5 June 2008 -- The North Carolina Utilities Commission said it approved Duke Energy Carolinas' request to build two 620 MW combined cycle, natural gas-fired units.

Regulators approved the company's request for certificates of public convenience and necessity (CPCN) to add two natural gas-fired units at two existing facilities – Buck Steam Station and Dan River Steam Station.

The company says it will begin construction at the Buck facility once it receives its air permit. Construction at Dan River is scheduled to follow. Pending regulatory approval, the new Buck unit is expected to be in operation in the summer of 2010. The plan includes retiring two older coal units at each facility.
