North Carolina Coal Ash Settlement Reached
Duke Energy, the state of North Carolina and environmentalists reach agreement to permanently close all remaining ash basins in North Carolina.
Our Plans
We are modernizing our generation fleet – retiring old coal units and transitioning to cleaner, more efficient energy sources. With help from independent experts, we continue to make significant progress closing coal ash basins in ways that put safety first, protect the environment, minimize impact to communities and manage costs.
