2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 2 Energy Security Air Force Civil Engineer Center Perspective Mr Billy P. Webb, P.E. AFCEC/COSC January 16, 2013

2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 3 3 Energy Security  Energy security consist of energy sustainability and energy surety  Energy Security Definition  QDR 2010 – “Energy security for the DoD means having assured access to reliable supplies of energy”  Energy Sustainability  Primary focus on Mission Assurance  Augment commercial power with renewable energy sources  Resilient power systems and equipment to critical mission facilities  Reliable backup power for critical missions

2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 4 4 Energy Security, Cont  Energy Surety  A part of Mission Assurance  Sustaining critical operations  Future of how AF does business hinges on the proper definition  Impact on critical mission backup power systems  Impacts on Defense Critical Assets protection  Impacts on electrical system resiliency, reliability, and efficiently  Economics – Putting a price on risk  Mission Assurance requires a holistic integrated systems approach vice single installation approach

2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 5 5 Energy Security, Cont  Solar Power  Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst  McGuire – 6.0 MW ground plus roof mount PV array  Lakehurst – 5.5MW PV array  Wind Power  Cape Cod - Two wind generators and two in design  Acension Island  Protection devices failed resulting in reverse current flow  Renewable Challenges  Energy storage, generation in less than ideal conditions, maintenance

2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 6 6 Challenges  Aging utility infrastructure outside cantonment area  Reduced reliability  More vulnerable to damage/longer outage periods  Its not just about electrical power  Water quality and availability  Cannon AFB, Goodfellow AFB, Mountain home AFB  Airfield energy encroachment  High population density/rapid growth 

2013 ADC INSTALLATION INNOVATION FORUM | PAGE 7 7 Way Ahead  Develop an energy security system model consistent with Mission Assurance sustainability requirements and Energy Security policy definitions  Ex: smaller microgrids (2 or 3 buildings) within base grid with inter connect capability  Lower cost of implementation and optimal use of existing generator inventory  Ex: water sustainability through utility negotiation, acquisition, or other means  Need unconventional options on the table
