The Bottom Line

  • We plan to meet the increased demand in Virginia and North Carolina through a balanced program that includes construction of new generating facilities, including those using renewable energy sources, and upgrades of existing generating units.
     
  • We're also developing programs to help customers use energy more efficiently and reduce their demand for electricity at peak times, including very hot or cold days.
     
  • In addition, we are also making significant improvements and expansions to our electric transmission and distribution system to improve service reliability and meet future demand.
