Duke Energy’s Integrated Resources Plan (IRP), a proposal now before the NC Utilities Commission, sets forth how the company will use various energy sources in the next 15 years. While the plan lays out a (slow) roadmap away from coal, it relies heavily on new natural gas facilities (which emit methane) rather than clean, renewable power sources
The NC Utilities Commission is currently accepting public comments on Duke’s plan until April 15 , and NC Warn is calling on us to oppose it and to demand an evidentiary hearing.
