DOGE says it has saved government $55B so far

The article from MSN discusses how the Department of Energy's Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) has saved the U.S. government approximately $55 billion through its initiatives. OCED, led by Director David Crane, has been instrumental in advancing clean energy projects, particularly in areas like carbon capture, hydrogen hubs, and long-duration energy storage. These efforts not only aim to reduce carbon emissions but also to enhance energy security and economic benefits. Crane highlighted the importance of these projects in transitioning to a clean energy economy, noting that the savings were achieved by avoiding future costs associated with climate change impacts and by leveraging private sector investments. The article also mentions that these savings are part of a broader strategy to meet the Biden administration's climate goals, including achieving a carbon-free electricity sector by 2035.
