The Department of Energy (DOE) oversees energy policy plus nuclear-weapons stewardship (the NNSA) and the national laboratories. It spans nuclear to renewables and is a major funder of basic science and energy technology.
Through national labs that host some of the world's top supercomputers, it also supports cutting-edge research in AI, quantum, and materials. A highly technical department, it straddles both security (nuclear) and the science of the energy transition.
