Kentuckians have made it clear that we want an energy future that supports jobs, health, equity and climate – and we have great ideas for how to bring that about. The Empower Kentucky Summit will be largest gathering ever of a diverse set of Kentuckians figuring out what it will take to bring about Kentucky’s Bright Energy Future.
For the past year we’ve been listening to the ideas, hopes and needs of Kentuckians, learning from what other states have done, and tapping into technological and economic expertise to put together a draft plan for what’s possible, what it will take and why it matters for Kentucky to make a just transition to a clean energy economy
If you’re interested in being part of a well-informed, creative, visionary, justice-oriented conversation about building the agenda for Kentucky’s energy future, join us September 30 – October 1 in Louisville.

In this session we will explore diverse perspectives about what it means to shape a Just Transition to a clean energy economy – and why it matters. We’ll discuss some of the challenges facing workers and communities on the frontlines of climate disruption and our changing energy system. And we'll share examples of promising transition approaches and strategies. Together we’ll consider what's needed to to advance a Just Transition in Kentucky and for other affected communities and workers.
