The annual Operational Energy and Logistics Summit (OELS) was formed in 2019 to advance operational energy and logistics capabilities and strengthen partnerships between military, academia, industry, federal agencies, and labs to support the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) energy needs as outlined by the National Defense Strategy and DoD Operational Energy Strategy 2016.
Entering its 5th year, OELS is produced by TechConnect Division-ATI, in cooperation with the U.S. Navy Operational Energy Office, U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (J4 and J8), U.S. Central Command (J4), and U.S. Marine Corps Expeditionary Energy Office (E2O).
