Department of Energy federal obligations in Pennsylvania

The Department of Energy shows $15,453,580,867.25 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Pennsylvania, across 530 awards. Awarding-agency 089 and Pennsylvania (PA) are the pair. The dollars are obligations, not outlays, and not a finding that Pennsylvania “attracted” the awards. USAspending.gov is the source of the two integers.

Key figures

  • Energy in Pennsylvania: $15,453,580,867.25 across 530 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $29.16 million per record, not a typical household energy rebate and not a named-lab appropriation.
  • Agency 089 × PA is not a kilowatt-hour total, a utility bill, or a lab operating budget by campus.
  • Cite obligations, not outlays, from USAspending.gov.
  • Statewide PA is not southeast versus western Pennsylvania.

Energy’s Pennsylvania-coded award book

Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of Energy, agency 089. Geography is Pennsylvania. The surviving file is $15,453,580,867.25 and 530 awards. Laboratory, loan, grant, and contract vehicles can share the Energy awarding-agency code. This packet does not name which vehicles sit in the file. Other awarding agencies inside Pennsylvania sit on other pages even when the same metro hosts their work.

Dollars per record come to about $29.16 million. That mean mixes large assistance or contract vehicles with smaller actions. It is not a typical household energy rebate and not a named-lab appropriation. Unique recipients are unpublished. Five hundred thirty Energy awards against a mid-teens billion sum is a low-count, high-dollar file. Sparse rows often hide large vehicles. This packet does not name them.

What the Energy–Pennsylvania pair is not

This join is not a kilowatt-hour total, a utility bill, or a lab operating budget by campus. $15,453,580,867.25 measures award obligations with a 089 awarding-agency code and a PA place-of-performance tag. Pennsylvania’s two large metros sit at opposite ends of the state. This join is statewide PA, not a Philadelphia-only or Pittsburgh-only cell. Neighbor-state awards stay outside even when the same metro crosses a river.

Department of Energy in Pennsylvania is the overlay. Pennsylvania federal spending still includes every other awarding agency in the state extract. Department of Energy is the parent agency hub without a Pennsylvania filter. All spending ties holds the rest of the join list. Correlation is not causation: sharing a state with Energy does not mean the state caused the cell.

Obligation versus outlay on agency 089

Assistance and contract awards can obligate in one fiscal window and pay on a different schedule. $15,453,580,867.25 is the commitment sum. Treating it as cash already cleared in Pennsylvania confuses obligations with outlays. The packet does not assign a fiscal year to the headline; treat $15,453,580,867.25 as the obligation total present in the indexed file.

Pennsylvania’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 530-row Energy cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include de-obligations. The implied mean near $29.16 million is dollars divided by records, not a typical household energy rebate and not a named-lab appropriation.

One PA tag, not southeast versus western Pennsylvania

This packet does not split $15,453,580,867.25 by county, metro, or Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and the central counties. 530 awards stay statewide. Neighboring New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, and Ohio remain other state cells even when labor markets or projects cross those lines. Publishing southeast versus western Pennsylvania as a subtotal would invent a number.

Place of performance can follow work in-state, a recipient address, or a reporting convention. Department of Energy is the 089 hub without a Pennsylvania filter. Use it for the agency book; use this page for the PA intersection only.

Sparse rows often hide large vehicles. This packet does not name them.
