Day 2: Session 1: Technology's Role in the "Base of the Future"

In the wake of extreme weather events such as Hurricane Michael and Super Storm Sandy, it is clear that new design standards and innovative building solutions are needed to protect military installations from the impacts of climate change. This session covers the new building requirements and new methods of fortified construction.

GCEN Executive Director Dave Robau gives closing remarks and thanks to everyone that attended and helped with Power Up Energy Expo 2020.

Military installations across the country are transitioning their utility systems and moving to implement Utility Privatization (UP). This structure offers many benefits to the installation. This session brings together Energy Service Companies and Utility Partners for a discussion around the benefits of UP with a variety of case studies.

Mr. Brian Stahl serves as the Deputy Base Civil Engineer for the 25th Civil Engineer Squadron at Tyndall Air Force Base. Check out this session and hear a first-hand account and status update on various reconstruction efforts and mission priorities at Tyndall AFB.

To build a truly resilient installation you must often look beyond the fence line. Bringing in community stakeholders is critical to the installation and building a culture of resiliency. This panel explores opportunities for new partnerships to work collaboratively to benefit both the installation and the community.

In this high-anticipated session, you will learn the Air Force’s plans to turn Tyndall Air Force Base into the “Base of the Future” and a model for other military installations. This session is moderated by Tyndall’s Program Management Office and will feature a number of innovative technologies and solutions to elevate the mission at Tyndall.
