Jim Chaney, owner of Arctic Solar shows U.S. Navy Seabees with Underwater Construction Team 2 (UCT 2) how to operate the Renewable Energy Area Lighting System (REALS) in Port Hueneme, California on May 25, 2018. UCT 2 is reducing its logistical footprint and resupply requirements through the adoption of innovative solutions such as expeditionary solar power and lighting systems that will enable extended time on station in austere environments with limited resupply of bulk fuel. UCT 2 provides responsive inshore and underwater construction capabilities needed to construct, inspect, repair, and maintain ocean facilities as well as underwater systems.
