Duke Energy moves to decarbonize, but some say not fast enough
In this mention
Duke Energy filed integrated resource plans with Carolina regulators showing scenarios for reducing carbon emissions by 2035, including options with no new gas plants and significant renewable capacity additions. Environmental advocates and energy analysts argue Duke's plans underestimate renewable feasibility and overestimate costs, while Maggie Shober of SACE points to structural market issues like lack of open procurement that discourage renewable adoption.
All-source procurements usually produce "lower-carbon results even though you're not valuing carbon at any way in the process necessarily"
