Using mythical data, false assumptions and attempts
to magically turn billion-dollar failures into proof that
new nuclear reactors might finally be built successfully, Duke Energy is planning the nation’s largest expansion of nuclear power.

"As customers across the Carolinas question rising electricity costs, Duke Energy is proposing a rate hike that could increase bills by up to 18%."

"More than 70,000 people have signed a petition launched by a Raleigh resident calling for an audit of the company’s billing system and refunds for customers."

NC WARN’s resolution states Gov. Stein must break through the deception and help the public understand that NC is on the wrong course, and that Duke Energy must finally begin a genuine transition to clean energy.

Over 320 elected leaders and groups have added their voices to a growing call for Governor Josh Stein to stop Duke’s Energy’s massive expansion of fossil fuels and suppression of renewables.
Sign your group’s name to or ask your elected official to sign the resolution at StopDukeEnergy.com today 🔥
It’s time for Gov. Stein to hold Duke Energy accountable and demand a better future for all North Carolinians.

The governor needs to force Duke Energy to get off fossil fuels instead of expanding them, beginning immediately. The world's leading scientists say we are blowing past global targets and heading toward a point of no return toward climate breakdown.

Stein makes a very weak claim that he has challenged Duke Energy. Instead, he continues its deception that NC is shifting to clean energy- despite Duke's massive expansion of climate- and rate-wrecking fossil fuels and nukes and suppression of renewables.

On Saturday, the Chatham community showed up to make their voices heard in a roadside demonstration in Pittsboro, calling on Gov. Stein to hold Duke Energy accountable.
Call on Stein to be a climate champion at StopDukeEnergy.com 📣💥
“We urge Gov. Stein to become a national climate champion,” the resolution continued, “by using every tool available to him to persuade or require Duke Energy executives to phase out deadly and dangerous fuel sources and transition to affordable, resilient, and renewable energy.”
NC WARN says Josh Stein should side with climate scientists and North Carolinians hit by weather disasters and constant power bill hikes. #PeopleOverProfits

While NC WARN is disappointed in the dismissal, we commend Carrboro’s bravery in filing this lawsuit and we call on every North Carolinian to take action at StopDukeEnergy.com!
The Town of Carrboro has chosen not to appeal a court’s February dismissal of its groundbreaking climate lawsuit against Duke Energy Corporation that was filed in December 2024.

Read NC WARN’s latest news release to learn more about Duke Energy’s continued deception and what it means for North Carolina’s climate future.
www.ncwarn.org/2026/02/the-...
Last year, state lawmakers rolled back North Carolina’s short-term climate goal. Now, Duke Energy projects emissions will continue to rise before somehow falling by 2050.
WFAE reports that Kristina Costa of the University of Chicago calls this “magical thinking.”
@wfae.bsky.social
NC says climate pollution is “lowest in decades.” Not true.
Duke counts CO2 but ignores super-potent methane gas. Now it plans more gas plants leading to more pollution and higher bills 📈

These discussions are especially crucial in light of Duke Energy’s CONTINUED economic and climate harm to our communities; 7 days ago, Duke reported $5 billion in profits while pushing to raise energy bills for North Carolinians by 18%. #PeopleOverProfits

Last week, the EPA rescinded the government’s authority to regulate greenhouse gases. People at the state level must change leading polluters like Duke Energy, which is planning the largest gas buildout of any US corp. We need state leaders like Gov. Stein to lead the charge!
Duke Energy reported $5 billion in profits yesterday. They are currently pushing to raise energy bills in NC by 18%.

Statement from Executive Director Jim Warren.
www.ncwarn.org/2026/02/judg...
A North Carolina business court judge dismissed a groundbreaking climate lawsuit filed by the Town of Carrboro against Duke Energy Corporation in December 2024. While we are disappointed and disagree with the result, Carrboro is evaluating all of its options, including appeal.
NC WARN appreciates all the line workers with Duke Energy and contractors who have helped restore power and helped people be safe during the ice storm.
