Legislation · Virginia · 2026 Regular Session
SB 818: Electric utilities; licensed retail suppliers, renewable portfolio standard requirements.
Summary
Electric utilities; licensed retail suppliers; renewable portfolio standard requirements. Permits an individual retail customer of electric energy from Appalachian Power or Dominion Energy Virginia whose noncoincident peak demand exceeded five megawatts during 2024 or any year thereafter to purchase electric energy from a licensed supplier within the Commonwealth. Currently, such a customer may only purchase electric energy from a licensed supplier if the customer's peak demand did not exceed one percent of the incumbent electric utility's peak load during the most recent calendar year unless the customer had a noncoincident peak demand of more than 90 megawatts. The bill requires a licensed supplier providing electric energy to such a customer to meet the annual renewable portfolio standard program requirements on an aggregate basis for all electric energy sold within the incumbent electric utility's service territory during a compliance year.
