Duke Energy Corp. 2013 SR
The 2013 report highlights Duke Energy's first full year of operation following its merger with Progress Energy, establishing it as the largest U.S. electric utility. Key achievements include completing a $9 billion generation fleet modernization program, retiring over 3,800 MW of older coal units, and reducing U.S. carbon emissions by 20% since 2005. The company also reached a milestone by installing its one-millionth smart meter in Ohio and invested $73 million in charitable giving. However, the report acknowledges significant challenges, including a coal ash spill at the Dan River Steam Station and failing to meet its zero-fatality goal with three work-related deaths recorded.
