Association of Energy Engineers | Kern Chapter

The AEE Kern Chapter is the local chapter of the Association of Energy Engineers, serving professionals across Kern County— The Energy Capital of the West. Kern County is home to some of the most diverse and productive energy resources in the state, including major oil and gas operations, expansive solar and wind farms, bioenergy facilities, and one of the largest geothermal projects in the U.S. This rich energy landscape makes our region a vital hub for innovation, sustainability, and the future of energy in California. As a chapter, we are committed to advancing energy efficiency, clean technology, and professional development in both traditional and renewable energy sectors. We connect engineers, facility managers, energy consultants, students, and sustainability leaders through technical events, networking opportunities, AEE certification programs, and community outreach. Whether you're shaping the future of oil and gas, leading decarbonization efforts, or just beginning your energy career, the AEE Kern Chapter is your professional home.
