Abstract
The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) supports the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) in developing systems-level energy strategies and leading-edge technologies necessary to accomplish operational and installation energy objectives. By collaborating with the only U.S. national laboratory solely dedicated to advanced renewable energy, energy efficiency, and energy systems integration, DoD can leverage NREL's facilities and expertise to accelerate achievement of the following energy objectives: provide reliable, flexible, and resilient supplies of energy to meet current installation and mission needs; improve future warfighting capabilities by leveraging integrated, resilient, and efficient energy systems that reduce logistics and operational risks; validate technologies and provide systems-level analysis to increase energy surety and resiliency; expand the supply of distributed (on-site) energy for mission assurance at DoD installations; improve the energy grid and storage resilience at DoD installations; and improve control system cybersecurity at mission-critical facilities.
