Attorney General Jeff Jackson has announced that his office will review Duke Energy’s proposed rate increase. The move comes amid broader concerns about rising costs and the impact on residents.
“With costs rising everywhere, it’s important we take a close look at Duke Energy’s proposed rate increase to ensure it is necessary. My office is intervening to make sure we find the right balance between investing in our energy infrastructure and protecting North Carolinians’ wallets,” Jackson stated.
Jackson’s intervention aims to examine whether the requested rate hike is justified, weighing the need for infrastructure investment against consumer financial burdens.
