By Staff Reports | 04/06/2018
Duke University has decided to delay construction indefinitely of a proposed Combined Heat and Power (CHP) plant, the University announced Friday.
Instead, the University will pursue opportunities to employ biogas and other fuels for its energy. The proposed plant has drawn considerable criticism on campus and in the community, as groups including the Duke Climate Coalition and NC WARN have opposed the construction of the natural gas-powered facility.
