Remote Alaska, Hawaii and Maine Communities to Receive DOE Aid for Energy Security, Costs From Alaska to Hawaii to Maine, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is working with 11 remote island communities to provide federal assistance to bolster their energy security and ameliorate the high energy costs that come along with living on coastal islands.  The DOE’s Energy Transition Initiative Partnership Project (ETIPP) would use experts to improve alternative energy solutions and improve energy security.  The DOE expects the federal assistance would improve energy infrastructure and reduce the risk of outages. Living on a geographically isolated island, communities face high energy costs and weak energy infrastructure because of the increased risk from natural disasters and climate change.
