The Florida Public Service Commission on Tuesday invited Duke Energy CEO Jim Rogers to an Aug. 13 status update on the broken Crystal River nuclear plant, and the utility says he will attend.
Duke Energy merged with Progress Energy July 2, becoming the largest utility in the nation with 7.1 million customers, including 1.6 million in Florida.
Rogers told the North Carolina Utilities Commission July 11 that Duke had conducted its own study of the Crystal River nuclear plant's troubles prior to the merger. The management of the utility's sole nuclear plant in Florida was part of the reason former Progress CEO Bill Johnson lost his job as head of the combined company.
