The Department of Energy said Tuesday it is renewing its financial assistance, worth about $3.9-million, to the Washington, D.C.-based Energy Communities Alliance through April 11, 2028.

The DOE Office of Environmental Management announced the reupping of the non-competitive financial assistance cooperative agreement with the community advocacy organization in a Tuesday press release.

As recipient of the grant, the Energy Communities Alliance (ECA) “will continue to engage local governments on issues related to DOE facilities,” according to the news release.

On its website, ECA identifies itself as “the only non-profit, membership organization” for local municipalities near DOE facilities. ECA shares information via reports and policy work on economic, regulatory and environmental issues affecting these locales, according to the website.
