Duke Energy Advocates for More Gas-Fired Power in U.S. South

Lynn Good, the CEO of Duke Energy, spoke earlier this week at Columbia University's 2024 Columbia Global Energy Summit in New York City. Duke is a giant electric and gas utility headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina. Duke services 7.2 million customers in North and South Carolina, Florida, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Indiana. It even has a utility business in Puerto Rico. In the past, Duke owned and operated coal-fired power plants. Today, Duke makes extensive use of nuclear energy. The company also builds and uses natural gas-fired power. At the Columbia event, Good delivered news to the lefties they didn't want to hear: In the near term, natural gas is the only practical solution to generating more electricity to meet increasing demand.
