Help!

How would I find the annual budget of the NREL, and,
more generally, the portion of the DoE budget that was
allocated to renewable, alternative energy research?

I would like the numbers for years going back decades,
if possible. Google fails me at this task; it keeps
returning the "crisis" of the 2005/6 NREL budget.

Thanks.

You could try querying the GPO Access database. I did a quick search and pulled up the DOE's budget, but breaking out the NREL part was not immediately obvious. Maybe a call to NREL public affairs office (303) 275-4090, (I didn't see an email) might be most expedient.

Here is a link to DOE's budget: http://www.energy.gov/about/budget.htm. NREL's budget is in the laboratory section. Note that NREL is not managed directly by DOE, but rather by Battelle.
