Duke Energy's Green Source Advantage continues solar expansion in North Carolina

Duke University has become the first academic institution to execute a renewable power agreement under Duke Energy's Green Source Advantage (GSA) program – further expanding solar energy in North Carolina. Duke University will purchase about 101 megawatts (MW) of solar capacity from three solar facilities in North Carolina. The power generated will partially offset the university's energy usage. "The Green Source Advantage is an ideal fit for colleges and universities seeking to advance their renewable energy and sustainability goals," said Stephen De May, Duke Energy's North Carolina president. "The innovative program's flexibility allows for a major expansion of renewable energy in North Carolina."
