Industry Tour & Safety Series- Behind the Scenes at Duke Energy's Midwest Power Distribution Control Center

September 1, 2026 9:00 AM - 11:30 AM (EDT)

Description

Ever wonder what happens behind the scenes when the lights stay on during severe storms or other emergencies? Join the NKY Chamber for an exclusive members-only tour of Duke Energy's Midwest Power Distribution Control Center and experience firsthand the technology, planning, and expertise that keep our region powered. 

This unique behind-the-scenes experience will give attendees an inside look at how Duke Energy monitors and manages the electric grid 24 hours a day. Learn how operators coordinate the distribution system that delivers electricity to homes and businesses, oversee the high-voltage transmission network that connects power plants to substations, and respond to major weather events and other critical situations with precision and speed.

Guests will also gain insight into the extensive measures Duke Energy takes to safeguard the electric grid from physical and cybersecurity threats, ensuring reliable service for the communities and businesses that depend on it every day. 

Beyond the technology, you'll have the opportunity to tour one of the most resilient utility facilities in the region. Purpose-built to withstand extreme events—including powerful tornadoes and even significant blast impacts—the control center is engineered to remain operational when it's needed most.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to see the nerve center of our region's electric system and discover the people, processes, and infrastructure that power Northern Kentucky every day. Space is limited, so register early to reserve your spot.
