Renewables and Energy Efficiency Planning Study (REEP)

Abstract

The purpose of the REEP Study was to develop and apply an analytical methodology for evaluating the economic potential for investment in energy efficiency and renewable energy at Army facilities. The methodology provides a logical framework for integrating and analyzing US energy and environmental policy, Army energy and environmental goals, Army programming and budgeting, and public and private sector funding. The core of the REEP methodology is a multiobjective mathematical programming model that can quickly generate and analyze optimal renewable energy and energy efficiency investment strategies for Army facilities on an annual basis through FY 2005. The model maximizes cost, energy, load, and pollutant savings for individual or combinations of renewable and conservation investments while explicitly considering budget constraints, energy and environmental goals, and economies of scale. REEP was sponsored by the US Army Chief of Engineers. Renewable energy, Energy efficiency, Energy conservation opportunities (ECO).
