Army Net Zero Installations Policy  

The Army's vision is to appropriately manage our natural resources with a goal of Net Zero in energy, water and solid waste at installations. This memorandum sets policy and assigns responsibilities to strive toward Net Zero at all Army installations where fiscally responsible and in support of mission accomplishment. Net Zero is not a new program, but seeks to build on existing Army sustainability efforts to integrate environmental, energy and green procurement programs. This holistic strategy is targeted to improve management of existing Federal energy, water and solid waste programs with the goal of increasing resiliency where fiscally responsible. Net Zero is a force multiplier that enables the Army to appropriately steward available resources, manage costs and provide Soldiers, Families and Civilians with a sustainable future.
