The world is faced with an energy supply and demand challenge that greatly impacts the U.S. Air Force's ability to organize, equip, and train for today and tomorrow's war. For several decades the United States and its military became accustomed to relatively steady and cheap energy based upon petroleum. That model has been shattered during the past 5 years as a barrel of oil approached and passed an all time high of $112/barrel. The Air Force spent over $1.1 billion to operate its 166 installations in 2006. This paper looks at renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal technology available today that could potentially reduce the cost of operating each base. These renewable sources of energy could also stabilize base operating costs so they don't fluctuate with each change of the world oil market.
