New Navy, Edison Electric Institute Collaboration for Resilience
WASHINGTON (August 10, 2023) — The United States Department of the Navy (DON) and the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) announced today the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
The MOU, signed by Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Energy, Installations, and Environment) Meredith Berger, and EEI President and CEO Tom Kuhn, establishes a framework for the two organizations to identify opportunities to align the common energy goals of the DON, its servicing electric companies, and nearby communities.
Relationships between America’s investor-owned electric companies and the Department of the Navy (DON) have been instrumental in increasing energy resilience, reliability, and efficiency, as well as reducing energy consumption at Navy and Marine Corps installations. The MOU will empower these relationships to identify best practices that support the energy grid, local communities, and national security interests.
