Department of Energy Company Description

It takes a lot of energy to protect our country's national security. That's why there's the US Department of Energy. The DOE was established in 1977 by former president Jimmy Carter at a time when the US was facing a severe winter and fuel shortages which caused factory and school closings and threatened residential cutoffs. The cabinet-level department is a combination of about 10 program offices. The DOE has four primary goals: to promote a diverse supply of environmentally safe energy, conduct scientific research, ensure nuclear security, and dispose of high-level radioactive waste.
