Executive Summary of Energy Saving Opportunity Survey (ESOS) for Ft. McClellan Army Post, Anniston, Alabama.

In 1980 through 1982 a Basewide Energy Systems Plan BESP was developed under the direction of the Corps of Engineers at Ft. McClellan to assist the installation in meeting the requirements of the Army Facilities Energy Plan and the ten 10 year Energy Use Reduction Goal. Some of the energy saving projects recommended by the BESP have been implemented. In FY 1977, the total base energy consumption was 1,105,221 MBtu Million British thermal units. By FY 1987, this had been reduced to 870,900 MBtu, a reduction of twenty-one percent 21. This resulted in a cost avoidance for FY 1987 over base year FY 1977 of 2,960,986, or a thirty-two percent 32 reduction.
