AMERICA’S ARMY:THE STRENGTH OF THE NATION

• Office of Energy Initiatives(OEI) established to develop large scale renewable energy projects to cost effectively strengthen energy security, save money, and support the Army’s energy goals.

• Develop win-win third party financing to improve efficiency on Army installations. The Army has the most robust Energy Saving Performance Contracting program in the entire Federal government.

• Residential Community Initiatives (RCI) partners own and operate housing for Soldiers and Families. RCI employs renewables where cost effective.

• The Army’s Energy Conservation Investment Program (ECIP) funds projects that promise a significant payback via reduced energy costs.
