Dominion Energy Reports Q2 Earnings and Updates on Projects
Dominion Energy reported second-quarter operating earnings of $0.79 per share, including a contribution from renewable natural gas credits. The company reaffirmed its full-year guidance for earnings, credit ratings, dividends, and long-term growth. It also completed its common-equity program as planned. Electric demand is rising due to data-center expansion in Dominion's service area, with over 53 gigawatts of capacity under development. Dominion has added more than 5 GW of contracts since the end of 2025 and emphasized a framework that ensures large-load customers cover infrastructure costs without burdening existing ones. The Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project is now 81% complete, though turbine installation was delayed until late 2027. The cost has increased slightly to $11.65 billion. Dominion also announced it and NextEra have entered the regulatory review process for a proposed merger that includes customer bill credits funded by shareholders.
