Support for the South Carolina community

Here in South Carolina, we’ve been a part of the community for more than 100 years. Our more than 4,000 South Carolina teammates are committed to making the investments that matter most to our community.

That means investments in the energy grid for better reliability in hurricane season and every season. It also means more renewables, like solar, and new ways for you to manage your energy use and spending. 

And finally it means more support for the community and the local economy – all to help power your life here in the Carolinas.
