Dominion asked for about 822 million dollars in new 2026 revenue plus 345 million more in 2027; the State Corporation Commission cut that to 565.7 million and 209.9 million. For a 1,000 kWh household that means about 11.24 dollars a month more from January 2026 and roughly 2.36 dollars more on top from January 2027. The same order created a new GS-5 rate class for customers over 25 MW, mostly data centers, requiring long contracts and high minimum payments so residential customers do not fund their grid buildout.

Other Dominion Energy Virginia matters
This is a structural change in who pays for data center grid buildout rather than a simple rate increase. The new GS-5 class and the direct-connect tariff are both designed to keep those costs on the data centers.
