Experience:

Defense Science Board
Bill Browning is a member of the Department of Defense’s (DoD) Defense Science Board Energy Task Force. This task force is looking at how energy is used by the DoD and how technologies and policies can help the agency become more energy efficient. These strategies will have impacts on cost, military logistics, operational continuity, force protection, and national security. Bill’s ongoing role is to help the DoD create these new energy strategies, focusing on facilities and installations. Out of this work has come the Net Zero Plus initiative of the U.S. Army’s Rapid Equipping Force, an effort to dramatically improve the energy efficiency of forward operating bases and some CONUS installations. This initiative also installs renewables with the intent of allowing installations to “island” from the power grid. Detailed Terrapin Case Studies are available in the Workroom, our private extranet full of detailed information and resources to help you make an informed decision.
