2026 Virginia Energy Plan

Virginia's energy needs are growing, and the choices we make now will shape electricity bills, grid reliability, and our environment for years to come. The 2026 Virginia Energy Plan establishes the administration's energy priorities and sets the course for the next decade for how the Commonwealth will affordably meet demand while maintaining reliability and working towards a net-zero carbon energy economy for all sectors by no later than 2045. 

The Energy Plan will describe current and emerging energy trends, identify challenges and opportunities across the energy system, and identify strategies over a ten-year period consistent with the 2045 net-zero carbon energy economy for all sectors. The Commonwealth is required by law to develop a comprehensive strategy with input from industry professionals, engineers, scientists, advocates, state agencies, and the ratepayers who rely on our energy system every day. The plan will inform energy-related decision-making across the Commonwealth. 

We encourage you to take our public input survey, sign up for updates, and follow us as we shape Virginia's energy future together.
