The expanded package would accelerate Virginia generation development across solar, battery storage, dispatchable resources and nuclear power.

Existing Virginia assets, including the Virginia City Hybrid Energy Center, would be leveraged while additional renewable energy and storage projects are developed. The initiative is intended to meet Commonwealth growth while balancing affordability, reliability and clean energy objectives.
