Description
The Dept. of Defense (DOD) spends billions of dollars per year on fuel, and is pursuing numerous initiatives for reducing its fuel needs and changing the mix of energy sources that it uses. DODäó»s energy initiatives pose several potential oversight issues for Congress, and have been topics of discussion and debate at hearings on DODäó»s proposed FY2013 budget. By some accounts, DOD is the largest organizational user of petroleum in the world and is by far the largest U.S. government user of energy. The amount of money that DOD spends on petroleum-based fuels is large in absolute terms, but relatively small as a percentage of DODäó»s overall budget. DODäó»s fuel costs have increased substantially over the last decade, to about $17 billion in FY2011. Contents of this report: Introduction; DODäó»s Use of Fuels; How DOD Buys Fuels; Challenges and Risks Associated with DODäó»s Use of Fuelsäó» DODäó»s Energy Initiatives; Past Legislation on DOD Energy Use; Issues for Congress; Appendixes. Figures and Tables.
