CP&L seeks another rate hike amid nuclear build costs
CP&L president Shearon Harris testified before the State Utilities Commission that a 22 percent rate increase now being sought may be followed by additional requests within a year to fund the Brunswick Nuclear Station near Southport. He warned Moody’s ratings drops have raised borrowing costs and said $5.3 billion is needed over 10 years to meet projected demand. He noted peak demand and public conservation gaps during the August heat wave.
