Energy Initiatives Task Force 1


• Objectives of Open House

• Army’s Energy Initiatives Task Force (EITF)

Overview

Energy Initiatives Task Force UNCLASSIFIED 2


• Foster an open dialogue with the public and private

renewable energy industry

• Provide a forum for industry to discuss their ability and

interest to develop energy projects

• Provide opportunity for renewable energy industry and public

entities to:

– Examine real property assets and mission activities at TEAD

– Learn of the potential for developing alternative/renewable

energy at TEAD

– Become familiar with the utilization of TEAD’s work-share

program

• Encourage industry to identify potential market use(s) of the

land

Open House Objectives



Why is the EITF at Tooele?

Impacts to U.S. Army’s Energy

Energy Initiatives Task Force UNCLASSIFIED



Path to 25% Renewable Energy by 2025 - Notional

Traditional Energy

Renewable Energy Requires leverage of private sector funding, EUL, PPA

Energy Efficiency Gains funded by appropriated

funding, ESPC, UESC

Major Issues

• Declining Budgets

• Specialized Expertise

• Enterprise Strategy

EITF serves as the central management office to

implement cost-effective, large-scale,

renewable energy projects on Army installations,

leveraging private sector financing.

Features:

Large-scale renewable energy projects

• Greater than 10MW

• Will coordinate with installations for 1-10MW

opportunities

• Will use land-use and third-party financing

authorities: EUL, easement, ESPC, PPA and

UESC

EITF


Energy Initiatives Task Force (EITF) established by the Secretary

of the Army on September 15, 2011.


Systematic Enterprise Approach

Where is best potential for Large Scale RE?

96 Sites, 179 Opportunities (180 Sites Total)

Where could RE be cheaper than grid

power?

90 sites for wind 39 sites for solar

10 sites for biomass

We have screened the entire Army enterprise to identify a strong bench of opportunities

Security Tier

Where is Energy Security critical?

Where are other factors to consider?

• Additional off-take • Existing utility relationships • Access to transmission • Well defined environmental

issues

The EITF will leverage existing Army authorities to meet

sustainability and renewable energy goals:

• Utility Energy Services Contracts (10 USC 2913)

• Enhanced-use Leasing (10 USC 2667)

• Easement authority (40 USC 1314)

• Acquisition of Utility Services (10 USC 590, FAR Part 41)

• Power Purchase Agreements (10 USC 2922a)

• Energy Savings Performance Contracts (42 USC 8287 )

• Cooperative Agreements (31 USC 6305)

• Sale of electrical power to Utilities from on-site, private energy generation

facilities (10 USC 2916)

• Environment, Energy and Water Efficiency, Renewable Energy

Technologies, Occupational Safety, and Drug-Free Workplace

(FAR Part 23)
