Signed 23 February 2017 by the Acting Secretary of the Army

Key Elements of the Strategy Include:

Supports the Army’s ability to project power and support global operations

Sets a requirement to secure critical missions by providing necessary energy and water for a minimum of 14 days

Sets a requirement for sustainment of all installation missions

o Secure Critical Missions

o Assured Access to Resource Supply

o Reliable Infrastructure Condition

o Effective System Operations

Key Next Steps:

Develop business rules for defining and assessing energy and water security risks and for prioritizing mitigation actions

Assess programming resources to address gaps in critical energy and water security requirements and submit a resourcing strategy

• Comprised of 137,520 solar panels, the project

supports the delivery of renewable energy to

about 4,300 homes per year

• The Army and Georgia Power Company signed

a 35- year easement for the land on which the

project sits

• Fort Gordon will continue to procure power from

Georgia Power Company through an existing

GSA Areawide contract

• Energy generated by the project will be delivered

to the grid as part of Georgia Power Company’s

retail portfolio

• Georgia Power Company, owned by Southern

Company, finances, owns, operates, and

maintains the large-scale renewable energy solar

project

The project is located on approximately

270 acres of land on Fort Gordon

Renewable Energy and Resilience Project:

Schofield Barracks, HI

• 50 MW biofuel-capable power generation plant

• During normal ops, power will flow off-base to

grid serving Army and Oahu

• During contingency ops, plant will provide

50 MW of “first call” and blackstart capability

to three Army installations simultaneously:

o 5 days of fuel storage onsite at plant

o 30 days of fuel storage on island

• 50 MW of firm power is sufficient to meet

100% of peak electricity requirements at

Schofield Barracks, Wheeler Army Airfield,

and Field Station Kunia

Army outgrant of 10 acres at

Schofield Barracks

Third Party Energy Resilience and Security Project:

Fort Hood, TX

Army’s largest single renewable energy project to date

15 MW Solar 50 MW Wind

• Estimated capacity of approximately 65 megawatts (MW)

alternating current (AC)

• Army’s first hybrid (wind and solar) renewable energy project

• Uses offsite wind and onsite solar generation

• Operational since June 2017

• Long-term Power Purchase Agreement
