How does the current IRP account for physical limitations in available infrastructure?

The IRP model includes realistic build limits for new generation to meet demand, which is not location-specific.  The build limits are based on Dominion Energy’s extensive experience developing infrastructure projects within its service territory.  The IRP model also takes into account the current transmission import capabilities of the Dominion Zone and future transmission projects. 

Other Stakeholder Questions and Answers

• What is the difference between the Company load forecast and PJM’s load forecast? What is the MW amount difference per year?
• What information can Dominion Energy provide a locality on energy and land use ahead of time? Can they share more information about the capacity of existing lines?
