Air Force Soliciting Financing-Backed Prototypes to Advance Energy Resiliency at Military Bases - top government contractors - best government contracting event

The Department of the Air Force is seeking prototypes of cost-effective, resilient and renewable energy systems that can be deployed to military bases and facilities.

The service has released a Commercial Solutions Opening inviting investors and innovators to propose a business model for a long-term technology that can help achieve the Department of Defense’s goal of being 99.9 percent energy resilient by 2030.

According to the CSO, the Air Force is looking for a turnkey project that requires little or no upfront cost to the government. The proposal must be amenable to behind-the-meter or grid-connected power generation, or a hybrid of both.

The technologies may involve energy efficiency strategies, singular energy storage or microgrids, and infrastructure cybersecurity, the service branch stated.

DAF is eyeing Joint Base Andrews in Maryland and Arnold Air Force Base in Tennessee as the first experimental sites for the chosen prototypes.

Interested vendors may submit their responses until April 7.
