A nonprofit that has opposed clean-energy measures, arguing they are a financial burden on minority households, has undisclosed ties to the fossil-fuel industry. The Energy Poverty Awareness Center, which last year helped kill a Maryland bill to ban natural gas in most new buildings, was launched with help from the Consumer Energy Alliance, most of whose members are “oil companies, gas utilities, and other firms that profit from fossil fuels.” An energy-policy researcher said the fossil fuel industry uses such groups as fronts “to obscure the harms this industry causes these communities.” EnPAC’s founder, former Baltimore Ravens player Gary Baxter, said it is an independent organization, and a spokesperson for CEA said the alliance’s early support of EnPAC was a “normal practice.” (Washington Post)
