EV Charging Help

Virginia Electric and Power Company

Virginia Electric & Power Company, operating as Dominion Energy Virginia (and Dominion Energy North Carolina in its NC footprint), serves about 2.78 million customers across Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. The utility offers a voluntary three-tier residential time-of-use rate called the Off-Peak Plan, a $125 enrollment rebate plus $40 annual incentive through EV Charger Rewards, and a 50 percent make-ready Level 2 Charging Program for commercial and multifamily sites that rises to 100 percent in disadvantaged communities.

Managed-charging programs

EV Charger Rewards

Demand response program where Dominion can adjust the charging level of a participant's Wi-Fi-connected Level 2 charger during peak demand events. Events are capped at 4 hours each, with a maximum of 15 per month and 45 per year, and participants can opt out of any individual event.

$125 enrollment incentive plus $40 per anniversary year

Dominion Energy Virginia's EV-friendly residential rate is the Off-Peak Plan, a voluntary time-of-use option for customers with a smart meter. On-peak windows are narrow: 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays from May through September, and 6 a.m. to 9 a.m. plus 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays from October through April. Weekends and holidays have no peak hours. The super off-peak window runs every night from midnight to 5 a.m., which makes overnight charging the lowest-cost option if you set your car or charger to start after midnight. Current cents-per-kWh values sit in Dominion's Schedule 1G tariff filing with the Virginia State Corporation Commission.

Dominion's residential rebate and managed-charging program are bundled together as EV Charger Rewards: $125 when you buy a qualified Wi-Fi-connected Level 2 charger and enroll, then $40 each anniversary you stay enrolled. The catch is that you have to be on a standard residential rate, not the Off-Peak Plan, so customers have to pick between rate savings and the demand response incentives. For commercial and multifamily sites the calculation is different: the Level 2 Charging Program covers half the make-ready cost upfront and customers repay the remainder on their monthly bill over 10 years, with full coverage in qualifying Environmental Justice Communities.

Virginia is a regulated, integrated-utility market, so Dominion Energy Virginia sets both rates and programs subject to State Corporation Commission approval. The North Carolina footprint, served as Dominion Energy North Carolina, is small (the northeastern counties) and does not currently get a separate utility EV rebate; NC residential customers can take the federal 30C tax credit but should not expect the $125 enrollment rebate, which is filed only in Virginia.
