mission

In order to maintain mission readiness, achieve mandates, and reduce energy costs, Marine Corps installations will:

1. Ensure a secure and reliable energy supply to support the operating forces and their families through the prudent management of energy resources and infrastructure.
2. Achieve requirements mandated by Congress and the President to promote the efficient use of energy and water, increase the use of renewable energy sources, and reduce our nation’s dependence on foreign oil.
3. Reduce the lifecycle operating costcosts of Marine Corps facilities and manage future commodity price volatility.
