It's easy to match your electricity use with renewable energy. When you enroll in Dominion Energy Green Power, your monthly investment goes towards the purchase of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from wind, solar, and biomass facilities in Virginia and the surrounding region. The purchase of RECs helps to support future growth and production of new clean energy facilities.
When you sign up, we buy Green-e Energy® certified renewable energy certificates (RECs) from renewable energy facilities on your behalf to guarantee that renewable energy is generated and delivered to the power pool in the amount specified.
There are two Dominion Energy Green Power enrollment options:
Pricing Details: This option allows you to match your entire monthly electricity usage with Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This additional cost is calculated by adding 1.3 cents ($0.013) per kilowatt-hour (kWh) of electricity used to your monthly bill.
Example: If you are enrolled in the 100% Option and use 1,000 kWh per month, you can expect to pay $13 more per month for Dominion Energy Green Power (1,000 kWh x $0.013). Actual cost will be calculated by Dominion Energy and will vary from month to month according to your actual electricity use.
Calculations are approximate and based on EPA methodology.
Pricing Details: This option allows you to purchase Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) in blocks. Each block costs $2 (based on a rate of $0.013 per kWh), and represents 154 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of renewable energy. You can add as many blocks as you wish to your monthly bill, and they will be charged each month.
Example: If you are enrolled in the Block Option and choose to purchase12 blocks, $24 will be added to your monthly electricity bill to support renewable energy (12 blocks x $2). This charge will be the same fixed amount on your bill each month.
Calculations are approximate and based on EPA methodology.

No. Dominion Energy Green Power is a voluntary program that provides customers with the option to be leaders in the growth of renewable energy above and beyond other government goals or requirements. Your purchase really makes a difference. The RECs purchased for the Dominion Energy Green Power program are retired on behalf of program participants and are completely separate from any other RECs Dominion Energy Virginia may purchase to achieve Virginia's voluntary Renewable Energy Goal of 15 percent of base year electricity energy sales coming from renewable energy sources by 2025.
The Dominion Energy Green Power program is designed for customers who want to support renewable energy in addition to what Dominion Energy is doing to meet Virginia's Renewable Energy Goal (Dominion’s Clean Energy Vision). Through participation in this program, we will purchase Green-e Energy® certified renewable energy certificates in the amount specified by participating customers. These certificates verify that the amount of renewable energy purchased was generated and delivered to the regional power pool.
