Operational Energy Prototyping (OEP)
Abstract
Operational Energy Prototyping (OEP) will identify and demonstrate the most promising, innovative, and cost-effective technologies and methods that address joint high-priority operational energy requirements. OEP will invest in prototyping and demonstrations in four focus areas: (1) support prototype development of new operational energy technologies, (2) carry out formal demonstrations at installations or in conjunction with exercises conducted by the Joint Staff, a combatant command, or a military department, (3) collect cost and performance data to overcome barriers against employing an innovative technology because of concerns regarding technical or programmatic risk, and (4) provide the tools and analysis that quantifies the mission impact of these new technologies. Transition plans for each prototype will be established to ensure that components have time to plan, program, and budget for technology transition to programs of record.
