美国能源部宣传图漏掉佛蒙特州引热议 63个部落能源项目获超1.25亿美元资助

美国能源部近日在官方X账号发布的一张美国地图引发热议:图中各州齐全,唯独漏掉了佛蒙特州。网友迅速指出错误,X平台的社区注释只问了一句:"佛蒙特呢?"还有用户猜测该图由人工智能生成;媒体就此向能源部求证,未能确认图中是否用过AI。
这张图原本是为宣传一轮部落能源资助:能源部10月22日宣布,遴选63个由部落主导的能源项目进入谈判,联邦资助总额超过1.25亿美元,项目包括为目前无电可用的部落家庭通电、改用天然气供暖和升级社区基础设施,其中阿拉斯加州与俄克拉何马州的项目数量最多。
能源部表示,该决定与特朗普总统"释放美国能源"行政令一致;部落家庭的能源成本比全美平均水平高28%,约17,000户部落家庭没有电力供应。
Energy Department Map Omitting Vermont Draws Attention as 63 Tribal Energy Projects Win Over $125 Million in Funding
A U.S. map posted on the Department of Energy's official X account drew widespread attention this week because it appeared to show the entire United States with one state missing: Vermont. Users were quick to flag the error — a community note on X asked simply, "Vermont?" — and some suggested artificial intelligence had been used to create the map; the department did not confirm whether AI was involved.
The graphic had been posted to promote a round of funding for Tribal communities. The selections, announced on October 22, chose 63 Tribal-led energy projects for negotiations over more than $125 million in federal funding, including bringing electricity to Tribal homes that currently lack it, converting others to natural-gas heating and upgrading community infrastructure, with Alaska and Oklahoma seeing the largest numbers of projects.
The Energy Department said the decisions were consistent with President Donald Trump's "Unleashing American Energy" executive order, and noted that Tribal households face energy costs 28 percent higher than the national average, while about 17,000 Tribal homes lack electricity.
