Stein appeals Duke Energy rate increase
The appeal attempts to roll back an increase for customers in the eastern half of North Carolina. Briefs are due Friday in a separate case covering the western half of the state.
Posted — UpdatedThe Sierra Club has also filed an appeal in the case.
In a statement Wednesday, Duke said it believes the increase decision was fair and noted that rates remain below the national average.
This case affects Duke Energy Progress customers. Duke Energy Carolinas, which powers much of the western half of the state, has its own rate increase before the Utilities Commission. Final briefs are due Friday in that case, and the commission will decide the increase later.
