Progress Energy will delay building a new reactor at the Shearon Harris 
nuclear plant in Wake County and instead push customers to use less 
electricity.

Robert McGehee, chief executive of the Raleigh utility, said Wednesday 
that the company will also observe a moratorium on proposing 
coal-burning power plants as it devotes the next two years to testing 
whether its 1.2 million customers in the state are willing to commit to 
energy efficiency.
