At Dominion Energy, we are dedicated to maintaining reliable and secure electric service in the communities we serve. The Yadkin-Fentress 500 kilovolt (kV) Electric Transmission Line Project proposes to rebuild 14 miles of existing 500 kV transmission line that runs from the Yadkin Substation on Yadkin Road to the Fentress Substation on Meredith Drive and Fentress Loop in Chesapeake, Virginia.
This project is needed to replace aging equipment and to add additional infrastructure to deliver the renewable energy generated by the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) project. This transmission line was built on lattice structures. We are proposing to wreck the existing, aging 500 kV line and build two 500 kV transmission lines on separate monopole structures. The approach is to maximize the use of the existing transmission corridor by changing the current lattice-type structure so two independent transmission lines can be built without requiring new or expanded right of way.
We will host a community meeting in spring 2024 to share more information about this project and for you to speak with project team members.
More details will be provided as activities progress.
