Powering Virginia’s Future: What Offshore Wind Means for Virginia’s Grid and Economy

The largest offshore wind project in the nation, Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW), is 81% complete and already delivering energy to the grid as reported in Dominion Energy’s 2026 Q2 earnings call. Set to be fully operational in 2027, the project will supply 2.6 gigawatts of reliable, resilient energy to the Virginia grid positioning it as one of the largest clean energy projects in the country.
