Kentucky Energy Planning and Inventory Commission

Created by the 2024 Kentucky General Assembly, the Energy Planning and Inventory Commission (EPIC) is charged with reviewing power plant retirement decisions. By statute, EPIC is housed and “administratively attached” to the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research.

The Commission seeks to review the adequacy of existing and future electric generation and future electric demand as well as the continued operation, retirement, divestiture, or other major action impacting any generating unit.
