Dominion Energy Virginia (DEV) is seeking proposals for the acquisition of new solar, onshore wind and energy storage development projects in Virginia. The company will host an informational webinar for interested bidders at 1 p.m. EST on May 9 (see below for more information on how to join). A separate RFP seeking proposals for Power Purchase Agreements (PPA) will be issued on October 1.
Acquisition of the projects will support Virginia customers’ future energy needs as outlined in the company’s most recent Integrated Resource Plan. The projects will also help the company achieve the requirements of the Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA) and its commitment to Net Zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. Additionally, the projects will support local jobs, increase spending in local communities and bring in new tax revenue for local governments.
The company is interested in proposals for five categories of development assets:
For solar proposals, the company is seeking both utility-scale projects that are greater than 3 MW, as well as distributed projects that are 3 MW or less. The company will only consider facilities located in Virginia. For distributed projects that are 3 MW or less, the facilities must be located within DEV’s service territory where there are location grid benefits to DEV customers. The company also encourages the submission of solar and onshore wind projects on previously developed sites, such as former landfills or industrial uses.
In the solar category, one new aspect of this year’s RFP is that Dominion Energy is seeking proposals within its service territory for non-residential rooftop solar development or mechanically complete projects, specifically on commercial, industrial and government-owned structures. The company is particularly seeking rooftop solar projects, less than 3 megawatts (MW), in Virginia’s urban centers to reduce the load on the electric grid.
Proposals will be accepted on a continuous basis throughout the year. As in last year’s RFP, proposals for mechanically complete projects that are 5 MW or less will be accepted. The Company reserves the right to determine the appropriate timing to petition the State Corporation Commission for necessary project approvals and certificates.
