Navy Energy Program

Abstract

This program supports projects to evaluate, adapt, and demonstrate energy related technologies for Navy aircraft and ship operations to: (a) increase fuel-related weapons systems capabilities such as range and time on station; (b) reduce energy costs; (c) apply energy technologies that improve environmental compliance; (d) examine restrictive fuel specification requirements to reduce cost and increase availability worldwide; (e) provide guidance to fleet operators for the safe use of commercial grade or off-specification fuels; and (f) make needed periodic changes to fuel specifications to ensure fuel quality and avoid fleet operating problems. This program supports the achievement of legislated, White House, Department of Defense, and Navy energy management goals. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under ADVANCED COMPONENT DEVELOPMENT AND PROTOTYPES because it includes all efforts necessary to evaluate integrated technologies, representative models or prototype systems in a high fidelity and realistic operating environment.

Change Summary Explanation
Schedule: 0838 - Emerging Platform CONOPS added FY20 1Qtr through 4Qtr FY24 and Maintain Operational Compatibility 1Qtr FY18 through 4Qtr FY24 is to support the increased requirements of emerging systems and operational scenarios placed on tactical fuels and the need to conduct testing to ensure acceptable fuel performance or identify the fuel property and/or chemistry that needs to be modified. Mitigation of Field Fuel Deficiencies and Fuel Quality Surveillance changes are added for clarity. Technical: Not applicable. The funding decreases in FY 2018 and FY 2019 reflect a shift in Department of the Navy (DoN) priorities and an urgent requirement to address emergent, critical unfunded requirements in FY 2018. The decrease aligns Energy program funding to the previous amounts executed prior to FY 2011.
