The Department of Energy Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy awarded a $223,000 Cooperative Agreement to the Association of Central Oklahoma Governments (ACOG) on April 1, 2026, under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086) to deliver Clean Cities and Communities Coalition outreach, engagement, and market tracking services.

ACOG will engage key stakeholders, provide technical assistance and outreach within its coalition territory, and track and report critical program and performance metrics to enhance energy security, support economic prosperity, and improve air quality through locally driven transportation energy choices. The award funds work performed in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with a period of performance through March 31, 2027. ACOG, a council of governments representing over 40 city and county governments in central Oklahoma, operates as a regional planning and transportation equity services recipient for federal agencies and holds no federal contract vehicles; this award is one of three recent DOE Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy grants to the organization.

The objective of this project is for CC & C coalitions to engage key stakeholders, provide technical assistance and outreach within the coalition's territory, and to track and report critical program and performance metrics.
