Retro photos: It's Megawatt, the energy dog!

Can you help us ID these photos?

We've heard of a number of energy company mascots, like the most famous, Reddy Kilowatt. And we've heard of Nashville Gas and Heating's Sonny Sunbeam, Florida Power's Louie the lightning Bug and Public Service Indiana's Penny Power. But Duke Power's Megawatt the Energy Dog? Nope.

Megawatt is one of many images in the Duke Energy archives in Charlotte, N.C., that lack proper identification. You can help us improve our records by emailing information about these photos to illumination@duke-energy.com. Include the photo number or attach the image.
