AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Kentucky Utility Affordability Probe: The Kentucky Public Service Commission opened a case to examine why electric and natural gas bills are rising for residential customers, citing EIA data that average electricity prices climbed from 10.87 cents/kWh (2020) to 13.24 cents/kWh (2025). Data Center Power Push (Hancock County): The PSC approved an electricity service contract for TeraWulf’s 482-megawatt hyperscale data center at the former Century Aluminum smelter site, setting terms aimed at protecting ratepayers. Local Land-Use Limits (Letcher County): A county attorney said a data-center construction moratorium lacks “teeth” without planning and zoning, raising questions about how communities can slow or shape new projects. Meta Child-Safety Settlement: Kentucky is among states in a landmark multistate deal where Meta agreed to pay up to about $17.1 billion and change Instagram/Facebook features for teens, after allegations of addictive design and harm to minors. Outdoor & Water Resilience: A Kentucky-focused USDA school-food effort highlights local beef sourcing, while separate reporting points to landscaping and irrigation rules as a way to cut water use and protect rivers.
