Dominion Energy Virginia (DEV) is soliciting proposals for up to 1.2 GW of new solar and onshore wind development assets, as well as approximately 125 MW of energy storage. Dominion is changing things up from past annual RFPs. The company will now accept acquisition proposals on a continuous basis throughout the year for more flexibility and better transparency.
