The North Carolina Utilities Commission is hearing testimony Wednesday from expert witnesses evaluating the impacts of Duke Energy’s “Carbon Plan/Integrated Resource Plan,” its roadmap for how it will achieve emissions reductions and carbon neutrality as mandated in House Bill 951.
The experts — including Kendal Bowman, president of all of Duke’s utility operations in North Carolina, as well as government officials, and private businesses — will provide testimony to and be interrogated by the commission on its efforts to satisfy the dual mandates of least cost reliability and carbon reduction goals.
