The document summarizes the U.S. Navy's efforts to increase energy efficiency and use of alternative fuels to meet energy goals. It discusses the Navy's transition from sail to coal, oil, nuclear, and biofuel power sources over time. The Navy's goals include having 50% of energy come from alternative sources by 2020 and demonstrating a "Great Green Fleet" powered by biofuels by 2016. The Navy is focusing on energy efficiency through technologies like solar, wind, and geothermal at installations and biofuels and efficient systems on ships and aircraft to cut costs and increase security.

1. Sailing the Great Green Fleet HON. Jackalyne Pfannenstiel Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Energy, Installations & Environment) October 4, 2011

2. 2 Naval Power Sail Coal Oil Nuclear Biofuels 1855: USS Constellation, the last all-sail warship 2012: The Great Green Fleet 1911: USS Paulding, first oil-fueled battleship 1961: USS Enterprise, first nuclear aircraft carrier 1774: USS Alfred, Navy’s first battleship 1955: USS Nautilus, first nuclear submarine 2009: First Navy aircraft engine tested on biofuel blend 1907: Great White Fleet (16 coal battleships) 1814: Fulton the First: Navy's first steam-powered warship 2010: First flight of F/A-18 Hornet on biofuel blend

3. Why is the Navy Focused onEnergy Efficiency? Energy independence and security War-fighting jeopardy Cost consequences 3 “ We buy too much fossil fuel from … volatile places on earth. We buy our energy from people who may not be our friends.” Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, August 30, 2011 - For every 50 fuel convoys, one Marine is killed or wounded. - A $1.00 increase in the price of a barrel of oil imposes a $30 million cost to the Navy.

4. Department of Navy’s Energy Goals By 2020, 50% of total Department energy consumption will come from alternative sources. By 2020, at least 50% of shore-based energy requirements will be met by alternative sources; 50% of Department installations will be net-zero. By 2015, the Department will reduce petroleum use in vehicles by 50%. The “Great Green Fleet”: By 2012, the Department will demonstrate a Green Strike Group in local operations and will sail it by 2016. Evaluation of energy factors will be mandatory when awarding contracts for systems and buildings. 4

5. Navy’s Energy Use in Context Petroleum Consumption 2008 Federal Government, 2% Other Federal Government, 7% Army, 9% Department of Navy, 34% Department of Defense, 93% Civilian, 98% Air Force, 57% United States U.S. Government Department of Defense In FY2008, the Department of the Navyused 30 million barrels of petroleum. 5

30. Biofuels 12 Departments of Navy, Energy, and Agriculture to partner with private industry to stimulate the domestic biofuels industry. Navy will invest in and buy from alternative fuel refineries that meet given criteria: Drop-in fuels meeting military specs Commercial-scale Competitively priced Geographically diverse locations No impact on food supply $170 million per agency; at least 50% cost share with industry.
