Wednesday, April 21 • 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. ET

The Virginia Clean Economy Act (VCEA), enacted in 2020, initiated sweeping changes to the Commonwealth’s energy sector. Among many other things, the VCEA requires the gradual retirement of carbon-emitting electric generating units, creates a mandatory renewable portfolio standard, and requires the construction of thousands of megawatts of solar, wind and energy storage assets. Like most states, Virginia extensively regulates the siting of utility-scale energy infrastructure. This webinar will discuss the following topics to help developers navigate the pertinent regulatory requirements:

  • Relevant Provisions of the VCEA
  • Virginia Department of Environmental Quality Permits-by-Rule
  • Virginia State Corporation Commission Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity
  • Virginia State Corporation Commission Energy Storage Permitting
  • Electric Transmission Siting
  • The Virginia Environmental Justice Act and Energy Infrastructure Siting
