The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is a federal agency responsible for advancing the nation’s energy policy, ensuring energy security, and supporting scientific and technological innovation. It oversees the development and regulation of energy production, including renewable energy, fossil fuels, and nuclear power, while also managing the country’s nuclear weapons program and cleanup of legacy nuclear sites. Through its network of national laboratories, the DOE funds and conducts cutting-edge research in physics, climate science, materials, computing, and more. The agency plays a critical role in shaping a sustainable energy future and driving scientific discovery in service of national interests.
