Always play to your strengths, whether your strengths are gender-based or just natural aptitude.

What we are investing in, from a generation standpoint, are renewables and natural gas.

As we look ahead, we see increasing opportunities for Duke in natural gas - not just for producing electricity, but in providing gas for our customers. We have been investing in renewables as well throughout the U.S.

Our nation's power plant fleet must include a mix of solar, wind, hydro, natural gas and nuclear plants.

Through Duke Energy's strong balance sheet and electric generation expertise, and Piedmont's understanding of natural gas markets and proficient operations, the combined company will be well-positioned for a future that may require additional natural gas infrastructure and services to meet the needs of our customers.

Leaders play a unique role in periods of crisis and chaos. Because if you don't, you're not going to harness the power of all the people behind you.
