At Dominion Energy, we are committed to continually reviewing and analyzing our energy infrastructure to provide safe and reliable electric service. We are planning to replace an aging 230 kV (kilovolt) electric transmission line located in New Kent, King William, King and Queen, Essex and Richmond Counties, to maintain reliable service for our customers. This construction will occur along a 41 mile corridor and remain within the existing right of way crossing the Mattaponi, Pamunkey and Rappahannock Rivers.

We are in the planning stages to rebuild a 230 kilovolt (kV) transmission line from Lanexa, Virginia to the Northern Neck area just east of Warsaw, Virginia. We’re planning to replace the existing H frame structures with a taller, double circuit monopole structure and in some cases we’re also replacing existing lattice structures with a similar structure – constructed from a different material. This construction will occur along a 41 mile corridor and remain within the existing right of way while crossing the Mattaponi, Pamunkey and Rappahannock Rivers. We’re currently replacing the structures and cables crossing the Mattaponi River.
This project is needed to replace aging equipment. After nearly 5 decades of service, the structures and related components are at the end of their service life and need to be replaced to ensure reliable operation of the transmission line.
There are no planned service interruptions for this project
There may be some traffic delays.
Noise levels will be moderate; permits are in place.
This project may have limited environmental impacts.
Access to surrounding neighborhoods may be impacted.
