systems; install solar panels on shelters; integrate light-emitting diode (LED) exterior lighting; improve power distri- bution; maximize power utilization at a central power plant; and integrate other selected technologies.
Contingency Basing Integrated Tech- nology Evaluation Center—This initiative, conducted in coordination with Headquarters, U.S. Army Train- ing and Doctrine Command Maneuver Support Center of Excellence, will establish a dedicated multiuse site for assessing contingency base technologies, construction designs, and techniques to improve the efficiency, sustainability, and survivability of existing and future medium-to-large base camps.
WATER RECYCLING AND REUSE
A new shower water reuse system, such as this one under evaluation at the SIL at Fort Devens, can capture and reuse 75 percent of shower wastewater, saving millions of gallons of water each year. (U.S. Army photo by David Kamm.)
have been considered “exceptional” in years past now becomes the “norm.” Commanders and operators should value energy as a resource and employ it as a tactical and operational enabler. Most important, all Soldiers should understand the direct correlation between operational energy and Soldier risk: The higher the volume of energy used in operations, the higher the potential for casualties.
Brigade Modernization Command (BMC) Network Integration Evalu- ation (NIE)—LIA is working closely with BMC staff to explore the potential for energy and contingency basing oper- ational testing in future NIE iterations. The NIE series of experimentation events has become a critical element
of the Army’s strategy for testing new capabilities and solutions that will ben- efit deployed forces.
Smart and Green Energy (SAGE) for Base Camps—The SAGE for Base Camps project will demonstrate an integrated smart micro-grid design for medium-sized forward operating base camps. The goal is to develop an Army Facilities Components System electrical grid specification. The design is targeted for a 30 to 60 percent reduction in JP-8 fuel demand for power generation.
Kuwait Energy Efficiency Capability—This initiative, to be conducted at Camp Buehring, Kuwait, will replace tents with relocatable energy-efficient shelters and split heat- ing, ventilation, and air-conditioning
Future Base Camps—Consistent with the Army G-4’s innovation, discovery, and exploration role, LIA is conduct- ing preliminary research on future base camps that leverage the results of ongo- ing work such as SAGE, with the goal being potential alternative energy solu- tions, plug-in stations for electric vehicles, and improved vehicle component reli- ability and efficiency, all to drive down maintenance, support, and fuel costs.
Advanced Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) Power Source—The TEG ini- tiative will deliver a power source for use at dismounted squad and platoon lev- els that can recharge squad batteries in two hours or less, thereby reducing the number of batteries that must be car- ried on missions of more than 72 hours.
Sustain the Mission Project (SMP)— The SMP is a decision support tool that allows Army action officers, analysts, and decision makers to evaluate and prioritize energy choices by calculat- ing the fully burdened cost of fuel and benefits. The tool provides input for cost-benefit analysis to support acqui- sition, logistics, and other resource decisions. In addition, SMP helps in evaluating energy technology trade-offs.
