Duke Energy Plans To Sell Carbon Offsets

Duke Energy plans to offer customers the chance to buy carbon dioxide offsets, The Charlotte Observer reports.

Duke’s program would expand on an existing NC GreenPower program, which allows N.C. utility customers to contribute through their power bill payments to renewable energy.

The cost to customers of the new program still has to be worked out, but the NC GreenPower program sells a 100-kilowatt block for $4.
