Clean Energy Demonstrations federal funding in FY2026

What the 81.255 × FY2026 join is

Program 81.255 and fiscal year 2026 meet here. $916,476,316.44 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. A clean-energy-demonstration award coded to another year is out. A FY2026 award under a different energy CFDA is out even if the technology sounds related. This packet does not name projects, companies, or sites. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Eleven awards versus 77 program-wide is a count comparison, not a ranking of energy policy. Open CFDA 81.255, FY2026 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties for the program book, the year hub, sibling codes, and other pairs. Do not add those pages into $916,476,316.44.

Eleven large demonstration vehicles

Dividing $916,476,316.44 by 11 yields about $83,316,028.77. Demonstration programs often post a handful of multi-hundred-million-dollar instruments plus modifications. 11 is not 11 power plants and not 11 unique builders. Do not invent contractor names.

Program-wide facts remain $3,602,789,543.84 and 77 awards. FY2026’s share of that extract is a descriptive ratio of packet facts, not a finding that demonstrations accelerated. Correlation is not causation. Other years are not this page. Partial-year ingests can still populate a yearlyTrend cell.

Not a megawatt or emissions score

$916,476,316.44 does not measure megawatts, tons of carbon avoided, or plants commissioned. Those series are unpublished here. The cell sums obligations with CFDA 81.255 and a FY2026 tag. Catalog title text is the heading, not an engineering result. This page does not split the total by technology.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. $916,476,316.44 is the former. Demonstration construction often obligates in one year and spends across many. Citing the figure as cash already spent on clean energy over-reads the field. This packet has no outlay total.

Keep both keys. FY2026 is the federal fiscal year on the award records. Dropping either side turns the cell into a different table.

How to cite Clean Energy Demonstrations in FY2026

A clean footnote names Clean Energy Demonstrations (CFDA 81.255), fiscal year 2026, $916,476,316.44 in obligations, and 11 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. The compact $916 million is that cell rounded. Mean dollars per action remain about $83,316,028.77 if you divide the two facts.

Prefer CFDA 81.255 if the program table moved. FY2026 federal spending still includes every other CFDA tagged to that year. All programs and All spending ties keep sibling codes and other pairs in view. A later ingest can restate $916,476,316.44 without changing the join definition.

Eleven demonstration vehicles and the plants they do not name

Eleven awards totaling $916,476,316.44 sit inside $3,602,789,543.84 on 77 awards program-wide. The implied mean near $83,316,028.77 is the texture of a demonstration file: few vehicles, very large dollars per row. 11 is not 11 power plants and not 11 builders. This packet does not name technologies, sites, or companies. Megawatts, tons of carbon avoided, and plants commissioned are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: a large FY2026 cell does not document an energy transition. Partial-year ingests can still fill yearlyTrend; this page does not invent completeness.

Cite CFDA 81.255 × FY2026, obligations not outlays. Demonstration construction often pays across many years. CFDA 81.255, FY2026 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are the four hrefs. Other energy CFDAs are out even if the technology sounds related. Do not add parent hubs into $916,476,316.44. Unique recipients stay unpublished. If the program table moves, rewrite the dollar sentence and keep the pair labeled Clean Energy Demonstrations crossed with fiscal year 2026.

Demonstration folklore does not add megawatts. $916,476,316.44 on 11 records is CFDA 81.255 in FY2026. Plant names, technologies, and emissions scores stay unpublished. Other energy codes are other joins. CFDA 81.255, FY2026 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are hubs. Construction can pay later. Keep obligations, not outlays.
