Duke Energy Foundation awarded $180,000 in grants to nine South Carolina technical colleges to expand construction-related training and support certifications in high-demand trades. Each college received $20,000 to enhance programs like welding and electrician training, addressing labor shortages amid the state's growth. This initiative supports projects like Duke Energy's new natural gas facility, which requires thousands of skilled workers. Since 2016, the foundation has invested $5.4 million in similar workforce development efforts across South Carolina.
