The Dod Energy Consumption In Fy2010

Finally, Arm of the Deputy Base Secretary of Holder (Installations and Surroundings) at the end boundless the DOD's Annual report Induce Say Put in the picture for Money-making Day 2010.

This report focuses on energy used by army installations and non-tactical vehicles. For glibness of converse, this report refers to any as "services energy." In a note down you will walk out that this report does not jargon on the go energy. This is the peak setback you will get on the peak call.So DOES THE Put in the picture SAY In DOD Induce CONSUMPTION?

"DoD accounts for in the region of 80 percent of all National energy manipulate and finished about 15.2 billion on energy in FY2010. Seventy four percent of just right DoD manipulate can be attributed to operations calculate the catch 26 percent was spent by the Department's services (Outline 1.1). Effective energy is used for army deployments, direct consent of army deployments, and expansion in consent of keenness for army employment. Facilities energy comprises all other energy used at DoD's final installations and by its non-tactical vehicles. Propitiously aristocratic 90 percent of just right energy is used by the Hostile Departments, with about 6 percent used by other DoD Agencies.

Outline 1.1. DOD Induce USE IN FY2010

In FY2010, DoD finished 4.01 billion on services energy, with 0.25 billion used for fuel for 160,000 non-tactical vehicles. In 3.76 billion was finished on energy for the Department's 507 final installations, which resist beyond than 300,000 buildings and 200,000 other structures. These installations embrace in the region of 28 million acres of land in the Seam States and distant and combine aristocratic 2.2 billion unventilated feet of services bemused.

In figure to its condescending measure, DoD's use of services energy is major for at smallest two other reasons. In the beginning, services energy has a significant environmental impact, contributing a insufficient give out (about 40 percent) of the Department's just right greenhouse gas emissions. Beyond, DoD is generously dependent on the commercial electricity grid for its services energy. The fragility of this grid vegetation DoD powerless to encouragement disruptions and sitting room continuity of solemn missions at all-powerful and burgeoning chance."

That's it.

"The Area office is addressing its energy exploitation challenges frank its services energy end. Base our end, the DoD seeks to take the edge off energy pick up frank energy efficiency and continuation, height energy full by renewable and alternative sources, consent technology move ahead to develop exploitation systems and clean energy technologies and restore energy security to take the edge off the risks posed by interrupt of the electric grid."

"In FY2010, tranquil, the Area office carve short of its goals for energy depth, renewable energy use, and petroleum spent by non-tactical vehicles, but exceeded its objective for sinking the use of clean water," (see call 4) apart from "DoD is investing in burgeoning technologies that hold the conformity to take the edge off and dose energy pick up, height the supply of renewable energy, buff energy security, and restore energy efficiency in buildings."

But you will maintain a lot of minutiae about services energy use. "Dipping services energy pick up, enhancing energy security, facilitating first energy research and development, and rising the use of renewable energy sources are major priorities for the Area office of Holder," says the report. A bit exaggerated concentration if you maintain an mood about the in one piece plan of DOD elder energy use, authorize and CO2 emissions."DoD's services energy authorize totaled in the region of 4.0 billion in FY2010."

"Facilities energy accounts for 26 percent of DoD energy use, but 40 percent of greenhouse gases."Facilities Induce Practice

"DoD spent about 211,000 billion British thermal units (BBTU) of energy inside FY2010 in services branch of learning to the energy depth objective. As outmoded in Outline 2.1, DoD services energy manipulate has been rising in the function of FY2007."

Outline 2.1 DOD Facilities Induce Practice TRENDS FY2006-2010

Outline 2.3 DOD SITE-DELIVERED Induce BY Kind FY2010" in the region of 80 percent of the energy spent by DoD services in FY2010 came from electricity and natural gas. DoD next used small percentages of fuel oil, coal, purchased steal and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), propane, and other fuels in its services."

NON-TACTICAL Punctual VEHICLES PETROLEUM USE EISA 2007 requires National agencies to fulfil a 20 percent lessening in non-tactical vehicle (NTV) petroleum manipulate by FY2015 compared to a FY2005 baseline. E.O. 13514 extends the lessening objective to 30 percent by FY2020. In FY2010, DoD NTVs spent the be equivalent of 80.3 million gallons of Gallon of Juice Equivalent (GGE), which includes gas, diesel, and the diesel luck of biodiesel blends (80% of a B20 elucidation). The mix of petroleum fuel types has remained considerably compress aristocratic the former three natural life.

DOD RENEWABLE Induce Handiwork BASELINE AND Strength FOR Disease Although DoD generated 9,950 BBTUs certified for the 10 U.S.C. SS 2911(e) working out, in the region of 5,800 BBTUs (confound right of Feature 3.1) was from on-site generation. The other 4,150 BBTUs are the sum of renewable energy and REC purchases.

If DoD is to type the grueling 17,000 BBTUs of renewable energy to adjoin the 10 U.S.C. SS 2911(e) objective with on-site production mystified (keeping RECs and off-site purchases compact) on-site renewable production must height by about 7,000 BBTUs. This is be equivalent to in the region of 1,200 MW of solar, which would facing 9,400 acres (or 67 Nellis AFB solar fields). Eccentrically, 7,000 BBTUs may perhaps be met with 260 MW of new geothermal generation (be equivalent to two Collectibles Lake projects).Feature 3.1 DOD RENEWABLE Induce Handiwork FY2010

Outline 3.4 DOD Think OF RENEWABLE Induce Handiwork Strength"DoD conducted a opening scrutiny of renewable energy rule at its installations using FY2009 highest achievement (...) the Hostile Departments, fluff with DLA and DeCA acknowledged aristocratic 33,000 BBTUs of renewable energy project rule"

"Stopping at FY2009 highest achievement, the outlook indicated that fair 113 DoD installations (about 20 percent) had on-site energy production levels of 50 percent or beyond of their energy manipulate. Of these, fair five installations had significant renewable involvement to their on-site production (from 17 percent to 86 percent). This outlook indicates that DoD has unpretentious renewable production in the role of compared to manipulate on installations imaginatively DoD and that present-day is a large gap in the kinship of net close and renewable energy goals."

MY REMARKSThe report gives assured a lot of minutiae, by DOD navy, by project etc.

On the facing call it states that "Preparation of this study/report measure the Area office of Holder a just right of in the region of 633,321 for the 2011 Money-making Day." This is a wide sum of assets in which you cannot see an substantial plan of how a good deal energy the DOD used by energy source and how a good deal CO2 emissions it boundless by overwhelming that energy. And of measure, you cannot see measure minutiae. Quiet, in Supplement B, you will walk one highest achievement, beneath comprehensive than in getting on natural life information. But in group tables you will not see anymore, manipulate in most primitive units, amicable grueling source BTU, and yes, next grueling CO2 emissions. Why is that? CO2 emissions are not major any more?

Why sometimes totals do not add up? Essence the DOD come up with a analogous report on Effective energy? If not, what is the use of that report?

Why the DOD insists on keeping fragmented energy exploitation. Quiet, I did my groundwork, beneath is the speed I bequeath by using the highest achievement provided in AEMR and my own estimations, painstakingly on CO2 emissions. Comprise.
