TechConnect, in cooperation with U.S. Indo-Pacific Command, U.S. Navy Operational Energy Office, and U.S. Marine Corps Expeditionary Energy Office (E2O) are proud to co-develop the 2024 Operational Energy and Logistics Summit.

Join us as we advance operational energy, logistics, and cyber capabilities and strengthen partnerships between military, academia, industry, federal agencies and labs to support the DoD’s energy and security needs as outlined by the National Defense Strategy, National Security Strategy, and Department of Defense Operational Energy Strategy.

Operational Energy:

• Portable Power (advanced batteries, sensors, generators, small unit power/modular reactors)
• Renewables (biofuels, solar)
• Hydrogen (hydrogen fuel cells)
• Storage/Delivery/Distribution (grid (shipboard, expeditionary energy), non-intrusive load monitoring), movement of power and electricity
• Transportation (cargo, ammunition, water/land systems)
• Metering/Monitoring (usage, thermal management, AI)
• Energy Quality (AI, ML for Decision Making)

Contested Logistics:

• Joint Power Protection
• Unmanned Systems
• Distributed Operations Sustainment
• Command and Control Systems (common operating picture, ISR, AI, communications)

Cybersecurity of Critical Infrastructure (electric, oil/gas, water, buildings):

• Sensors (Host, Intrusion Detection and Prevention)
• Tools (Orchestration, Visualization, Asset Discovery/Baselining, Correlation, SIEM)
• Exterior Data Prevention (Firewalls and Data Diodes)
