US Army Reaches $1 Billion in Energy-saving Projects
Army has contracted for 127 individual projects, or task orders, totaling $1.015 billion
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Army announced it has surpassed the $1 billion mark in energy savings performance contracts and utility energy services contracts in less than five years. This is in response to President Obama’s challenge to all federal agencies to achieve a total investment of $4 billion before the end of 2016.
The Army Materiel Command’s Anniston Army Depot awarded a utility energy service contract, valued at approximately $20 million, to reach the milestone. This contract will enhance the Army’s readiness efforts by allowing Anniston to run more effective and efficient daily operations.
