Federal Cooperative Agreement Summary

South Florida Regional Planning received a $215,000 Cooperative Agreement from the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) under the Conservation Research and Development program (CFDA 81.086) for the period April 1, 2026 through March 31, 2027. Under this award, the organization will serve as the Clean Cities and Communities (CC&C) Coalition for the South Florida region, engaging key stakeholders across Broward, Miami-Dade, and Monroe Counties to advance the Department of Energy's Transportation Technologies Office objectives. The primary deliverables include stakeholder engagement activities, technical assistance and outreach services within the coalition's territory, and tracking and reporting of critical program and performance metrics related to locally driven transportation energy choices and innovative mobility technologies.

The cooperative agreement supports the broader CC&C Coalitions initiative, which fosters collaborative partnerships between public and private stakeholders to enhance national energy security, support economic prosperity, and improve air quality through the adoption of domestic energy resources and advanced transportation technologies. South Florida Regional Planning's activities will contribute to the regional deployment of clean transportation initiatives while maintaining accountability through comprehensive performance measurement and reporting aligned with DOE program requirements.
