Report To The Secretary Of Defense






DOD Energy Monitoring And Control Systems

--Potential For Nonenergy Savings

--Better Planning And Guidance Needed


In addition to reducing energy costs, compu-
terized energy monitoring and control systems
offer the potential to reduce personnel and
maintenance costs. Funding these systems un-
der current energy savings criteria does not
permit the Department of Defense to take full
advantage of the nonenergy savings features.
Also:

    --Installations program systems without
    knowing if they have selected those
    buildings which will be the most cost
    effective in saving energy.

    --Expected savings due to using such
    systems are not achieved because of
    reduced project scopes or inaccurate
    assumptions.

    --The military services need to further
    consider the potential economies of
    joint-use systems.

GAO recommends actions which will assist
the Secretary of Defense in overcoming these
problems.
