## Overview Dominion Energy is one of the United States’ largest producers and transporters of energy, headquartered in Richmond, Virginia[6]. The company delivers regulated electricity to 3.6 million homes and businesses across Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina, and regulated natural gas service to 500,000 customers in South Carolina[6]. Dominion Energy is also recognized as a leading developer and operator of regulated offshore wind and solar power, and is the largest producer of carbon-free electricity in New England[6]. Its mission centers on providing reliable, affordable, and increasingly clean energy while minimizing environmental impacts and strengthening the communities it serves[8]. ## History and Evolution Dominion’s roots trace back to 1909 with the founding of the Virginia Railway & Power Company, which initially focused on electric and transportation services in Virginia[1][2]. In 1925, the company was renamed the Virginia Electric and Power Company (VEPCO), reflecting its growing emphasis on electricity generation and distribution[1][2]. The mid-20th century saw significant expansion, including the development of thermal and nuclear power plants[1]. A major transformation occurred in 1983 with the creation of Dominion Resources, Inc., a holding company that diversified beyond traditional utility operations into investment management and real estate[3][4]. The company’s strategic acquisitions, such as the 2000 merger with Consolidated Natural Gas, propelled it into the ranks of the largest integrated natural gas and electric companies in the U.S.[1][3]. In 2007, Dominion Resources rebranded as Dominion Energy, signaling a broader energy portfolio[1]. ## Key Achievements and Strategic Moves Dominion Energy’s growth has been marked by both expansion and strategic refocusing. Notable milestones include the acquisition of SCANA Corporation in 2017, which expanded its footprint in the Southeast and added significant natural gas and nuclear assets[2][4]. The company has also been a pioneer in renewable energy,
