Under a new agreement between the Commonwealth of Virginia and Dominion Energy, the state will receive 420MW of renewable energy for its universities, state offices, and other facilities, Dominion Energy announced on October 18, 2019. Dominion plans to deliver power for the contract from four proposed solar projects and a 75W wind facility currently in development. The historic contract is the largest procurement of renewable energy by a state and is line with the current goals of both Virginia and Dominion Energy. Just last month, Gov. Ralph Northam signed an executive order committing the state to 100% carbon free energy by 2050 and 30% renewable energy by 2030. The new deal with Dominion, when combined with previous solar projects, will meet 45% of the state government’s annual energy use. The agreement is also a next step for Dominion Energy which committed itself to being one of the most sustainable companies in the United State in their most recent Sustainability Report.
