Powering the Force
Abstract
Powering the Force technology investments improve the energy security of military missions through innovation that save lives, lower costs, increase resilience, and strengthen warfighting capabilities while lowering carbon emissions. Specific technology innovations 1) Expand energy sources creating energy-at-the-edge through innovative synfuel production and providing power, fuel, and heat from waste; 2) Increase efficiencies of aviation platforms through novel engine/propulsion advances and alternate fuel use; 3) Deliver on the promise of tactical microgrid savings with energy storage and standardization for interoperability across US and coalition forces; 4) transition real cold-weather and energy storage solutions for hard to reach locations; and 6) Diversify, and harden for military use, distribution options and that increase operational reach and resilience
