Electric Generating Stations

Dominion's generating facilities produce about 27,500 megawatts of efficient electric power.

Our fossil-fueled power stations primarily use coal to generate power provided to customers. Our nuclear stations have attracted international attention for their innovative programs, achievements and efficiency. We also use renewable energy to produce electricity, including wind, biomass fuels, and water that powers our hydroelectric generating facilities. We also have a number of independent stations that contribute to the generation portfolio.

Dominion Generation uses this variety of power stations to enhance our system's reliability. This guards against major problems that might be produced by economic, environmental or technical problems that could arise in a single area.

The following table lists our generating units with links to help you learn more about them. For net summer capabilities and total generation data, visit our SEC Filings page and view the most recent Form 10K. Contact us if you need additional information.
