Department of Energy obligations in New Jersey 12th District (NJ-12)

Energy × NJ-12 is a lab-and-program join, not a kWh dashboard

This page is a join: Department of Energy (agency 089) as awarding agency, and New Jersey 12th District (NJ-12) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $1,881,993,283.75 on 98 awards. The join is awarding-agency 089 crossed with an NJ-12 location field, not New Jersey’s entire energy budget and not a named-laboratory inventory. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 98 awards equal 98 plants, labs, or unique contractors.

Defense energy work, EPA cleanup, or Energy-coded awards in NJ-07 sit outside this total unless they also carry agency 089 and NJ-12. Mixing those books into $1,881,993,283.75 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and grid load is not causation. Kilowatt-hour and named-lab tables are not in the packet. Place of performance as NJ-12 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $1,881,993,283.75 in a district treasury. Princeton-versus-Trenton folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

98 awards behind $1.88 billion

Mean obligation is about $19,204,013.10 if $1,881,993,283.75 were divided evenly across 98 lines. That ratio is not a published plant cost and not a typical laboratory task order. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of labs, plants, or unique vendors. Ninety-eight awards against a nearly two-billion-dollar cell is a thin, high-mean Energy file.

Laboratory and assistance vehicles can dominate a 98-row file without naming the campus. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open New Jersey 12th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 98 into a map of New Jersey 12th District laboratories. The $1,881,993,283.75 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a lab census.

New Jersey 12th District, not a Princeton-area energy rollup

New Jersey 12th District (NJ-12) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to NJ-07, NJ-11, or another New Jersey district are out even if the research topic sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $10,174,542,497.64 across every awarding agency; $1,881,993,283.75 is the Department of Energy slice — about 18.5% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover agency list.

A statewide Energy figure on New Jersey federal spending mixes every district. Do not rank NJ-12 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other New Jersey district cells are other joins. New Jersey federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Department of Energy dollars to $1,881,993,283.75 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

Agency 089 obligations are not megawatts already delivered

Energy awards often obligate as laboratory contracts and assistance rows and draw as work proceeds. The $1,881,993,283.75 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of kilowatt-hours delivered and not a Treasury outlay total. A DOE laboratory dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 089, NJ-12 geography, and the obligation metric.

Department of Energy is the nationwide agency book without a NJ-12 filter. This extract does not split science from environmental management, and it does not split labs from primes. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 98 awards, agency 089, and New Jersey 12th District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the NJ-12 Energy table omits

The extract has no laboratory names, plant names, or contractor names. Facts remain $1,881,993,283.75, 98 awards, agency 089, Department of Energy, New Jersey 12th District (NJ-12), and district parent $10,174,542,497.64. Campus folklore belongs on another extract if it appears at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 98-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Start with New Jersey 12th District for the district rollup that contains this Department of Energy cell. Department of Energy is the nationwide agency listing.

Do not recast $1,881,993,283.75 as cash already paid or as New Jersey’s entire energy appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.
