The subcommittee met at 10:04 a.m. in room SD-192, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Dianne Feinstein (chairwoman) pre- siding. Present: Senators Feinstein, Murray, Tester, Shaheen, Kennedy, Collins, Hoeven, and Hagerty. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY STATEMENT OF HON. JENNIFER GRANHOLM, SECRETARY OPENING STATEMENT OF SENATOR DIANNE FEINSTEIN Senator FEINSTEIN. I think we will get started. Senator Kennedy is on his way, but has sent signal that this is what we should do. So we will do it. And the Subcommittee on Energy and Water will please come to order. Today's hearing is going to review the fiscal year 2023 budget re- quest for the Department of Energy. Thank you, Secretary Granholm for joining us today. I am par- ticularly pleased to see you again and back this year. A lot has happened since we last saw you, including historic funding for the Department through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill, and our re- cent fiscal year 2022 spending bill. I know that implementing this funding has been keeping the Department busy. The administration's fiscal year 2023 request for the Depart- ment, totals $48.6 billion, representing more than $3.7 billion in- crease from last year, and that is billion, not million. As I under- stand this, most of this proposal increase is aimed at reducing our fossil fuel consumption, and addressing climate change. Your budget includes funding for research and development, of renewable energy, batteries, electric vehicles, and also dem- onstrates these technologies at a scale that would reduce emissions. These investments, I believe, are important as we continue to re- duce our dependence on fossil fuels for heating our homes and powering our cars. (1)
