A Dominion base rate freeze wouldn’t necessarily freeze your electric bill

Gov. Abigail Spanberger proposed a six-year base rate freeze for Dominion Energy and NextEra Energy as part of their $67B merger. The freeze would not prevent total bill increases, as other charges could rise. Dominion's bills rose 65% from 2007 to 2025 despite no base rate increases. Spanberger seeks higher customer credits and debt financing to reduce costs. The merger faces opposition, with SCC staff recommending rejection due to financial risks.
