CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Deriva Energy, formerly known as Duke Energy Renewables, has relocated to a 33,606-square-foot office space at One South on the Plaza, a 40-story office tower located in Uptown Charlotte. The new office will serve as the headquarters for Deriva, which plans to move in by late fall. Chris Schaaf and Jamie Boast of JLL represented Deriva Energy in the lease negotiations, while Rhea Greene of Trinity Partners represented the undisclosed landlord.
