laboratory capabilities align with Department of Defense (DoD) microelectronics requirements. DoD microelectronics, electronic materials, and electronic integration technology requirements were identified in the annual Defense Technology Area Plan (DTAP). An analysis of open information was used to select the key DOE laboratories with focused activities in the microelectronics area. The selected organizations were visited by the study team. The resulting analysis shows that the selected DOE laboratories and facilities have strong microelectronics capabilities in a wide range of areas relevant to the DTAP areas examined. A number of opportunities are identified for cooperative DoD-DOE microelectronics activities. Recommendations are made on areas of further analysis particularly in better coordinating and managing the defense interests across agencies.
