NextEra, Dominion seek regulator sign‑off to create 10 M‑customer utility
NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy have filed applications with regulators in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and the federal FERC to merge. The combined entity would serve about 10 million customers across the Southeast, giving it scale to fund renewable, storage and grid upgrades while offering $2.25 billion in bill credits. Approval could reshape power markets in four fast‑growing states.
