Utilities CEOs warn fuel clause key to avoid power cuts
North Carolina power company heads led by Duke Power’s Carl Horn and CP&L’s Shearon Harris told a legislative committee that without the fuel adjustment clause they faced bankruptcy or mass rationing in 1974. They cited $153 million and $72 million collected, respectively, and urged rate stability to fund expansion. Harris and Horn opposed a 25 percent cut for residential customers, while CP&L cut salaries to shore up finances.
