As geopolitical threats intensify around the globe, there are several defense-related modernization efforts underway that address the need for improved mission effectiveness while also increasing energy resilience and reducing fossil fuel dependency. At the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD), Deputy Secretary Kathleen Hicks has been championing energy innovation. She has publicly stated “it has to do with national security and what it takes to have the capabilities we need for the warfighter today and going forward. That alignment with climate goals is excellent for us.”
