Investing in a Cleaner Energy Future

Dominion Energy has the sixth largest solar fleet in the nation. By focusing on clean energy – solar, wind, natural gas, and nuclear – we are working to lower emissions while protecting our customers’ needs.

As we continue to focus on clean energy, we estimate that over one million customers’ electric needs could be powered with solar energy in the next 15 years. We are also working to improve both the access to and production of natural gas. Natural gas burns cleaner, lowering emissions and improving air quality.

Improving Reliability and Innovation

Modernization of the electric grid means fewer outages, faster restoration times, and new tools to allow customers to track and control their energy usage. It also makes it easier and faster for customers to connect to rooftop solar resources. This means improved standards for physical protection of critical infrastructure and cybersecurity to improve network security throughout the grid.

Providing Affordable Energy to Customers

Dominion Energy works to keep fuel costs low. Even with plans to modernize the grid, our predictions show customers will still receive affordable rates for years to come. Our Rates 101 page provides information about your electric rates and how they are calculated. Please keep in mind that weather and other factors have an impact on energy bills.
