• Energy goals today
• Air Force UESC Guidelines
• UESC Opportunities – Current & Future
• Next Steps
Energy Goals…then... 2002
• Federal Energy Conservation Goals• Executive Order 13123
• 35% reduction in BTU/sq ft by 2010• Legislation on tap to potentially increase to
45% reduction by 2020
Energy Goals…now• New Energy Policy Act (EPACT 2005)• New Energy Reduction Goal – reduce 3% annually
by 2015• Goal assessed on energy per square foot versus
new 2003 baseline• New Renewable Energy Goal (purchased and self-
generated as percent of electric consumed) • 3% in 2007-2009• 5% in 2010-2012• 7.5% in 2013
• Federal Facility Metering• Federal facilities need to be metered by October
1, 2012
UESC Air Force Guidelines• Projects which “Demonstrate an Economic Return
on Investment” (10 USC 2911 and 2913)• Limit the term of the agreement to life expectancy of
equipment• Appropriated funds may be used for UESC projects;
10 USC 2913 gives option to finance, not a requirement
• All third party financed projects must be approved by the AF Civil Engineer (AF/A7C)
• Approval Process – Installation, MAJCOM Energy Office, HQ AFCESA, AF/A7C (Headquarters Air Force)
