Providing 

Energy 

 Solutions 

 Worldwide

 The Defense Logistics Agency is America’s combat logistics support agency responsible for 

sourcing and providing nearly every consumable 

item used by our military forces worldwide. 

DLA Energy is a primary-level field activity of 

DLA responsible for providing the Department 

of Defense and other government agencies with 

comprehensive energy solutions in the most 

effective and efficient manner possible. 

 The origin of DLA Energy dates back to World War II. Originally, the organization was an 

entity of the Department of Interior as the ArmyNavy Petroleum Board whose mission was to 

administer the critical petroleum requirements 

during World War II. In 1945, the organization 

was transferred to the War Department and 

became the Joint Army-Navy Purchasing Agency. 

 The organization underwent several name changes, but its mission of administering critical 

petroleum requirements remained essentially the 

same until 1962. At that time, it became a part 

of the consolidated military supply organization 

called the Defense Supply Agency. Today, that 

agency is known as the Defense Logistics Agency. 

In 1964, DLA Energy was renamed the Defense 

Fuel Supply Center and was designated as a 

single entity to purchase and manage the DoD’s 

petroleum products and coal. 

 In 1973, DLA Energy progressed from a wholesale fuel central procurement activity to a 

more comprehensive mission as the Integrated 

Materiel Manager for the DoD petroleum 

mission. Under Phase I of IMM, DLA Energy 

added management of the acquisition, storage, 

distribution and sale of fuel with responsibility 

ending at the Service installation boundary. 

In 1991, Phase II began, which expanded the 

ownership of bulk petroleum products to include 

most bulk storage installations. This effort 

was divided into two parts, Phase IIA which 

capitalized aviation fuel and Phase IIB, which 

capitalized ground fuels. 

 In 1990, DLA Energy’s mission was expanded to include the supply and management 

of natural gas in addition to the basic petroleum 

and coal products. Under this program, natural 

gas requirements were consolidated and centrally 

procured with a mission to provide direct supply 

natural gas to customers when determined 

more economical than using gas from a local 

distribution company. 

 Feb. 11, 1998, marked the beginning of a new chapter in DLA Energy’s history with 

another name change. The DFSC became the 

Defense Energy Support Center. With the name 

change, came a new mission to build an energy 

program aimed at moving the DoD out of the 

management of energy infrastructure and into 

the management of energy products. 

 The initiative to deregulate electricity in the U.S. added still another mission to DLA 

Energy’s responsibilities. As states deregulated, 

DLA Energy pursued and awarded contracts for 

electricity services to DoD and federal civilian 

agency installations in the same manner as 

procurements for natural gas. 

 With the issuance of Defense Reform 

Initiative #49 in December 1998 directing 

the military services to privatize their utility 

systems, DLA Energy took the lead in providing 

contracting expertise to the military services 

in support of the aggressive goals laid out in 

the DRI. DLA Energy has developed a core 

competency in utilities privatization and has 

become the single procurement organization for 

Army and Air Force utility services contracting.

 Oct. 1, 2001, DLA Energy assumed a new mission from the U.S. Air Force and now serves 

as the DoD’s IMM for space and space-related 

products and services, providing world-class 

support and business solutions to not only the 

DoD, but other to federal agencies, government 

contractors and academia. The new mission 

encompasses 92 national stock numbers with 

each product supporting at least one DoD major 

weapon system. The addition of this mission 

makes DLA Energy a full service provider of all 

energy and energy-related products.

 Oct. 1, 2002, DLA Energy assumed the mission to manage and perform the worldwide 

energy quality mission, consolidating functions 

previously performed by the Defense Contract 

Management Agency.

 Aug. 11, 2004, the Secretary of Defense designated DLA as the Executive Agent for bulk 

petroleum. This authority was delegated to DLA 

Energy on Nov. 1, 2004, with the responsibility 

to execute Supply Chain Management for all DoD 

bulk petroleum, with an emphasis on improving 

efficiency and minimizing duplication and 

redundancy within the supply chain.

 Oct. 1, 2006, DLA Energy became the DoD IMM for both bulk Aviator’s Breathing Oxygen 

(specification MIL-PRF-27210) and liquid 

nitrogen (specification A-A-59503). Both were 

previously managed by DLA Aviation.

 In 2009, DLA Energy’s mission continued to expand, incorporating emerging areas of 

renewable and alternative methods for satisfying 

customers’ energy needs. Its mission expanded 

beyond the role of traditional fuel and energy 

support as it leveraged new technologies. As 

the nation continued to embrace conservation, 

and as the need for energy security and a 

renewed awareness of the environmental impact 

presented themselves, DLA Energy focused on 

a system of solutions to meet these challenges. 

Its business units continued to pursue solar 

power, hydrogen power, synthetic fuels and other 

alternative fuel and renewable energy sources 

as new procurement, research and development 

initiatives materialized.

 July 19, 2010, DLA Energy adopted its current name in support of DLA’s “We Are 

DLA” initiative. As a DLA PLFA, the command 

changed its name to support a single-agency 

environment, internally and externally, building 

a greater sense of community and ownership for 

employees, creating a clearer and more definitive 

identity for customers and stakeholders. 

 DLA Energy, despite changes in organization structure and an expanded mission, 

continues its basic mission to support the 

warfighter and manage the energy sources of the 

future.

One of the Defense Logistics Agency Energy’s driving forces in fiscal 2013 was laying the 

groundwork for future success. If fiscal 2012 was the year of transition, then fiscal 2013 was the 

year for taking action – thanks to everyone working big-ticket items like Energy Convergence 

and Audit Readiness.

Beginning on those points, previous Energy Convergence work paved the way for five 

Enterprise Business System rollouts across the globe as we moved from legacy systems to our 

DLA enterprise. Because of the work we had done on Audit Readiness, we will have inventory 

reconciled and assessed and ready to go by Sept. 1, 2014.

DLA Energy also hit all of our cost savings targets for fiscal 2013. Noteworthy was the execution 

of our Jet A conversion initiative. Our amazing Customer and Supplier Operations Defense Fuel 

Support Point Management teams laid the groundwork, and across the fiscal year development 

plan, will garner approximately $30 million in product and over $220 million in infrastructure 

reduction savings. 

When mentioning major DFSP achievements in fiscal 2013, another success story was the 

standup of our DLA Energy-owned and -operated DFSP in Okinawa, Japan. The transition was 

from the 505th Army Quartermaster Battalion who previously owned the mission, to our Energy Pacific Region with our own 

DFSP commander and over 120 of our folks taking care of our customers; it has become the showcase of the Pacific. Since their 

activation in April 2013, their work has been spectacular.

Our Pacific region also handled the first two Energy Convergence rollouts with no degradation in daily support to customers, 

but that’s just the tip of the iceberg for regional support in 2013. Teams in our Europe & Africa region saved $3.3 million in 

overall contract costs by shifting fuel operations from DFSP Speyer to the Bellheim Central European Pipeline System tank farm. 

They also supported U.S. European Command’s mission in support of Operation Enduring Freedom with contracting at Mihail 

Kogălniceanu International Airport in Romania, resulting in $14 million in savings. Turning our attention to our Middle East 

region, they supplied over 248 million gallons of fuel to U.S. forces in Afghanistan and 294 million gallons of fuel to strategic 

air bases supporting Operation Enduring Freedom. The Middle East region began construction on DFSP Salalah in Oman to 

provide the Navy improved strategic flexibility and efficiency to support security, deterrence and anti-piracy operations as 

well. Our Americas region also had big contributions in 2013, including reducing 25 percent of their operating costs, setting up 

a 100 percent Jet A conversion by October 2014, and expanding contingency support to civil authorities and Defense Security 

Cooperation Agency Planning.

DLA Energy also supported disaster relief efforts at home and abroad in fiscal 2013. Super Storm Sandy marked the beginning

of the fiscal year. We pulled together with our contingency contractor to deliver more than 9 million gallons of fuel for relief 

efforts in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. For the typhoon that impacted the Philippines in early 2013, we stood up cells 

in Direct Delivery Fuels in ground, air, and bunker contracts. Our experts performed local purchase contracts for the Marines to 

allow them to spin up quickly and provide instant relief before we took over the contracting arm five days later.

Our folks are world-class professionals, but how our workforce handled sequestration, especially furloughs, redefined 

commitment and selflessness. Our workforce endured many hardships that unpaid leave brought, but the silver lining is that we 

persevered without failing our mission, which is indicative of how dedicated our workforce is.

We also deliberately managed our workforce to have a broader experience set. When two of our senior leaders transitioned 

out of DLA Energy in January of 2013, nine leaders stepped up to move from years of being in the same job and the comforts 

that come along with that, to going outside their comfort zone and stepping into positions of increased responsibility. And we 

became much stronger for it. Then, in an effort to get our headquarters workforce regional experience and our region workforce 

some headquarters experience as well as cross region experience, we announced our liaison officers and deputy commanders 

would undergo a mobility tour. In the next two to five years when we lose some of our amazingly talented senior leaders due to 

retirement or transition, we have a stable and deep bench to pull from in replacing these warriors. 

Since 2013 was the year of taking action, 2014 is the year of execution. All of those cost saving and warfighter supporting 

initiatives are being put to the test, and we’re looking forward to seeing the fruits of our labor.

DLA Energy is focusing on several shorter term priorities to complement our longer term strategies. The Audit Readiness, “Big 

Ideas” cost savings and Energy Convergence programs are well known, but we have new priorities joining the list. Among them 

are transitioning to a more commercial business model using commercial services and fuels, along with paring down the fuel 

infrastructure to have less – but more up to date – infrastructure. We’re also looking to use our Executive Agent mission to 

expand our mission to include a total energy portfolio. For our contracts, we’re seeing an expansion of contingency contracts, 

international agreements and all other capabilities in forward geography, while at the same time establishing continental U.S.-

wide contingency contracting as a DLA Energy and Department of Defense capability. Partnering with the Department of Energy 

for greater strategic reserves utility and expansion of the small business base are also priorities for us.

Our folks making the priorities a reality are standing on the foundation built in 2013 to truly make 2014 the year of execution. I 

can’t wait to see what great things will be written here a year from now as a result of their efforts. 

As a final note, the first section of this year’s Fact Book represents DLA Energy as it is when released in 2014. The organization 

chart, regional locations, biographies and our units’ roles and missions are all current. Following the divider is a snapshot of DLA 

Energy’s facts and figures for fiscal year 2013.

Renewable Energy Program

Renewable Power: Any source of energy that is continually available or that can be renewed or replaced.

 

Renewable Energy Certificates: A REC is a tradable, non-tangible energy commodity in the United States 

that represents proof that one MWh of electricity was generated from an eligible renewable energy (solar, 

wind, biomass, ocean, geothermal, municipal solid waste or “new” hydroelectric generation) resource.

Summary of DLA Energy renewable power purchases (2003-2013)

For fiscal year 2013, the Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires that not less than 7.5 percent of total electricity 

consumed by the federal government come from renewable energy.
