Withdraw from RGGI
 

Almost 70% of the total is paid by customers of Dominion Energy Virginia.

  • Despite lower emissions in Virginia, RGGI has not and will not lower CO2 in the atmosphere. Virginia uses electricity from the entire PJM interconnection region, including several states which are not a part of any such compact, and CO2 levels are going up worldwide.
