Republican gains in Virginia's elections raise questions about the state’s commitment to reaching 100% carbon-free electricity by 2050.

Virginia researchers' report on a new computer model shows that the state is on track to zero out its carbon emissions by 2050 and meet targets set by the VCEA.

A report found that Dominion can meet the VCEA’s 1.25% energy savings target for 2022, but the utility admitted it's unlikely to meet the 5% target for 2025. 

The Sierra Club urged the Virginia SCC to reject APCo’s bid for $31.6 million in environmental costs for two coal-fired plants, saying they should be retired.

Dominion Energy admitted it is likely to fall short of Virginia's energy savings requirements, while environmental groups urged more aggressive measures.

The Virginia State Corporation Commission on April 30 gave Dominion Energy the go-ahead to spend $10.4 million to build three solar projects totaling 82 MW.

Virginia lawmakers have approved legislation to tighten vehicle emission standards and promote electric vehicles.

New legislation offers Virginia schools a chance to replace polluting diesel buses with electric ones, but battery issues are a roadblock.

In a ruling that highlights rifts in Virginia’s electricity sector, the State Corporation Commission rejected Costco’s bid to buy power across state lines.

The challenge by P3 and EPSA is the first major test of a 2013 Virginia law requiring utilities to demonstrate that they have considered competitive bids.
