- Duke Energy’s soon-to-be CEO Lynn Good has a lot on her plate, and is staying focused on present challenges facing the biggest utility in America, Good told the Charlotte Business Journal Tuesday. Duke’s board recently elected Good to replace the retiring CEO Jim Rogers starting July 1.
- As CEO, Good plans to build the momentum from the Progress merger last year and nurture relationships with regulators and community leaders in familiar and new jurisdictions. “I have to tell you I am not thinking 10 years ahead right now,” Good says.
- Besides the merger, Good will stay deeply vested in nuclear energy and committed to getting a license for the yet-build Lee nuclear plant in South Carolina.
