NAVFAC Advances Navy Energy Efforts at European Installations: "Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Europe Africa Southwest Asia (EURAFSWA) spearheaded several energy contracts that will help reduce energy consumption at Navy installations in Europe.
Through an Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) and the Energy Conservation Investment Program (ECIP), installations in Spain, Greece and Italy will become 'green' facilities through renewable energy projects and system upgrades.
Capt. Jeff Borowy, commanding officer of NAVFAC EURAFSWA, credits the regional command for its spotlight on the energy program. 'They have fully supported our energy champion, Dave Deiranieh, who has developed a world-class program,' said Borowy.
A Phase I ESPC was awarded on Jan. 20, 2010 for $8.3 million for energy-related work at Naval Station (NAVSTA) Rota."
