I would hope that #DukeEnergy has changed its ways in the last 50 years, but they're still taking a PR beating every time people see #HarlanCountyUSA . #Duke's practices back then were utterly inhuman.

Too bad those decision-makers were so short-sighted, just as today's power brokers will someday seem barbaric for fighting us progressives with all their might. #LaborDay https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harlan_County%2C_USA

Was this supposed to be a question?

Pressing “OK” launches the web browser to a bill paying page.

But no, I wanted to monitor our daily energy consumption. Thanks, I guess?

DeSantis’s corporate donors under fire for ‘hypocrisy’ over Black History Month

"Duke Energy gave $2m to the Republican party of Florida, which has embraced DeSantis’s crackdown on “woke” policies on race, gender and public health."

When #DukeEnergy announced "rolling blackouts" during the Christmas cold snap in North Carolina, I said that "rolling blackouts" was corporate-speak for "electricity shortage." I was right, as WRAL-TV reports: https://www.wral.com/duke-energy-acknowledges-multiple-generators-failed-despite-promise-they-were-fully-prepared-for-extreme-cold/20646932/

Duke Energy just sent an email to their customers asking everyone to reduce power consumption to avoid outages. Thermostats lower, hold off on the washer, dryer, dishwasher, and turn off non-essential lights through 10:00am tomorrow morning. #cincinnati #dukeenergy #winterstorm

If you are in North Carolina, Duke Energy has started using rolling blackouts to protect the grid. #dukeenergy #powergrid #northcarolina #blackouts

Text notification from #DukeEnergy. There's a #PowerOutage and estimated time 'til repair is 4:00 PM EST *tomorrow*.

Luckily, we're not in the outage area, but dayum am I glad we have plenty of fire wood. #ChristmasInTheDark #Hanukkah #Candles

There is another rooftop #solar battle brewing in North Carolina where regulators are being pushed by #DukeEnergy to hobble the state's net-metering program.

But the N.C. utilities commission has not conducted its own cost-benefit analysis for residential solar & instead is relaying on Duke's own one-sided, flawed "study" as they deliberate, which violates state law, and possibly PURPA.

““The #Florida Republican-dominated legislature, bought, paid for and commanded by the likes of #BigInsurance, Florida Power and Light, #DukeEnergy and others, like good little children are doing what they are told and literally stripping Florida homeowners of the benefits of insuring their homes.”

More reports of targeted attacks on the energy grid, this time in Florida. This is no longer something unusual or local. This is happening often & nationally. It is happening in red & blue states. This is what #terrorism in America looks like.

“Just days after what officials are calling a “targeted” attack at two Duke Energy substations in North Carolina, NewsNation has obtained federal documents showing evidence of at least six other “intrusions” at Duke Energy substations in Florida.”

In light of #DukeEnergy event in South Carolina:

This cat really knows how to communicate to ex-military, trailer trash that is feeding off of nearby Fort Bragg.
