June 8, 2026 — No Dominion Energy representative was in attendance at the Virginia Offshore Wind Development Authority meeting earlier this week – even as the utility hopes state regulators sign off on a massive merger.
The panel, which was established in 2010, works to foster development of the industry through research and makes recommendations to help projects reach fruition.
Dominion and NextEra Energy announced a merger in May, which will be subject to “detailed scrutiny” from state regulators in Virginia and North Carolina before being finalized.
