Carolinas' Nuclear Cluster.

• Position: MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION - Company overview

Carolinians are world leaders in the design, construction and supply of electricity. The Carolinas supply 11.5% of the nation's nuclear energy.

Our states are home to four publicly traded power generating companies and major energy engineering companies. Our two states have a strong nuclear supply chain and we are strengthening that supply chain.
