WASHINGTON  -- The Army announced today that it is likely to execute  
$800 million in alternative financed energy efficiency projects in  
the next two years, more than double the amount that will be asked of  
the Army as part of the Federal Government's efforts to meet the  
requirements set forth in President Obama's December 2, 2011

Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Energy and Sustainability,  
Richard Kidd IV, made the announcement during the Seventh Annual

"Powering the People 2.0."
