Key figures

  • The total is obligations, not outlays, and not nationwide DOE.
  • VA is place of performance, not a shipyard-only split.

What the Energy–Virginia join is

Awarding agency 089 and place-of-performance state VA meet here. $5,106,273,492 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Energy’s nationwide budget, not Virginia’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. Hampton Roads nuclear-navy folklore and northern-Virginia office parks may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a reactor census.

677 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a short award list beside a multi-billion obligation total. A few large awards can dominate a dollar total even when the row count looks tiny. The join does not rank Virginia against other states and does not name laboratories or shipyards inside the extract.

A short award list next to a large dollar total

Dividing $5,106,273,492 by 677 yields about $7,542,501 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical naval-reactor contract. Repeat awards and modifications still add rows; the listed count is not a unique-recipient census. Lab or shipyard names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars.

Hampton roads nuclear-navy folklore and northern-virginia office parks is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative’s extra columns.
