Learn About Dominion Energy in OH

In a deregulated energy market where "new" can be applied to just about every company, say hello to a granddaddy – Dominion energy in OH. Its roots, through predecessor companies, go all the way back to the time when rivers, not interstates, were the primary transportation corridors and operating a dam was a much bigger deal. In fact, Dominion began in 1795 with the construction of dams along the Appomattox River for industrial use – the use of hydropower before anybody ever talked about renewable energy.

Jump ahead more than 200 years, and the current Dominion is a mature company with a lot of offspring. In 2009, it was ranked No. 157 on the Fortune 500. The company portfolio includes highlights such as:

• Approximately 11,000 miles of natural gas transmission lines. Much of that is in Ohio and five neighboring states. The company also has one of the biggest underground natural-gas storage facilities in the country. The company can transport and store large amounts of natural gas for its biggest customers, such as power plants and utilities.
• More than 28,000 megawatts of power generation capacity and more than 6,300 miles of transmission lines for the electricity.
• More than 5 million retail energy customers in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions of the U.S. You may have heard of Dominion Energy Solutions, OH residents, because it is the retail subsidiary that sells natural gas and electricity.

That makes Dominion in Ohio one of those companies that bundles energy services, from generating power and transporting electricity and natural gas to competing to sell households and businesses natural gas and electricity.
