Days may be numbered for Ellen’s Energy Adventure at Epcot

LAKE BUENA VISTA, FL — Changes could be coming at Epcot according to plans filed with the South Florida water management district.

The permit application filed by the Walt Disney Company, seeks approval to fill in the canal at Ellen’s Energy Adventure, and pave part of the forest directly behind the attraction.

Walt Disney Imagineering is behind the project, according to an email in the plan documents.

Disney has not commented on the possible changes, and the plans don’t reference any demolition or construction work on the attraction itself.

The Universe of Energy opened in 1982, and was updated to its current version with Ellen DeGeneres as host in 1996.
