KAN's mission is to promote the aluminum industry as a "Signature Industry" for the state of Kentucky by raising awareness of and addressing the challenges and opportunities facing this sector; and deliver important information about the industry to key stakeholders, policy makers, and leaders.

KAN's core issues include:

• Available cost effective Energy
• A fair and level playing field in Environmental Policy and Regulation
• Workforce Development training programs and facilities
• Facility Infrastructure renovation and updating

The Kentucky Aluminum Network is an association of aluminum producers, vendors and others who recognize the impact the industry has on Kentucky's economy, workforce, and manufacturing base in the state.

The Network serves as an advocacy group to inform our elected officials and the public of both the challenges and opportunities facing the industry. The industry supports over 14,000 jobs in Kentucky that generate $80-100 million dollars in local and state taxes.

Kentucky provides a unique location for the industry creating advantages such as the 2nd lowest electrical rates in the country and proximity to two-thirds the US population.
