The FEA was tasked with managing fuel allocation, pricing regulation, and energy data collection and analysis
This is not research
Okay so first off... The Federal Energy Administration Act created the first U.S. agency with the primary focus on energy and mandated it to collect, assemble, evaluate, and analyze energy information... right there that's called R&D its the beginning of the process so you know what is going on. To further build it out and not create a duplicative entity what did they do I said... oh yeah merge it with the Energy Research and Development Admin to create a unified and cost-effective Department. Congress then got then was smart and because of the power in the office made it Cabinet level to check the presidency as 99% of admin position do not need senate conformation
Dude it was literally part of the renaming process and giving Congress more sway 😂 that’s the reason for Cabinet level it gives the Senate a check on the President
