2021 Request for Proposals

Dominion Energy Virginia is continuing its support of solar development in the Commonwealth with a request for proposals (RFP) for distributed solar projects to help meet renewable energy goals set forth by the company and the Commonwealth. New renewable generation resources are also needed to achieve the Company’s commitment of net zero carbon emissions from its power generation fleet by 2050 and to meet targets as set forth in the Virginia Clean Economy Act signed by Governor Northam on April 11, 2020. Renewable Energy Credits from these new resources are intended to be used for purposes of compliance with the Renewable Portfolio Standard as defined in the Virginia Clean Economy Act.

The RFP is soliciting bids for development assets for new distributed solar generation facilities under asset purchase agreements. The RFP is also seeking power purchase agreement bids where the Company will enter into an agreement for the energy, capacity, ancillary services, and environmental attributes including Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from the facility. The solar facilities must be located in Virginia and either within the Dominion Energy Virginia service area or connecting to the Company’s distribution network. Facilities are limited to 3 MWs of capacity at the same or contiguous locations and multiple 3 MW projects at the same or contiguous locations will not be considered for this RFP. The 2021 RFP seeks proposals for up to 175 megawatts of small-scale solar projects, including 80 MW commercially operational by the end of 2023 and 95 MW by the end of 2024.

The RFP outlines the exact proposal requirements, including the power and asset purchase agreement terms as well as the price and non-price evaluation criteria. Among several criteria, the Company will favorably consider each proposal’s use of labor, materials and other resources within Virginia and from Virginia businesses.

DEADLINES: Notices of Intent to Bid and Confidentiality Agreements are due by May 20, 2021 with final Asset Purchase proposals due August 2, 2021 and Power Purchase proposals due March 1, 2022.

Customers and developers interested in learning more about the company's renewable energy expansion plans may contact us via email: 2021DERSolarRFP@dominionenergy.com.

Solar generation is a vital part of Dominion Energy's comprehensive clean energy strategy to meet standards outlined in the Virginia Clean Economy Act and to achieve the company's net zero carbon dioxide and methane emissions commitment by 2050. This RFP will help the company continue to add additional renewable energy resources to meet those goals.
