Marine Corps Air Station Miramar - IR

Abstract

The City of San Diego and Marine Corps Air Station Miramar are exploring energy security options to benefit the installation and community jointly. The analysis identifies shared risks, hazards, and vulnerabilities of concern related to supporting the existing and operational microgrid at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar and sustainable usage of the methane produced at the Miramar Landfill long after its closure. The study highlights projects that should result in cost-effective solutions and promote long-term sustainability in community and installation infrastructure, specifically with regards to energy production and the most effective use of methane from the Miramar Landfill, operated by the City of San Diego. Community and installation planners are developing a current-state assessment, action plan, and funding plan to support continued cooperative efforts regarding energy infrastructure development activities.
