Charlotte NC. “Charlotte Gets its Moment in the Sun With New Solar Project” www.nrdc.org 2/25/20. In early 2020 the Charlotte City Council voted to approve a new 35MW, utility-scale solar project that will offset 25% of emissions from City-owned buildings. This action is being pursued via a green tariff arrangement with Duke Energy’s Green Source Advantage program. It represents one concrete step out of Charlotte’s Strategic Energy Action Plan, adopted in 2018. One of the Plan’s goals was to get 100% of the energy for its City buildings from zero carbon sources by 2030.
