Operational Energy Capability Improvement
Abstract
The Operational Energy Capability Improvement Fund (OECIF) incentivizes science and technology (S&T) to promote long-term change in DoD capabilities so they are better aligned with the National Defense Strategy. OECIF fosters innovation to improve operational energy performance and has two key mission aspects: first, to develop operational energy technologies and practices that will improve DoD military capabilities or reduce costs; and second, to establish within the military Services institutional momentum to continue those innovations. OECIF serves as “seed money” to start or consolidate promising operational energy innovation to be sustained by the Services. Accordingly, OECIF generally emphasizes supporting or establishing programs rather than one-off projects.
