In April, Dominion announced plans to convert three 63MW coal burning peaking plants to 50MW continuous power plants using biomass.
Enviva will supply two of these plants, located in Southampton and Hopewell.
Dominion’s application to convert the power stations is pending before the Virginia State Corporation Commission.
Enviva chairman and CEO John Keppler said Dominion’s selection of Enviva reflects our increasing position as a preferred partner and supplier to utilities seeking sustainably generated, reliable biomass supply for renewable energy generation.
