" A recent proposed DOE standard for the efficiency of the distribution transformers used by electrical utilities were so weak that even the utilities thought they needed to be strengthened! "
First of all, this has nothing to do with the national labs. The article is about DOE appliance efficiency, not nuclear weapons. Second, it's basically a left-wing Massachusetts congressman complaining that DOE hasn't banned enough consumer appliances. I'm pretty sure congressmen in other states, oh maybe Texas for example, would have a different opinion about whether that is "incompetence" or not.

No need to be defensive here.
The labs fall under DOE.
