Solar, Onshore Wind & Energy Storage Proposals

Dominion Energy Virginia (DEV) is seeking proposals for the acquisition of new solar, onshore wind and energy storage development projects in Virginia. The company will host an informational webinar for interested bidders at 1:00 p.m. ET on June 18, 2026 (see below for more information on how to participate). A separate RFP seeking proposals for Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) is expected to be issued on October 1, 2026.

The acquisition of these projects will support Virginia customers’ future energy needs, consistent with the company’s most recent Integrated Resource Plan. The projects will also advance compliance with the Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA) while delivering broader benefits, including local job creation, increased economic activity in host communities, and additional tax revenue for local governments.

The company is seeking proposals for five categories of development assets:

new photovoltaic ("PV") solar generation
new PV solar generation co-located with energy storage
new onshore wind generation
new onshore wind generation co-located with energy storage
new stand-alone energy storage

For solar proposals, the company is seeking both utility-scale projects exceeding 3 MW and distributed solar projects 3 MW or less. All proposed facilities must be in Virginia. Distributed projects (≤ 3 MW) must be sited within DEV’s service territory and demonstrate locational grid benefits for DEV customers.

Consistent with prior RFPs, proposals for mechanically complete projects of 5 MW or less will also be considered. The company encourages submissions for solar and onshore wind projects located on previously developed sites, such as former landfills or industrial properties.

Acquisition Proposals Only

Dominion Energy is also seeking proposals for non-residential rooftop and carport solar projects within its service territory, including mechanically complete projects, located on commercial, industrial, and government-owned structures. The company is prioritizing projects in Virginia’s urban centers to reduce the load on the electric grid.

Proposals will be accepted on a continuous basis throughout the year. The Company reserves the right to determine the timing of any filings with the State Corporation Commission for project approvals and certificates.

All prospective bidders must register for the RFP by submitting a completed Intent to Bid Form and an executed Confidentiality Agreement (CA). The required documents, along with additional information, are provided below. Submissions should be sent via email to: DEVCleanEnergyRFP-Acquisition@dominionenergy.com.
