Leading the Charge
More than 500 military bases encompass nearly 2 billion square feet of space with an annual energy bill of more than $3 billion. The following video shows how the U.S. military is reducing energy use as a strategic mission to save taxpayer dollars, increase domestic renewable energy supplies, and reduce dependence on foreign oil.
The side modules lead to segments within the video that demonstrate how each branch of the U.S. military is using energy savings performance contracts (ESPCs), utility energy service contracts (UESCs), on-site renewable power purchase agreements (PPAs), and other project funding to help reach aggressive energy and greenhouse gas reduction goals.
