Adv Elec Energy Con Ad

Abstract

The Tactical Electric Power (TEP) program was established by the Department of Defense to develop modernized, standard families of mobile electric power sources and power distribution systems for all Services throughout the Department of Defense. Project Manager Expeditionary Energy & Sustainment Systems (PM E2S2) matures and integrates technology that will improve the next generation of tactical power sources in support of all Services. It supports initiatives that are essential to the development and fielding of modernized TEP sources from Watts to Megawatts level that will extend Army operational mission reach and duration through the improvements to efficiency, reliability, maintainability, and interoperability in support of the Army Operating Concept and Multi-Domain Battle. FY19 funding will support test and evaluation of technologies in support of Small Tactical Electric Power (STEP), Management and Distribution Control (MDC), and Command Post Infrastructure Integration (CPI2). Technologies include hybrid power systems, open architecture tactical microgrids, command post infrastructure, and validated methods to prove out suitability and effectiveness. Funding also supports the Joint Operational Energy Initiative (JOEI), a holistic Modeling and Simulation approach to the evaluation of Operational Energy (OE)-related theater-wide impacts of systems and improvements with the vision of reducing Army energy dependency and demand. Program costs include developing concept hardware and executing system evaluations at Army demonstration events and exercises (AEWE, AWA, etc.)
