A new analysis of Kentucky’s electric utilities system shows that the Commonwealth’s continued reliance on aging, uneconomic coal plants is costing more and heightening risks for Kentucky’s households and businesses. The study, commissioned by Kentucky Resources Council, Metropolitan Housing Coalition, Mountain Association, and Earthjustice, and supported by Kentucky Solar Energy Society and Kentuckians for the Commonwealth, evaluates multiple energy pathways through 2050 and identifies strategies that would better meet Kentuckians’ electricity needs at a lower cost and risk to Kentucky ratepayers.
The analysis concludes that transitioning away from aging coal-fired power plants as they become uneconomic — and accelerating investments in renewable energy, battery storage, and efficiency instead of new gas-fueled power plants — could save Kentuckians billions of dollars while maintaining reliable electricity supplies across the state. #KYEnergyReport
