Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On November 20, 2025, Duke Energy Carolinas, LLC (“DEC”) and Duke Energy Progress, LLC (“DEP”, and together with DEC, the “Companies”) each filed rate cases with the North Carolina Utilities Commission (“NCUC”) seeking approval for increases in retail revenues. Both filings include requests for Performance Based Regulation mechanisms, featuring a two-year Multi-Year Rate Plan as well as residential decoupling, performance incentive mechanisms, and an earnings sharing mechanism.
If approved by the NCUC, for DEC, the net increase in retail revenues in year one would be approximately $727 million (10.9%), followed by $275 million (4.1%) in year two – a total 15.0% increase; and for DEP, the net increase in retail revenues in year one would be approximately $528 million (10.9%), followed by $200 million (4.1%) in year two – a total 15.1% increase. DEP’s revenue request is net of a proposed Production Tax Credit (“PTC”) Rider, which would flow back monetized PTCs to customers beginning in 2027. DEC already has an established PTC Rider in place.
The Companies have requested the NCUC approve the requested total Year 1 rates to be effective no later than January 1, 2027. Although a procedural schedule has not yet been established by the NCUC, hearings are expected to commence in third-quarter 2026.
An overview providing additional detail on the filings is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1. The information in Exhibit 99.1 is being furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section.
