Description
The 4th Annual DoD Energy and Power Summit will focus on the technologies and policies necessary to support greater energy efficiency, resiliency, affordability, and environmental sustainability for the Department of Defense for both fixed and mobile environments. Attendees will hear from Military and US Government leaders about current efforts to meet the need for increased power systems in response to new, innovative, and rapidly developing military technology. In addition to requiring more power, these systems must also demonstrate greater resiliency against threats—both natural and manmade. This forum will also offer up discussions on the critical importance of having more efficient systems and installations by reducing current carbon emissions to meet DoDs future 21st Century energy goals.
