HC Energie Karlovy Vary is a professional ice hockey team based in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic. They play in the Czech Extraliga.

KHL Expansion

The club planned to create an independent expansion team for the 2009–10 KHL season. This team would have attempted to operate as a national team of sorts for the Czech Republic by luring top players from the Czech Extraliga, in the same way as Dinamo Minsk and Dinamo Riga do in their respective countries. The team did not play in the Kontinental Hockey League that season, and it is now unclear when or if it ever will. Energie's junior team joined the MHL, KHL's junior league, for the 2012–13 season, but then left after the 2014–15 season.[1]
