Energy discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Energy's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
Funds research and development to re-establish domestic critical minerals and metals supply chains, advancing domestic mining, new mining and processing technologies, metallurgy, and substitutes for critical materials.
Extracted from Energy Programs, p. 17. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
