Dominion Energy Virginia is seeking proposals from developers for new solar, onshore wind and energy storage projects. The company issues annual Requests for Proposals (RFPs) to support the goals of the Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA) and help the company achieve its goal of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
The company is seeking proposals for up to 1,000 megawatts of solar and onshore wind and up to 100 megawatts of energy storage projects. The company may either purchase these projects or enter into power purchase agreements (PPAs) with third-party developers. Projects must be greater than 3 megawatts and located in Virginia.
This year’s RFP includes additional guidance for cooperation with local governments and strengthened requirements for environmental justice. Project developers must submit a robust assessment of each project’s impact on environmental justice and, where applicable, demonstrate meaningful engagement with the communities where projects are located.
Notices of Intent to Bid and Confidentiality Agreements are due by May 20, 2021.
Those interested may also contact the company with questions by emailing 2021SolarWindStorageRFP@dominionenergy.com.
