Individuals with a serious medical condition may require electrically-powered medical equipment. To notify Dominion Energy of a serious medical condition in your home, request your physician complete and return the Serious Medical Condition Certification form.

  • The form requires a physician's statement and signature.
  • Completed forms may be emailed toDEMedical@domenergy.com.
  • The form must be renewed every 12 months.
  • A medical notification does not guarantee uninterrupted power. If power goes out, we will make every effort to restore service quickly. Have an alternate care plan or maintain a battery-powered backup in the event of loss of electric service.
  • Customers with a medical notation are responsible for their energy bill and may be disconnected for non-payment.

We are committed to helping you with whatever scenario that comes up. If you experience financial hardship, please call us to discuss account options or learn about available bill payment assistance.

Energy Fuel Costs

To help customers balance the rising cost of fuel, we asked the State Corporation Commission to spread the recovery of costs in annual fuel cost adjustment over three years instead of one. Combined with other savings we have previously identified and in other SCC filings, the net increase would be about $12.55 per month for the typical residential customer.

The change in the fuel factor will go into effect with your July bill.

Dominion Energy also offers solutions that work for you. Programs, services, assistance plans, and account options are available to meet your needs.

Many of these options can be conveniently accessed 24/7 through your online account or with the Dominion Energy app.
