SCC approves solar facility at Naval Air Station Oceana

Published March 30, 2017 by Jessica Sabbath

The State Corporation Commission has approved an application by Dominion Virginia Power (Dominion) to build and operate a 17.6-megawatt solar electric generating facility on the Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia Beach.

The solar facility will be built on 93 acres of federal property, which is currently used for farming. The output of the facility will be sold to Virginia state government through a negotiated purchase agreement for 25 years.

The project has been structured so that Dominion recovers its costs exclusively through contracts negotiated with Virginia and not from the company’s retail electric customers.

The estimated cost of the project is $39.6 million. The Oceana Solar Facility is expected to begin generating electricity in December.
