AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Energy: The Nuclear Company proposed a six-reactor, 6.6-gigawatt campus in Lewis County, a project that could become Kentucky’s first nuclear power plant. Early site assessments are planned; the proposal is not yet a construction commitment. Business Growth: Silco Fire & Security broke ground on a $6.4 million Bullitt County facility, expected to add 20 jobs within three years, with potential to reach 64. An auto-parts maker also opened a $30 million Auburn facility. Construction: WKU broke ground on its $350 million Southern Gateway student housing project. Workforce: A $148,000 TVA grant will fund heavy-equipment simulators at Marshall County Technical Center, training students for construction, transportation, agriculture and other local careers. Industry Policy: Jessamine County residents called for tighter controls on data centers, while Louisville officials continued reviewing rules focused on electricity rates and water use.
