Duke Energy is planning to build 16 new methane gas power plants in North Carolina, including two at Hyco Lake in Person County and others in Catawba and Rowan counties. This buildout is part of retiring aging coal plants and is justified by speculative future demand, including data centers. Additional unplanned pipelines may be required through 2040.
