TITLE:
INDY - Energy independent and efficient deployable military camps
DESCRIPTION:
Both at national and international levels, energy transition is high on the priority list. In line with the Green Deal, the greening of military forces is necessary to reach the ambition defined by Member States. At the moment, deployable military camps are almost 100% dependent on fossil fuel. This not only means that the environmental footprint is high but it also represents a weak point and vulnerability for the armed forces in terms of logistics and dependence on fossil fuels. This is becoming even more challenging given the growing need of energy for the military equipment.
 
The INDY project will be the first step to increase the security of energy supply and autonomy of deployable military camps and support their full transition towards implementation of renewable energy sources with the use of new disruptive technologies and solutions for future military camps. The roadmap shall seek to reduce
the usage of fossil fuel by 40% in 2030 compared to the present situation and to reach 100% fossil fuel independency in 2050.
