About this file
This document is Attachment 2 to a Department of the Air Force Request for Solution (RFS) issued under Other Transaction Authority (OTA) for a Consortium Management Organization (CMO), and it defines the five technology areas eligible for the DECo (Defense Energy Community) initiative.
The five DECo technology areas are: (1) Energy Resilience Technologies, encompassing utility-scale geothermal, advanced nuclear generation, microgrids, advanced energy storage, fuel-flexible backup generation, cybersecure onsite generation, hydrogen production, advanced energy management systems, high-performance cooling, waste-heat recovery, and advanced modeling tools for installation energy infrastructure assessment; (2) Extreme Weather Hardening Technologies, including process water treatment, stormwater and wastewater management systems, and related technologies to protect mission-critical facilities against droughts, floods, hurricanes, and other extreme weather events; (3) Resilient Facility Technologies, comprising cyber-secure building energy management communications systems, advanced building energy efficiency technologies, and construction techniques; (4) Operational Demonstrations of Energy Resilient Technologies, focusing on pre-commercial energy resilience technologies and novel applications of commercial technologies at Technology Readiness Levels 5-8 for defense purposes; and (5) Energy Services Process Prototypes, which are installation-specific prototypes integrating all energy services across an installation's entire energy delivery chain, including offsite procurement, onsite distribution infrastructure, behind-the-meter generation assets, building envelopes, and heating, cooling, and electricity loads to provide reliable, resilient, and cost-effective energy solutions.

Attachment 2: DECo Technology Areas
1. Energy Resilience Technologies: These include, but are not limited to, cutting-edge utility-scale geothermal energy technologies, advanced nuclear generation, microgrids, advanced energy storage, fuel-flexible backup generation, cybersecure and dispatchable onsite generation, geologic hydrogen and hydrogen production, advanced energy management systems, high-performance cooling systems, waste-heat recovery systems, and advanced modeling tools to design and assess the resilience and reliability of installation energy distribution infrastructure.
2. Extreme Weather Hardening Technologies: These include process water treatment technologies, stormwater and wastewater management systems, and other technologies and systems needed to withstand droughts, floods, hurricanes, and other extreme weather so mission critical facilities remain energy resilient and operational.
3. Resilient Facility Technologies: These include, but are not limited to, cyber-secure building energy management communications systems, advanced building energy efficiency technologies, and building construction techniques and technologies.
4. Operational Demonstrations of Energy Resilient Technologies: Demonstrations of pre-commercial energy resilience technologies and novel applications of commercial energy resilience technologies for defense purposes (e.g., Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 5-8).
5. Energy Services Process Prototypes: Installation-specific process prototypes that integrate all energy services across an installation’s entire energy delivery chain – offsite commodity procurement, onsite distribution infrastructure upgrades, behind-the-meter generation assets, building envelopes, and building heating, cooling, and electricity loads – to provide reliable, resilient, and cost-effective energy to meet mission owner requirements.
