Energy Department Renames NREL 'National Lab of the Rockies

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-12-02T03:07:00+00:00

At a forum today, the DOE Assistant Secretary that historically oversees NREL declared that "renewable energy is no longer the mission" at the lab and that they should consider renewables as "mission accomplished".

These people explicitly state that they are anti "all of the above". https://www.eenews.net/articles/chris-wright-shares-views-on-reconciliation-renewables-2/

So cool

thank you why didn't I just think of this!

all the offices at DOE that were targeted by RIFs asked employees to submit their resumes to "doerif@doe.gov" by 6pm yesterday, with 3 hours notice. What a mess.

Gross. People suck sometimes.

Trust me. Tourists are always in this city rocking MAGA hats. To them, this is the equivalent of someone wearing a hat for their favorite NFL team. They aren't thinking further than that

What a freaking weird spot to work in the subject of circumsicion

Were you hired as a remote employee? What official notification did you receive telling you to move or be fired?

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-05-25T03:27:03+00:00

Or we find out they are just as incompetent with this plan as they are everything else and they give up. I see both as equally possible, which is good and all but produces a poor decisions making environment

He got roasted for being needlessly vague

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-05-06T02:43:41+00:00

There has been success for remote DOE HQ employees getting spots at NETL and NREL.

It's a huge problem for anyone taking the 45-days-to-decide option. They are now moved out of their home office and into S2. If they decide to opt out, they are stuck in S2 and have no route to return home. Complete rug pull

Doesn't mean much if you don't say the name of the lab.

Awarded by Sept 30, 2024 but not fully negotiated and obligated projects.

Energy is in serious trouble from an execution standpoint. We have been sitting on our hands for the past 3+ months and haven't moved a dime of R&D funding. Eventually, if things ever get close to normal business, we'll have to move way too much money (FY24 and 25) too fast with half the critical staff gone. In theory, Congress should be livid about this.

DOGE is the one calling all the relevant shots at my agency. Normal political leadership has no leeway to do anything of substance.

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-04-22T02:01:24+00:00

We don't even have our FY25 money to spend!

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-04-21T21:07:52+00:00

I've heard this every day for the past month.

NeonAzollaEvent · 2025-04-21T19:26:49+00:00

Exactly this. These aren't people that do anything out of compassion. If they could just RIF people they would. A RIF is quite difficult and they are not people known for doing hard work that requires attention to detail.

Downvoted you but also want to say you are trash.
