Q&A: NC regulators listen as they draft a plan to cut CO2 emissions

In this mention

North Carolina regulators are holding public hearings to draft a carbon reduction plan requiring a 70% cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. Duke Energy submitted a conservative plan relying on natural gas and gradual coal phase-out, but environmental groups including the Southern Alliance for Clean Energy, Sierra Club, and NRDC hired consultant Synapse to model alternative scenarios with faster renewable adoption and lower costs.
