Enterprise Energy Information Systems and Management

Abstract

Recognizing that energy is a strategic resource, the Department of the Navy has set aggressive energy goals to achieve our objectives. At the same time, we must meet a multitude of federal energy laws designed to decrease our dependence on fossil fuels. The Navy's Shore Energy Strategy is to assure our energy security while meeting our goals and legal requirements by focusing on energy efficiency; transforming our culture and behavior; and integrating sustainable infrastructure and viable renewable energy systems. The Naval District Washington (NDW) working with Commander Naval Installations Command (CNIC) and the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) has embarked on a series of related projects designed to maximize energy and personnel resources, while leveraging proven new technologies with the goal of achieving significant reductions in energy utilization and provide for enhanced security and responsiveness of the base/installation infrastructure support organization. At the heart of this effort is the Navy's SmartGrid Pilot Program in NDW being spearheaded by the NDW Regional Chief Information Officer (N6) and the NDW Regional Engineer (N4). The Navy SmartGrid Pilot will bring together the foundational SmartGrid Platform IT technologies, such as Enterprise Industrial Control Systems (EICS), Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), and Virtual Perimeter Monitoring System (VPMS) solutions that NDW has been implementing throughout the Region, along with integration efforts with existing and proposed NAVFAC Business Systems. In addition NDW is expanding the integration of other Shore Platform Systems such as Access Control Systems and the integration of other building automation systems such as lighting control and elevator control systems into an expanded solution called Cognitive Energy Management solutions (CEMS).
