The bottom line is this: there is no proof that Virginia will need the additional electricity. According to the American counsel for an Energy Efficient Economy, Virginia ranks in the bottom ten states in regards to efficient use of energy. Our group encourages Dominion power to seek energy alternatives and wants the state of Virginia to adopt energy policies that encourage energy efficiency.
