CHARLOTTE NC:  The Queen City is becoming "The Energy Capital of the World."  Charlotte has been known, in past decades as an industrial center, moving in more recent decades into the banking sector, now considered the 2nd largest banking center in the United States.  With 240 companies employing about 25,000 people in Charlotte's energy sector, Charlotte is quickly becoming known as one of the world's largest energy employment hubs.
