3rd Annual DoD Energy & Power Summit

The 3rd Annual DoD Energy and Power Summit will focus on the technologies and policies necessary to support greater energy efficiency, resiliency, affordability and environmental sustainability for the Department of Defense for both fixed and mobile environments at home and abroad. DSI’s Summit will bring together senior members of the Military Services, DoD, Federal Government, Industry & Academia in a ‘Town-Hall’ style forum for active dialogue and the interchange of ideas and knowledge over two days. 

As military technology continues to rapidly develop, from weapon systems ashore and afloat to advanced Solider sensors and tactical electric vehicles the power needs and supporting infrastructure of these systems evolves and grows as well and will require unique capabilities to be delivered to diverse and austere environments.

Technologies and methods will have to be developed in order to guarantee that American forces will have the power needed to complete any mission, anytime, anywhere.

At the same time, aging infrastructure and the threat of natural disasters and enemy attacks have left DoD bases and installations vulnerable. In 2020, the Army, Navy and Air Force have all released updated energy installation strategies that impact the current energy and power systems and inform the capability expectations and needs of these systems for future installations.

Our current Administration has deemed climate change the “greatest threat” to US national security and historic commitments to climate action and clean energy are underway to address this threat. DoD has stood up a Climate Advisory Group to help inform DoD’s critical role in fulfilling those commitments and help the Services in their future planning.

DSI’s Summit directly supports these DoD and Federal Government priorities by providing a forum for officials to efficiently reach audiences outside of their respective offices that directly impact their department's mission success, at no charge to the government, and in an efficient expenditure of time.

Join us to engage in this critical dialogue and walkaway with new knowledge gained and an expanded network.
