Enacted in October 2021, North Carolina House Bill 951 requires the North Carolina Public Service Commission to take all reasonable steps to achieve a 70% reduction in 2005 carbon emissions levels by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050. In July 2021, Executive Order 218 set a target of 2.8 GW of offshore wind by 2030 and 8.0 GW by 2040.
Duke Energy is considering the development of an Acquisition Request for Information (ARFI) to inform the availability of competitive offshore wind resources for Duke Energy ownership.
