Duke Energy's Green Source Advantage program has gained three significant customers: the City of Durham, Durham County Government, and Durham Public Schools, collectively purchasing nearly 35 MW from a new solar facility. Developed by Pine Gate Renewables, the project aims to power operations with 80% renewable energy by 2030 and 100% by 2050. The facility will offset approximately 50% of the city's and 75% of the county's electricity consumption with clean solar power, avoiding greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to over 61,500 acres of U.S. forests annually. Operational by late 2025, this collaboration signifies a milestone in renewable energy progress for Durham.

The settlement was filed with the North Carolina Utilities Commission (NCUC) before an upcoming hearing starting on May 1, where unresolved matters such as return on equity and capital structure will be discussed. Duke Energy Progress continues to actively engage with stakeholders to resolve outstanding issues in its rate request.
