Dominion's generating facilities produce about 26,500
megawatts of efficient electric power, transmitted over 6,000 miles of transmission
lines.
Our fossil-fueled power stations primarily use coal to generate
more than 40 percent of the power provided to customers. Our nuclear stations
have attracted international attention for their innovative programs, achievements
and efficiency. We also use renewable
energy to produce electricity, including
wind, biomass fuels, and water that powers our hydroelectric generating
facilities. We
also have a number of independent stations that contribute to the generation
portfolio.
Dominion
Generation uses this variety of power stations and
combustion turbines to enhance
our system's reliability. This guards against major problems that might be
produced by economic, environmental or technical problems that could arise
in a single area.
The following table lists our generating units. Links are
provided to several of our major stations to help you learn more about them.
