edit formation and consolidation edit in 1942 during world war ii the united states started the manhattan project to develop the atomic bomb under the u s army corps of engineers after the war in 1946 the atomic energy commission aec was created to control the future of the project 7 8 the atomic energy act of 1946 also created the framework for the first national laboratories among other nuclear projects the aec produced fabricated uranium fuel cores at locations such as fernald feed materials production center in cincinnati ohio 9 10 11 the energy reorganization act of 1974 split the responsibilities of the aec into the new nuclear regulatory commission which was charged with regulating the nuclear power industry and the energy research and development administration which was assigned to manage the nuclear weapon naval reactor and energy development programs 12 the 1973 oil crisis called attention to the need to consolidate energy policy 13 14 15 in 1977 president jimmy carter signed into law the department of energy organization act which established the department of energy 16 the new agency which began operations on october 1 1977 consolidated the federal energy administration the energy research and development administration the federal power commission and programs of various other agencies former secretary of defense james schlesinger who served under presidents nixon and ford during the vietnam war was appointed as the first secretary president jimmy carter proposed the department of energy with the goal of promoting energy conservation and energy independence and developing alternative sources of energy to reduce the use of fossil fuels 17 with the future of international energy uncertain for america carter acted quickly to have the department come into action in the first year of his presidency this was an extremely important issue of the time as the oil crisis was causing shortages and inflation 18 with the three mile island accident carter was able to intervene with the help of the department through the doe carter was able to make changes within the nuclear regulatory commission including improving management and procedures since nuclear energy and weapons are responsibilities of the department 19 weapon plans stolen edit main article wen ho lee in december 1999 the federal bureau of investigation began investigating how china acquired plans for a specific nuclear device wen ho lee a scientist at los alamos national laboratory was accused of passing nuclear secrets to the chinese government before any formal charges federal officials including energy secretary bill richardson publicly identified lee as a suspect the u s congress held hearings on the doe s handling of the case with some senators proposing that nuclear security be managed by an independent agency 20 of the 59 charges brought against lee all but one were later dropped after investigators concluded the leaked plans could not have come from him lee later received a 1 6 million settlement from the federal government and several news organizations 21 in the wake of the scandal 22 23 and allegations that direct management by the department of energy had resulted in u s nuclear secrets being leaked to china the national nuclear security administration was proposed 24 originally proposed to be independent nnsa was instead chartered as a semiautonomous agency within the department of energy to be headed by an administrator reporting to the secretary of energy loan guarantee program of 2005 edit in 2001 american solar challenge was sponsored by the doe and the national renewable energy laboratory 25 after the 2005 race the doe discontinued its sponsorship 26 title xvii of energy policy act of 2005 authorizes the doe to issue loan guarantees to eligible projects that avoid reduce or sequester air pollutants or anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases and employ new or significantly improved technologies as compared to technologies in service in the united states at the time the guarantee is issued 27 in loan guarantees a conditional commitment requires to meet an equity commitment as well as other conditions before the loan guarantee is completed 28 in september 2008 the doe the nuclear threat initiative nti the institute of nuclear materials management inmm and the international atomic energy agency iaea partnered to develop and launch the world institute for nuclear security wins an international non governmental organization designed to provide a forum to share best practices in strengthening the
