Time is short for those who have not signed up for the Joint U.S.
Army – U.S. Air Force Renewable Energy Industry Day on 12 June. There are only seats for 800, so hurry. The reported purpose for the one day conference
is to:
“bring together government and industry
leaders to discuss opportunities for public-private collaboration in renewable
energy development. Senior Army and Air
Force energy officials will provide specific direction on each service’s
renewable energy goals as well as the processes through which the Army and Air
Force are seeking to establish partnerships with the private sector. The event will serve as a forum for discussion
of the approaches and technical challenges to overcome as the military and
private sector work together to build renewable energy capacity and strengthen
energy security.”
I am sure that everyone will be waiting with bated breath
for information on the Huntsville PPA RFP, but since Huntsville is not on the
agenda and, unless the RFP is released between then and now, I suspect no one
on the agenda will address specifics. At
most, we will get a “due out date” for the RFP or at least an update on the 800+
comments made on the draft. Hope springs
eternal!
Personally, I would like to hear about what other RE opportunities
will be available from the Army (things not covered by the AEITF 10 megawatt
level of indifference) and how the reorganization of AFCESA and restructuring of third
party financing decision authority in the AF will effects their efforts. This conference is narrowly focused on RE so
conservation and efficiency folks may not be well served. As for microgrid folks, if you did not attend
either of the military microgrid conference that bookended May, you missed out….at
least until GovEnergy. See you there! Dan Nolan

Energy is one of the most important thing that we use to power up our appliances, cars, computers and other things that need energy. Because of this, many smart scientists invented the ways on how to generate electrical energy. Some of these are hydro, geothermal, windmill, and other. Although these inventions are useful, I personally believe that saving energy by simply turning our lights off at home can save the world. It is important for us as consumers to save energy by simply being a responsible citizen of our country. Thank you for sharing this useful article. (SHARED TO SOCIAL NETWORKING WEBSITES)

It is very good to know that the government together with soldiers are working for renewable energy.Everyone should be concerned about how to get a renewable energy.This is a good effort on their part.
