New project aims for cleaner, more equitable transportation for Black communities in Georgia

In this mention

The Electric Black Futures project, funded by $1.4 million in Department of Energy grants, brings together SACE, EVNoire, and Clean Cities Georgia to develop equitable transportation plans for Black communities in Atlanta, Albany, and Savannah. SACE's Madelyn Collins emphasizes that e-mobility offers an opportunity to transform transportation culture by prioritizing people's health, rights, and autonomy. The initiative aims to address historical transportation inequities through community-driven solutions including public transit, electric shuttles, e-bikes, and improved walkability.
