MarketWatch's Steve Gelsi just wrote an interesting article about how the US military has set very aggressive goals to reduce the use of fossil fuels.
Last year, the US military spent as much as $13 billion on petroleum for its ships, planes, and combat vehicles alone! On top of that, energy dependence and supply reliability makes the military's energy mix a priority, says Navy Secretary and former Mississippi Govenor Ray Mabus.
The military is looking at solar, wind, and improved batteries in order to minimize risk for its troops, and this may well be in favor of companies that can help the military cut costs over the next decade.
