Energy Management

Goal: Integrated automated asset and energy data for decision making Requirements:

► Meet Garrison Mission Requirements ► ► Energy - Laws, Regulations, Executive Orders, Policy, Guidance Cyber Security Requirements

Science:

► Energy Systems ► ► ► Facility Operations Energy Measurement Energy reporting

Art:

► ► ► ► Data Integration for Comprehensive Energy Management Integrated Project Planning (prioritization) Project Funding Sources Reduce O&M costs while reducing energy costs

Do this when there are cuts in:

► ►

Personnel Funding
