Department of Defense Energy Management Plan, 1980

Abstract

The central purpose of the defense energy management program is to assure that the armed forces of the United States have sufficient energy resources to maintain the training, operational readiness, and the combat capability of the strategic and tactical forces. This includes a broad range of interrelated energy programs which include petroleum supply assurance, energy self-sufficiency, and energy conservation and efficiency. Two distinct sets of proposals emerged from the workshop: One set is readily implementable modest program of joint activities as described in 'Individual Working Group Findings'; and The other set is a number of major 'system-side' proposals in the Government-wide implications that require significant evaluation and coordination before they can be implemented (at least one of these proposals-- FAST--may require new legislative action).
