Competitive Energy Suppliers

Electricity Reregulation in Virginia - the 2007 General Assembly passed legislation, S.B. 1416 and H.B. 3068, which re-established retail rate regulation.

Effective January 1, 2009, electricity customers with annual demands more than 5 MW acquired the option to shop for competitive electricity supply, as well as 2 or more nonresidential retail customers that aggregate to reach 5 MW of load to become qualified to purchase electric energy from a Competitive Service Provider and petition, and receive approval from, the Virginia State Corporation Commission. In addition, individual retail customers regardless of customer class may purchase Electricity Supply Service provided 100% from renewable energy from a Competitive Service Provider if the Company does not offer an approved tariff for electric energy provided 100% from renewable energy. On July 2, 2020, the State Corporation Commission of Virginia approved the Company's 100% renewable energy tariff – Rider TRG. Learn more about Rider TRG.

On July 1, 2019, the Company implemented a 12-month minimum-stay period applicable to accounts with an annual peak demand of 500 kW or greater that received Electricity Supply Service from a Competitive Service Provider and return to purchase Electricity Supply Service from the Company. The 12-month minimum-stay period does not apply to accounts that are abandoned by a Competitive Service Provider or purchase Electricity Supply Service provided 100% from renewable energy from a Competitive Service Provider.

Once a customer chooses to receive Electricity Supply Service from a Competitive Service Provider and then chooses to return to receive Electricity Supply Service from the Company, the customer shall do so pursuant to the prices, terms, and conditions of the Company’s tariffs approved by the State Corporation Commission of Virginia and abide, if applicable, by the 12-month minimum-stay requirements or to accept the service at market-based costs without the obligation of a minimum-stay requirement.
