Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1970s, Congress began mandating reductions in energy consumed by fed. agencies; primarily by improving building efficiency, and reducing fossil fuel use. Early legislation mandated a 10% reduction in fed. building energy and a recent Exec. Order mandates a 30% further reduction by 2015. This report reviews energy conservation legislation and Exec. Orders that apply to the DoD. Contents: Background; Energy Efficiency Legislation; Defense Energy Policies; Defense Energy Consumption and Spending; Renewable Electric Energy Purchases; Defense Energy Efficiency Improvements; Policy Considerations and Options for Congress. Charts and tables. This is a print on demand publication.

Download or read book Energy Reduction at U S Air Force Facilities Using Industrial Processes written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DoD) is the largest consumer of energy in the federal government. In turn, the U.S. Air Force is the largest consumer of energy in the DoD, with a total annual energy expenditure of around $10 billion. Approximately 84 percent of Air Force energy use involves liquid fuel consumed in aviation whereas approximately 12 percent is energy (primarily electricity) used in facilities on the ground. This workshop was concerned primarily with opportunities to reduce energy consumption within Air Force facilities that employ energy intensive industrial processes-for example, assembly/disassembly, painting, metal working, and operation of radar facilities-such as those that occur in the maintenance depots and testing facilities. Air Force efforts to reduce energy consumption are driven largely by external goals and mandates derived from Congressional legislation and executive orders. To date, these goals and mandates have targeted the energy used at the building or facility level rather than in specific industrial processes. In response to a request from the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Energy and the Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Science, Technology, and Engineering, the National Research Council, under the auspices of the Air Force Studies Board, formed the Committee on Energy Reduction at U.S. Air Force Facilities Using Industrial Processes: A Workshop. The terms of reference called for a committee to plan and convene one 3 day public workshop to discuss: (1) what are the current industrial processes that are least efficient and most cost ineffective? (2) what are best practices in comparable facilities for comparable processes to achieve energy efficiency? (3) what are the potential applications for the best practices to be found in comparable facilities for comparable processes to achieve energy efficiency? (4) what are constraints and considerations that might limit applicability to Air Force facilities and processes over the next ten year implementation time frame? (5) what are the costs and paybacks from implementation of the best practices? (6) what will be a proposed resulting scheme of priorities for study and implementation of the identified best practices? (7) what does a holistic representation of energy and water consumption look like within operations and maintenance?

Download or read book Federal Energy Management Agencies Are Taking Steps to Meet High Performance Federal Building Requirements but Face Challenges written by Terrell Dorn and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The fed. gov¿t. is the nation's largest energy consumer. The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) establishes high-performance fed. building requirements that include reducing energy use and managing storm water runoff. The DoE, GSA, OMB, and EPA are implementing and, in turn, helping other agencies to implement EISA requirements. This report addresses: (1) what implementing agencies are doing to direct and assist other agencies in meeting key EISA high-performance federal building requirements; (2) how implementing agencies are planning to use Recovery Act funds to meet key requirements; and (3) what challenges implementing and other agencies might face.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1990s, several of the sponsor agencies of the Federal Facilities Council began developing and implementing initiatives and policies related to sustainable development. Guidance related to life-cycle costing and value engineering was recognized as being supportive of sustainable development, in particular when used in the conceptual planning and design phases of acquisition, where decisions are made that substantially effect the ultimate performance of a building over its life cycle. However, specific concerns were raised that when federal agencies apply value engineering in the final stages of design or during construction in response to cost overruns, design features that support sustainable development may be eliminated. The primary objective of this study, therefore, was to develop a framework to show how federal agencies can use value engineering and life-cycle costing to support sustainable development for federal facilities and meet the objectives of Executive Order 13123.
