May 2025: Dominion Energy

May Featured Member Dominion Energy’s Energy Conservation programs have demonstrated remarkable success, particularly through their Residential Virtual Audit initiatives in Virginia and North Carolina. In Virginia, the program saw a 17% increase in participation in 2024. This growth was mirrored in the energy savings achieved, with the program reaching 74% of the planned energy savings target in 2024. Similarly, North Carolina’s program showed impressive improvements, with energy savings reaching 73% of the planned targets in 2024. These figures highlight the effectiveness of Dominion Energy’s strategies in helping customers save money and promoting energy-efficient practices.

In addition to the Virtual Audit programs, Dominion Energy has made significant strides in supporting income and age-qualifying households. The Income and Age Qualifying Residential Bundle, launched in 2024, successfully assisted approximately 3,400 customers. This initiative, along with the efforts of Weatherization Service Providers, has exceeded projected budget goals by installing energy efficiency measures in eligible households. The achieved net annual energy savings of 3,661 MWh/year, which is 266% of the planned energy savings, underscores the program’s success in delivering substantial energy conservation benefits to vulnerable communities.

The success of Dominion Energy’s energy conservation efforts is further exemplified by the performance of their Residential Energy Efficiency Marketplace. The updated marketplace had a strong first year, resulting in 145% of planned units incentivized, 131% of planned energy savings, and 88% of planned expenditures. These results indicate robust engagement with consumers and a high level of effectiveness in promoting energy-efficient products.

Overall, Dominion Energy’s comprehensive approach to energy conservation, through targeted programs and innovative solutions, has yielded impressive results. The substantial increases in participation and energy savings across various initiatives demonstrate the company’s dedication to providing the reliable, affordable, and increasingly clean energy that powers our customers every day. By continually adapting and improving their energy conservation programs, Dominion Energy is making significant contributions to reducing energy consumption and supporting the needs of diverse communities.
