"The NFEDP is a model for the successful implementation of rural economic development. The organization provides a leadership role, which has resulted in more competitive communities and collaboration, further strengthening fifteen distinct counties into a unified, competitive force. They also exhibit fierce determination, a critical component to seeing a project through and closing deals for the region they serve. Duke Energy greatly values the contributions the NFEDP makes to the success of this region, and we are proud to support their efforts.”
