The Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Environment, Safety and Infrastructure's (SAF/IEE) Installation Energy Program is committed to improving Air Force resiliency, optimizing demand and assuring supply. The Program provides effective and efficient energy and water management policy and program oversight by developing and deploying policies and guidance to ensure the Air Force has energy secure power projection platforms in which to meet its missions.
Installation energy accounts for nearly 20% of the total Air Force energy consumption and includes the energy used to power all facilities located Air Force installation or enduring location, as well as fuel for the non-tactical fleet vehicles used at those locations and the energy consumed in manufacturing, maintenance, and other processes.
By looking across the Air Force enterprise for opportunities to be cost-effective and provide resilient, clean sources of energy, the Air Force will be able to balance the objectives of its energy projects and place an increased focus on meeting multiple objectives within single projects.

The U.S. Air Force, in conjunction with the Defense Logistics Agency-Energy (DLA Energy), is soliciting industry feedback via a Request for Information (RFI), solicitation number SP0600-19-R-0803, on a different way to manage and procure energy at an installation. This new approach, referred to as Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS), seeks a single industry provider to comprehensively and more cost-effectively deliver reliable, resilient and efficient energy to mission owners at an Air Force installation. Instructions on how to register for special access to the FedBizOpps secured site, which is required to view detailed information about the energy profile at Hanscom AFB, is available here. Responses are due by June 14 at 5 p.m. EST. For more information, please visit the EaaS RFI, solicitation number SP0600-19-R-0803, on the Federal Business Opportunities website.
October kicks off Energy Action Month (EAM). The Air Force’s EAM theme “Protect the Power” serves as a call to action for members of our Air Force community to practice energy efficient habits in their daily lives and to champion smart energy policies and procedures. Check out the Air Force Energy EAM page for downloadable materials to get you and your installation started today.
