What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Dominion Energy filed an Integrated Resource Plan with the State Corporation Commission (SCC) to outline its energy supply roadmap for the Commonwealth. The company projects that the average residential bill for 1,000 kWh will rise from $180.31 currently to $258.03 by 2036, and $283.65 by 2046. The SCC's methodology, however, suggests the bill could reach $458.22 by 2046, a projection Dominion Energy disputes as overstated.
