SCANA stockholders on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved the company’s sale to Dominion Energy, moving the deal one step closer to completion.

FERC authorized Dominion Energy’s proposed acquisition of SCANA and its South Carolina Electric & Gas subsidiary.

The Republican majority at FERC narrowed the circumstances under which it will estimate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from natural gas pipeline projects.

South Carolina legislators continue to maneuver as if there is some room to negotiate the terms of a deal to sell SCANA to Dominion, but Dominion CEO Thomas Farrell emphatically rejected that presumption on a conference call to discuss the company’s Q1 2018 earnings.

The Institute for Electric Innovation’s spring 2018 forum featured a discussion on corporate renewable energy procurement and an appearance by Rep. Yvette Clarke.

During an earnings call, Dominion Energy CEO Thomas Farrell expressed confidence that his company’s lobbying in Connecticut and Virginia are track to benefit the company.

Connecticut regulators issued a report on the Millstone nuclear plant, saying the state should procure its energy under a program reserved for renewables.

FERC approved a settlement in a yearslong fight over how much revenue VEPCO should receive for its reactive energy supply fleet.

FERC ruled that transmission projects driven by PJM transmission owners' individual planning criteria are exempt from competitive bidding.

PJM remains disinclined to create procedures to analyze any other cost containment guarantees beyond construction cost caps.
