<p>The objective of this Joint Applied Project was to analyze the feasibility for production of renewable energy on  DoD installations and focus on renewable energy initiatives undertaken at Nellis AFB, NV. This project examines  the necessary criteria and preconditions for consideration of renewable energy production on DoD installations  and how the Government establishes contracting devices with local power generating companies. This project  analyzes the Nellis AFB initiative as a model because of its commitment in meeting DoD renewable energy goals  while saving taxpayer dollars and demonstrating the feasibility of producing energy without fossil fuels. Strengths  and weaknesses of the renewable energy requirements generation and contracting processes used by Nellis AFB  are captured and analyzed. Additionally, this project provides a recommendation of whether or not the analyzed  processes used for the Nellis AFB initiative can be utilized, in part or in whole, at other Air Force bases.
