Pineside Solar

Overview

Solar is an important part of Virginia’s all-of-the-above energy mix. Looking ahead, Dominion Energy plans to responsibly work with landowners, local governments, and community partners to develop enough renewable energy to power 4 million homes. These projects provide new tax revenues, jobs and economic opportunities for our communities. It’s all about building a brighter future for Virginia, our customers, and the environment.

Our proposed Pineside Solar facility will generate up to 74.9 megawatts of electricity, enough to power just over 18,000 homes at peak output. The project will be located in the north portion of the county, along Route 20 near Bridgeport Road. If granted the necessary permits, the facility will be in service as soon as the end of 2027.
