Powering a Growing Virginia

Map of Virginia with a graph showing a peak demand of 24,678 megawatts on Dominion Energy's systems in winter of 2025. This is contrasted with a projected peak demand of 41,500 megawatts in 2035.

Meeting Virginia's Growing Energy Demand

In 2024, energy use in our Virginia service territory resulted in six new all-time peak demand records. And in January 2025, we set three new records. New infrastructure that generates energy is needed to ensure we can continue to reliably serve you.
