On December 8, 2021, President Biden signed Executive Order (EO) 14057 on Catalyzing Clean Energy Industries and Jobs Through Federal Sustainability. Among many goals and directives laid out in the document, the EO specifically requires that “The Federal Government shall use its scale and procurement power to achieve 100 percent zero-emission vehicle acquisitions by 2035, including 100 percent zero-emission light-duty vehicle acquisitions by 2027.” Within the DOE’s Environmental Management (EM) portfolio, the Hanford site is a complex and highly rural operation with a critical environmental remediation mission. At 586 square-miles and with over 1,800 fleet vehicles, Hanford is one of world’s largest nuclear waste cleanup projects. In 2022, Hanford tasked Leidos - who manages the site via the Hanford Mission Integration Solutions (HMIS) Joint Venture - to develop a strategic plan and implementation roadmap for the electrification of its light duty fleet. This presentation will explore the complexities of mission-critical installation energy resilience and fleet electrification through the prism of the Hanford case study. The findings from this case study are highly relevant to conference participants from DOE and other Federal or Defense agencies, as they are subject to the same requirements of EO 14057.
