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.

Rural electric co-operatives in Kentucky are national leaders in developing an innovative approach – called Pay As You Save – to help their customers save energy and money. Now co-operatives in North Carolina, Arkansas, and Tennessee are building on that model. In this workshop we’ll hear from utility leaders and program partners who are investing millions of dollars in rural communities to make their customers’ homes more energy efficient. We’ll explore key benefits and challenges of the PAYS model. And we’ll discuss what’s needed to continue to grow and expand these programs to better serve Kentuckians in rural and urban communities alike.
