Duke Energy plans two new gas peaker plants in Rockingham County to boost grid reliability, with possible 2032 operation.
Duke Energy is evaluating a Rockingham County site at its Belews Creek facility for two new natural gas peaker plants to meet peak electricity demand, citing grid reliability needs.
The existing site offers infrastructure, workforce, and transmission access.
The project, part of Duke’s 2025 Carolinas Resource Plan, would require state and federal approvals and could be operational by 2032.
Duke also plans five new combined cycle gas plants by 2033 and is exploring small modular nuclear reactors nearby, with an early site permit submitted to the NRC.
