Power Surety Task Force (PSTF)
Abstract
The Power Surety Task Force (PSTF) was created to reduce the fossil fuel requirement within the Department of Defense (DoD) and was the operational arm for the Energy Security Task Force. This project provided funds for essential technical and engineering services to complete demonstration and installation of alternative energy saving measures at fixed, forward-deployed overseas locations, and to support stand-up of the newly authorized DoD Office of Operational Energy Plans and Programs (DOEP&P). The objective of the PSTF is to identify and demonstrate potential energy solutions and pursue procurement of prototypes from Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) and Government Off The Shelf (GOTS) sources to assist DoD efforts to operationalize efficient structures and devices, intelligent power management, and alternative/ renewable power generation. The PSTF will assist DoD coordination efforts within the Energy Security Task Force to synthesize, coordinate, and report on programs/projects within the services that address platforms, futures, and installations in order to reduce the operational, economic and environmental vulnerabilities associated with the use and transportation of fossil fuels and other forms of non-renewable energy.
