Peterson Air Force Base

Library > Energy

The 21st Civil Engineer Squadron energy office is kicking into high gear its efforts to reduce overall energy consumption on base, as directed by federal mandates, the Department of Defense and Air Force goals.

Peterson AFB has been reducing its energy consumption since 2007, when the federal legislation and DoD mandates were introduced. The mandates require a 30 percent reduction in energy consumption by 2015.

On this page are energy saving ideas, success stories and more so you can help the wing and the Air Force meet its energy saving goals.
