Kentucky is filled with natural treasures. Along with the people we serve, the employees of EKPC value this region’s natural resources. It’s why we take environmental stewardship so seriously. Here are a few of our projects.

Cooperative Solar gives members of the 16 owner-members an easy way to benefit from sun power without the hassle, maintenance or expense of owning private solar panels.
Our peregrine falcon program began when a wooden falcon box was installed high above Spurlock Station in 2006. Several dozen chicks have hatched, and the peregrine falcon population has grown to the point that this federally-protected bird has been removed from the national endangered species list.
At EKPC, we've established native pollinator and Monarch butterfly natural habitats, planted hundreds of trees and installed bat houses. We offer educational wildlife posters and solar farm tours to schools and civic groups.
