Bill > HB2084

This bill directs the State Corporation Commission (SCC), Virginia's regulatory body for public utilities, to evaluate whether Dominion Energy and Appalachian Power (referred to as Phase I or Phase II Utilities) are applying fair and reasonable customer classifications during their regulatory proceedings between January 1, 2025, and July 1, 2027. Specifically, the SCC will review the utilities' rates, tolls, charges, and customer schedule classifications to determine if they are reasonable. The bill requires the SCC to consider whether any new or separate customer classifications are justified under their existing regulatory authority. This type of review is part of the SCC's ongoing oversight of public utility services, aiming to ensure that utility companies are not unfairly categorizing or charging different customer groups and are maintaining equitable pricing structures.
