What is Electric Black Futures?
Electric Black Futures (EBF) is a transformative project that empowers Georgia communities to shape their electric mobility future.
Over the next three years, Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, EVNoire, Clean Cities Georgia, and a host of local partners will utilize Department of Energy funding to ensure communities within three Georgia cities – Albany, Atlanta, and Savannah – are actively engaged and empowered to create and deploy accessible electric mobility initiatives and inform and support deployment of electric transportation-related funding.
​EBF will work closely with communities in Albany, Savannah, and Atlanta to generate future-building coalitions focused on bridging e-mobility workforce and leadership opportunities. Our objective is to strategize and document accessible and innovative transportation systems in these dynamic geographies, and better connect clean energy policy and incentives to community leaders eager to lead technological developments in their areas. ​
Our Goals
Co-create community-centered electric mobility plans that connect Georgia communities to federal funding and clean energy jobs and addresses the environmental and transportation burdens that impact local communities’ economic well-being.
​
Empower Georgia communities to envision and lead their electric mobility futures through their own lens and imagination through “future-scoping,” a methodology that centers the lived experiences of target communities in the context of technological innovation.
​​
Bring community awareness to the clean energy labor force, and find pathways for upward mobility and economic empowerment through green jobs and entrepreneurship.
