"President Biden plans to nominate David Turk, a former Obama administration official, as his deputy energy secretary.

If confirmed by the Senate, Turk will bring years of experience working on climate issues in the federal government to help Biden's energy secretary nominee, Jennifer Granholm, who is new to Washington, manage a department that's at the forefront of enacting Biden's climate agenda.

Turk is one of the growing cadre of officials across the federal bureaucracy who will now be tasked with transitioning the U.S. economy toward less polluting forms of energy while still keeping blue-collar jobs intact."
