Abstract

What does and would a Triple Net Zero installation mean to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)? This question and many more of a similar nature have been discussed in NATO only recently. The increased cost of traditional fossil fuels, environmental concerns and the instability in certain regions of geopolitical interest are a few reasons that NATO may be looking at concepts such as Triple Net Zero, Net Zero or Sustainable Camp policy in the future. It is also the pressure from nations, which has sparked interest in such concepts within NATO and Partner nations. Such concepts do come with the challenges of structure, terminology, and NATO policy and doctrine, all of which will be further elaborated in the subsequent paragraphs.
