WASHINGTON, June 14, 2011 – Deputy Defense Secretary William J. Lynn III released the department’s new operational energy strategy today.
Lynn said. It spent $15 billion on energy last year, 75 percent of which was for military operations. The department’s gasoline costs are up 225 percent from a decade ago.
Lynn said there is “a clear connection” between innovation and energy technology. The strategy addresses energy needs as a broad, military challenge and calls for reducing demand, improving efficiency and lowering costs.
Everyone is looking at going Green and Conserving. The time is now and I hope WTCTs claims and plan gets rolling.
