Marine Corps Installations Command

 

Bases to Battlefield

To provide policy, conduct programming and oversee the execution of programs and functions relating to Energy, Utilities and Facilities Operations/ Services across the Marine Corps in order to fully and cost-effectively support Marine Corps readiness and quality of life.

October is National Energy Action Month, as designated by our Commander-in-Chief and supported by the Office of the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of the Navy. MCICOM GF-1 is excited to help drive Energy Action Month activities across Marine Corps Installations throughout the month of October. The goals of Energy Action Month are to raise awareness about energy use and encourage energy-saving actions in Marines, civilians, and their families. It is MCICOM’s hope that efficient actions learned during Energy Action Month will become sustained habits, leading to increased mission effectiveness, enhanced energy security, and reduced costs. http://www.mcicom.marines.mil/Units/GFFacilities/EnergyActionMonth.aspx

"Energy is a valuable resource that is critical for Marine Corps readiness and success. To be effective, we must use energy efficiently. We must develop ways to reduce our use and explore new technologies both on the battlefield and on our installations."
