"The DOD and Energy Innovation:
Can The Military Lead the Way to Smarter Energy?"

Register Now

The U.S. military has deep resources, incentives to innovate, and a history of developing groundbreaking technologies that have spilled over into market-changing private sector applications. What can be learned from the Department of Defense when it comes to developing smarter, more renewable energy solutions?

Join The Energy Collective as we explore some examples of the most exciting energy technologies at the U.S. Navy, where the greatest opportunities for knowledge-sharing lie, and whether the military can serve as a model for innovation elsewhere. We'll ask:
  • What are the DOD's goals when it comes to energy, and how do these overlap with those of the energy industry?
  • Can DOD ideas offer lessons for improving energy sustainability more broadly?
  • What are the challenges and economic obstacles to bringing a DOD-innovated idea to market?
