These units will be retired after they meet their capacity obligations to PJM in 2023.As a result, Virginia Power recorded a charge of $754 million ($561 million after-tax) in the first quarter of 2020, primarily included in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income. This charge is considered a component of Virginia Power’s base rates deemed recovered under the GTSA, subject to review as discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Virginia Power’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.In the second quarter of 2020, Virginia Power recorded charges of $30 million ($22 million after-tax) associated with dismantling certain of these electric generation facilities, recorded in impairment of assets and other charges in its Consolidated Statements of Income.In the first quarter of 2020, Virginia Power updated depreciation rates for its nuclear plants to reflect lower depreciation rates as a result of the expected approval of license extensions from the NRC. This adjustment resulted in a decrease in depreciation expense of $8 million ($6 million after-tax) and $16 million ($12 million after-tax) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Statements of Income and a $0.01 increase in Dominion Energy’s EPS, for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. This revision is expected to decrease annual depreciation expense by approximately $31 million ($23 million after-tax) and increase Dominion Energy’s EPS by $0.03 for the year ended December 31, 2020.In the second quarter of 2020, DESC completed a nuclear decommissioning cost study related to Summer. As a result of the study, Dominion Energy recorded an $89 million increase to its nuclear decommissioning ARO, with a corresponding increase to property, plant and equipment.Dominionin the second quarter of 2020 Eastern Energy and Dominion Energy Gas recorded a charge of $482 million ($359 million after-tax) in impairment of assets and other charges (benefits) in theirits Consolidated Statements of Income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 associated with the probable abandonment of a significant portion of the project as well as the establishment of a $75 million ARO. In the third quarter of 2020, Eastern Energy recorded an additional charge of $10 million ($7 million after-tax) associated with the probable abandonment of a significant portion of the project and a $29 million ($20 million after-tax) benefit from a revision to the previously established ARO, both of which were recorded in impairment of assets and other charges (benefits) in Eastern Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income. As DETI evaluates its future use, approximately $40 million remains within property, plant and equipment for a potential modified project.Credit RiskGoodwillCredit risk is the riskEastern Energy has evaluated goodwill annually as of financial loss if counterparties fail to perform their contractual obligations. In order to minimize overall credit risk, credit policies are maintained, including the evaluation of counterparty financial condition, collateral requirementsApril 1 and the use of standardized agreements that facilitate the netting of cash flows associated with a single counterparty. In addition, counterparties may make available collateral, including letters of creditwhenever an event occurs or cash held as margin deposits, as a result of exceeding agreed-upon credit limits, or may be required to prepay the transaction.Effective January 2020, expected credit losses are estimated and recorded based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of financial assets held at amortized cost as well as expected credit losses on commitments with respect to financial guarantees.InvestmentsDebt and Equity Securities with Readily Determinable Fair ValueDominion Energy accounts for and classifies investments in debt securities as trading or available-for-sale securities. Virginia Power classifies investments in debt securities as available-for-sale securities.• Debt securities classified as trading securities include securities held by Dominion Energy in rabbi trusts associated with certain deferred compensation plans. These securities are reported in other investmentscircumstances change in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with net realized and unrealized gains and losses included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.• Debt securities classified as available-for-sale securities include all other debt securities, primarily comprised of securities held in the nuclear decommissioning trusts. These investments are reported at fair value in nuclear decommissioning trust funds in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses (including any credit-related impairments) on investments held in Virginia Power’s nuclear decommissioning trusts are deferred to a regulatory asset or liability as applicable for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation. For all other available-for-sale debt securities, including those held in Dominion Energy’s merchant generation nuclear decommissioning trusts, net realized gains and losses (including any credit-related impairments) are included in other income and unrealized gains and losses are reported as a component of AOCI, after-tax.In determining realized gains and losses for debt securities, the cost basis of the security is based on the specific identification method.Equity securities with readily determinable fair values include securities held by Dominion Energy in rabbi trusts associated with certain deferred compensation plans and securities held by Dominion Energy and Virginia Power in the nuclear decommissioningtrusts. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record all equity securities with a readily determinable fair value, or for which they are permitted to estimate fair value using NAV (or its equivalent), at fair value in nuclear decommissioning trust funds and other investments in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. However, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power may elect a measurement alternative for equity securities without a readily determinable fair value. Under the measurement alternative, equity securities are reported at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power qualitatively assess equity securities reported using the measurement alternative to determine whether an investment is impaired on an ongoing basis. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities held in Virginia Power’s nuclear decommissioning trusts are deferred to a regulatory asset or liability, as applicable, for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation. For all other equity securities, including those held in Dominion Energy’s merchant generation nuclear decommissioning trusts and rabbi trusts, net realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.Equity Securities without Readily Determinable Fair ValuesThe Companies account for illiquid and privately held securities without readily determinable fair values under either the equity method or cost method. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values include:• Equity method investments when the Companies have the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ investments are included in investments in equity method affiliates in their Consolidated Balance Sheets. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas record equity method adjustments in other income and earnings from equity method investees, respectively, in their Consolidated Statements of Income, including their proportionate share of investee income or loss, gains or losses resulting from investee capital transactions, amortization of certain differences between the carrying value and the equity in the net assets of the investee at the date of investment and other adjustments required by the equity method.• Cost method investments when Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s investments are included in other investments and nuclear decommissioning trust funds. Cost method investments are reported at cost less impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer.Other-Than-Temporary ImpairmentThe Companies periodically review their equity method investments to determine whether a decline in fair value should be considered other-than-temporary. If a decline ininterim that would more-likely-than-not reduce the fair value of any equity method investment is determined to be other-than-temporary, the investment is written down toa reporting unit below its fair value at the end of the reporting period.Credit ImpairmentEffective Januarycarrying amount. Eastern Energy evaluated goodwill on April 1, 2020 Dominion Energy and Virginia Power periodically review their available-for-sale debt securities to determine whether a decline in fair value should be considered credit related. If a decline in the fair value of any available-for-sale debt security is determined to be credit related, the credit-related impairment is recorded to an allowance included in nuclear decommissioning trust funds in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at the end of the reporting period, with such allowance for credit losses subject to reversal in subsequent evaluations.Using information obtained from their nuclear decommissioning trust fixed-income investment managers, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record in earnings, or defer as applicable for certain jurisdictions subject to cost-based regulation, any unrealized loss for a debt security when the manager intends to sell the debt security or it is more-likely-than-not that the manager will haveevaluate goodwill annually on October 31, effective October 31, 2020, to sell the debt security before recovery of its fair value up to its cost basis. If that is not the case, but the debt security is deemed to have experienced a credit loss, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power record the credit loss in earningsalign with the remaining non-credit portion of the unrealized loss recorded in AOCI. Credit losses are evaluated primarily by considering the credit ratings of the issuer, prior instances of non-performance by the issuer and other factors.BHE’s policy.SCANAIn January 2019, DominionEastern Energy issued 95.6 million shares of Dominion Energy common stock, valued at $6.8 billion, representing 0.6690 of a share of Dominion Energy common stock for each share of SCANA common stock, in connection with the completion of the SCANA Combination.

See Note 98 in this report for further information about the Companies’Eastern Energy’s derivatives and hedge accounting activities.The Companies enter into certain physical and financial forwards, futures, options and swaps, which All of Eastern Energy’s derivatives are considered Level 3 as they have one or more inputs that are not observable and are significant to the valuation. The discounted cash flow method is used to value Level 3 physical and financial forwards, futures and swaps contracts. An option model is used to value Level 3 physical options. The discounted cash flow model for forwards, futures and swaps calculates mark-to-market valuations based on forward market prices, original transaction prices, volumes, risk-free rate of return and credit spreads. The option model calculates mark-to-market valuations using variations of the Black-Scholes option model. The inputs into the models are the forward market prices, implied price volatilities, risk-free rate of return, the option expiration dates, the option strike prices, the original sales prices and volumes. For Level 3 fair value measurements, certain forward market prices and implied price volatilities are considered unobservable.The following table presents Dominion Energy’s quantitative information about Level 3 fair value measurements at June 30, 2020.

The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., anticipated sales) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of prices contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in market prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
In connection with the agreement Dominion Energy entered in July 2020 for the disposition of substantially all of its gas transmission and storage operations, certain cash flow hedges of debt-related items will become probable of not occurring. See Note 3 for further information.
Fair Value Hedges

There were 0 derivative instruments designated in fair value hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. Gains and losses on derivatives in fair value hedge relationships were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
The following table presents the amounts recorded on the balance sheet related to cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges:

AOCI
The following table presents selected information related to gains (losses) on cash flow hedges included in AOCI in Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at June 30, 2020:
|
| AOCI After-Tax |
|
| Amounts Expected to be Reclassified to Earnings During the Next 12 Months After-Tax |

The amounts that will be reclassified from AOCI to earnings will generally be offset by the recognition of the hedged transactions (e.g., interest payments) in earnings, thereby achieving the realization of interest rates contemplated by the underlying risk management strategies and will vary from the expected amounts presented above as a result of changes in interest rates.

Equity Method Investments2019.
DominionEastern Energy
Dominion Energy’s equity earnings (losses) on its investments totaled $(2.2) billion and $80recorded contributions of $4 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Dominion2019. Eastern Energy received distributions of $46$63 million and $57$60 million for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net difference between the carrying amount of Dominion Energy’s investments and its share of underlying equity in net assets was $96 million and $110 million, respectively. At June 30, 2020, these differences are comprised of $175 million of equity method goodwill that is not being amortized and a net $79 million basis difference primarily attributable to Dominion Energy’s investments in Fowler Ridge and an unfunded commitment made to Align RNG. At December 31, 2019, these differences are comprised of $159 million of equity method goodwill that is not being amortized and a net $49 million basis difference from Dominion Energy’s investments in Fowler Ridge, which is being amortized over the useful lives of the underlying assets, in Atlantic Coast Pipeline, which is being amortized over the term of its credit facility, and an unfunded commitment made to Align RNG.
Atlantic Coast Pipeline
In September 2014, Dominion Energy, along with Duke Energy and Southern, announced the formation of Atlantic Coast Pipeline for the purpose of constructing an approximately 600-mile natural gas pipeline running from West Virginia through Virginia to North Carolina. Subsidiaries and affiliates of Dominion Energy, Duke Energy and Southern had planned to be customers of the pipeline under 20-year contracts.
In March 2020, Dominion Energy completed the acquisition from Southern of its 5% membership interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline and its 100% ownership interest in Pivotal LNG, Inc., for $184 million in aggregate, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. Pivotal LNG, Inc. includes a 50% noncontrolling interest in JAX LNG. Following completion of the acquisition, Dominion Energy owns a 53% noncontrolling membership interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline with Duke Energy owning the remaining interest.
Atlantic Coast Pipeline continues to be reflected as an equity method investment as the power to direct the activities most significant to Atlantic Coast Pipeline is shared with Duke Energy. As a result, Dominion Energy has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control, over the investee.
The Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project had been the subject of challenges in federal courts including, among others, challenges of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project’s biological opinion and incidental take statement, permits providing right of way crossings of certain federal lands, the Army Corps of Engineers 404 permit, the air permit for a compressor station at Buckingham, Virginia, and the FERC order approving the CPCN. Each of these challenges alleged non-compliance on the part of federal and state permitting authorities and adverse ecological consequences if the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project was permitted to proceed. Since December 2018, notable developments in these challenges included a stay in December 2018 issued by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit and the same court’s July 2019 vacatur of the biological opinion and incidental take statement (which stay and subsequent vacatur halted most project construction activity), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit decisions vacating the permits to cross certain federal forests and the air permit for a compressor station at Buckingham, Virginia, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit’s remand to the Army Corps of Engineers of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s Huntington District 404 verification and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit’s remand to the National Park Service of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s Blue Ridge Parkway right-of-way. In June 2019, the Solicitor General of the U.S. and Atlantic Coast Pipeline filed petitions requesting that the Supreme Court of the U.S. hear the case regarding the Appalachian Trail crossing and in June 2020, the Supreme Court of the U.S. ruled in favor of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline, reversing the lower court’s decision and remanding the case back to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
The project also faced new and serious challenges from uncertainty related to NWP 12, specifically, from the decision of the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana in April 2020 vacating an NWP 12 issued by the Army Corps of Engineers, including among other things gas pipelines, followed by a U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruling in May 2020 denying a stay of that decision. In July 2020, the Supreme Court of the U.S. issued an order allowing other new oil and gas pipeline projects to use the NWP 12 process pending appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit; however, that did not decrease the uncertainty associated with an eventual ruling. The Montana district court decision was viewed as likely to prompt similar challenges in other federal circuit courts related to permits issued under NWP 12, including for the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project.
In July 2020, as a result of the continued permitting delays, growing legal uncertainties and the need to incur significant capital expenditures to maintain project timing before such uncertainties could be resolved, Dominion Energy and Duke Energy announced the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project.
As a result of the determination of the probable abandonment of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project in June 2020, Atlantic Coast Pipeline has provided to Dominion Energy that it recorded net losses of $4.4 billion and $4.3 billion for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, compared to net income of $61 million and $114 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and that it did not record revenue for any period. As a result, Dominion Energy has recorded within earnings
(loss) from equity method investees a loss of $2.3 billion for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to income of $29 million and $53 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy has recorded a liability of $1.0 billion within other current liabilities in its Consolidated Balance Sheet, as a result of its share of equity losses exceeding its investment which reflects Dominion Energy’s obligations on behalf of Atlantic Coast Pipeline related to its credit facility and AROs.
In October 2017, Dominion Energy entered into a guarantee agreement to support a portion of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s obligation under a $3.4 billion revolving credit facility with a stated maturity date of October 2021. As of June 30, 2020, Atlantic Coast Pipeline had borrowed $1.8 billion against the revolving credit facility. In July 2020, the capacity of the revolving credit facility was reduced from $3.4 billion to $1.9 billion. Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets include a liability of $14 million associated with this guarantee agreement at December 31, 2019. The $1.0 billion liability at June 30, 2020 discussed above includes a $48 million adjustment related to this guarantee agreement that is reflected within equity as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle upon adoption of the new credit loss standard in January 2020.
Dominion Energy recorded contributions of $13 million and $33 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $29 million and $128 million during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, to Atlantic Coast Pipeline. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy had $5 million and $7 million, respectively, of contributions payable to Atlantic Coast Pipeline included within other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Dominion Energy expects to incur additional losses from Atlantic Coast Pipeline as it completes wind-down activities. While Dominion Energy is unable to precisely estimate the amounts to be incurred by Atlantic Coast Pipeline, the portion of such amounts attributable to Dominion Energy is not expected to be material to Dominion Energy’s results of operations, financial position or statement of cash flows. In connection with the sale of Dominion Energy’s gas transmission and storage operations to BHE discussed in Note 3, Dominion Energy expects to reflect the results of its equity method investment in Atlantic Coast Pipeline as discontinued operations effective in the third quarter of 2020.
Blue Racer
In the first quarter of 2019, Dominion Energy received $151 million of additional consideration, including applicable interest, in connection with the sale of Dominion Energy’s 50% limited partnership interest in Blue Racer in December 2018, as discussed in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Fowler Ridge
In July 2020, Dominion Energy entered into an agreement to sell its 50% noncontrolling partnership interest in Fowler Ridge to BP and to terminate a long-term power, capacity and renewable energy credit contract for a net payment by Dominion Energy of $150 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2020, subject to approval by FERC. Dominion Energy expects to record a loss of approximately $220 million ($170 million after-tax), consisting of a loss on the contract termination partially offset by a gain on the sale of the partnership interest.
Dominion Energy Gas
Dominion Energy Gas’ equity earnings totaled $23 million and $22 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Dominion Energy Gas received distributions of $25 million and $30 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the carrying amount of Dominion Energy Gas’Eastern Energy’s investment of $310$279 million and $312 million, respectively, exceeded its share of underlying equity in net assets by $146 million. The difference reflects equity method goodwill and is not being amortized.
Atlantic Coast Pipeline
DETI provides services to Atlantic Coast Pipeline which totaled $17 million and $26 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $37 million and $57 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, included in operating revenue in Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ Consolidated Statements of Income. Amounts receivable related to these services were $7 million at both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, composed entirely of accrued unbilled revenue, included in other receivables in Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ Consolidated Balance Sheets.22

At JuneSeptember 30, 2020, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’Eastern Energy’s regulatory assets include $4.8 billion, $3.4 billion and $44$45 million, respectively, on which they doit does not expect to earn a return during the applicable recovery period. With the exception of certain items discussed above, the majority of these expenditures are expected to be recovered within the next two years.
Note 13.11. Regulatory Matters
Regulatory Matters Involving Potential Loss Contingencies
As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies areEastern Energy is involved in various regulatory matters. Certain regulatory matters may ultimately result in a loss; however, as such matters are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending reviews or orders, and/or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, it is not possible for the CompaniesEastern Energy to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the CompaniesEastern Energy cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the regulatory process such that the Companies areEastern Energy is able to estimate a range of possible loss. For regulatory matters that the Companies areEastern Energy is able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. Any estimated range is based on currently available information, involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties and may not represent the Companies’Eastern Energy’s maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such regulatory matters will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current matters not specifically reported below,
management does not anticipate that the outcome from such matters would have a material effect on the Companies’Eastern Energy’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
FERC – Gas23
DETI
In July 2017, FERC audit staff communicated to DETI that it had substantially completed an audit of DETI’s compliance with the accounting and reporting requirements of FERC’s Uniform System of Accounts and provided a description of matters and preliminary recommendations. In November 2017, the FERC audit staff issued its audit report which could have the potential to result in adjustments which could be material to Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’Eastern Energy’s results of operations. In December 2017, DETI provided its response to the audit report. DETI reached resolution of certain matters with FERC in the fourth quarter of 2018. Pending final resolution of the audit process and a determination by FERC, management is unable to estimate the potential impact of the remaining finding and no amounts have been recognized.
2017 Tax Reform Act
Other than the items discussed below, which are pending or have been resolved during the period, there have been no changes to the 2017 Tax Reform Act matters discussed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
In March 2019, Questar Gas filed with the Utah and Wyoming Commissions as to the impact of excess deferred income taxes resulting from the 2017 Tax Reform Act. Questar Gas proposed to return the 2018 amortization of excess deferred income taxes to customers and to incorporate the remaining excess deferred income tax impact in its next general rate cases in each jurisdiction. In March 2020, the Utah Commission issued an order approving Questar Gas’ proposal to refund the January 2019 through February 2020 amortization of excess deferred income taxes over 12 months beginning in June 2020. In April 2020, at the request of the Wyoming Commission, this matter was considered in conjunction with the base rate case that was filed in November 2019. In June 2020, the Wyoming Commission approved a proposal to share the benefits of deferred income taxes for the period January 2018 through August 2020 with customers over a one-year period beginning in September 2020. In addition, new base rates that go into effect in September 2020 will include the prospective impacts of sharing excess deferred income taxes with customers.
In October 2018, the Ohio Commission issued an order requiring rate-regulated utilities to file an application reflecting the impact of the 2017 Tax Reform Act on current rates by January 1, 2019. In December 2018, East Ohio filed its application proposing an approach to establishing rates and charges by and through which to return tax reform benefits to its customers. In December 2019, the Ohio Commission issued an order approving customer credits of approximately $600 million that will be shared with customers primarily over the remaining book life of the property to which the excess deferred income taxes relate. In addition, East Ohio will reduce rates approximately $19 million per year to account for the 2017 Tax Reform Act’s impact on its equity return component of rates charged to customers. A tax savings credit, which passes through the reduction in the federal income tax rate under the 2017 Tax Reform Act to customers in accordance with the settlement agreement approved by the Ohio Commission, became effective with the first billing cycle in April 2020.
Other Regulatory Matters
Other than the following matters, there have been no significant developments regarding the pending regulatory matters disclosed in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’Eastern Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Virginia Regulation
Virginia 2020 Legislation
In April 2020, the Governor of Virginia signed into law the VCEA, which along with related legislation forms a comprehensive framework affecting Virginia Power’s operations. The VCEA replaces Virginia’s voluntary renewable energy portfolio standard for Virginia Power with a mandatory program setting annual renewable energy portfolio standard requirements based on the percentage of total electric energy sold by Virginia Power, excluding existing nuclear generation and certain new carbon-free resources, reaching 100% by the end of 2045. The VCEA includes related requirements concerning deployment of wind, solar and energy storage resources, as well as provides for certain measures to increase net-metering, including an allocation for low-income customers, incentivizes energy efficiency programs and directs Virginia to participate in a carbon trading program. While the legislation affects several portions of Virginia Power’s operations, key provisions of the GTSA remain in effect, including the triennial review structure
and timing, the use of the customer credit reinvestment offset and the $50 million cap on revenue reductions in the first triennial review proceeding. Key provisions of the VCEA and related legislation passed include the following:
|

Virginia Power expects to incur significant costs, including capital expenditures, to comply with the legislative requirements discussed above. The legislation allows for cost recovery under the existing or modified regulatory framework through rate adjustment clauses, rates for generation and distribution services or Virginia Power’s fuel factor, as approved by the Virginia Commission. Costs allocated to the North Carolina jurisdiction will be recovered, subject to approval by the North Carolina Commission, in accordance with the existing regulatory framework.
In May 2020 and July 2020, Virginia Power entered into and closed on separate agreements to acquire Grassfield Solar, Norge Solar and Sycamore Solar. The projects are expected to cost approximately $170 million in aggregate once constructed, including the initial acquisition cost. The facilities are expected to generate 82 MW combined and be placed into service by the end of 2022. Virginia Power expects to file with the Virginia Commission for CPCNs to construct and operate these projects as well as a rider to recover the costs associated with the recovery of certain renewable generation facilities in Virginia by the end of 2020.
Grid Transformation and Security Act of 2018
In July 2018, Virginia Power filed a petition with the Virginia Commission for approval of the first three years of its ten-year plan for electric distribution grid transformation projects as authorized by the GTSA. During the first three years of the plan, Virginia Power proposed to focus on the following seven foundational components of the overall grid transformation plan: (i) smart meters; (ii)
customer information platform; (iii) reliability and resilience; (iv) telecommunications infrastructure; (v) cyber and physical security; (vi) predictive analytics; and (vii) emerging technology. The total estimated capital investment during 2019-2021 was $816 million and the proposed operations and maintenance expenses were $102 million. In January 2019, the Virginia Commission issued its final order approving capital spending for the first three years of the plan totaling $68 million on cyber and physical security and related telecommunications infrastructure (Phase IA). The Virginia Commission declined to approve the remainder of the proposed components for the first three years of the plan, the proposed spending for which was not found reasonable and prudent based on the record in the proceeding.
In September 2019, Virginia Power filed a revised plan which includes six components: (i) smart meters; (ii) customer information platform; (iii) grid improvement projects; (iv) telecommunications infrastructure; (v) cyber security; and (vi) a smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program (Phase IB). For Phase IB, the total proposed capital investment during 2019 – 2021 was $503 million and the proposed operations and maintenance investment was $78 million. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission issued an order approving $212 million of costs related to a new customer information platform, targeted grid hardening and corridor improvements, an electric vehicle Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program, cyber security, stakeholder engagement and customer education and denied the costs associated with AMI, self-healing grid and certain other grid hardening projects alleging that Virginia Power did not prove the reasonableness and prudency of these costs. In April 2020, Virginia Power filed a petition for reconsideration of the Virginia Commission’s order and requested clarification of certain matters, including the Smart Charging Infrastructure Pilot Program. Additionally, Virginia Power requested clarification of certain matters relating to an AMI time-of-use rate and the smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program. Subsequently, in April 2020, the Virginia Commission denied in full Virginia Power’s petition for reconsideration; however, it stated that its March 2020 order contained all necessary approvals for the smart charging electric vehicle infrastructure pilot program. Virginia Power intends to file a revised plan that will address the elements needed for a comprehensive plan, as outlined by the Virginia Commission in its order.
Solar Facility Projects
In July 2019, Virginia Power filed an application with the Virginia Commission for a CPCN to construct Sadler Solar, which is estimated to cost approximately $146 million, excluding financing costs. Sadler Solar is expected to commence commercial operations, subject to regulatory approvals associated with the project, in the fourth quarter of 2020. Virginia Power also applied for approval of Rider US-4 associated with this project with a proposed $9 million total revenue requirement for the rate year beginning June 1, 2020. In January 2020, the Virginia Commission issued a final order granting the CPCN to construct Sadler Solar, subject to a 20- year performance guarantee of the facility at a 22% solar capacity factor when normalized for force majeure events. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission approved a $7 million total annual revenue requirement.
Virginia Fuel Expenses
In February 2020, Virginia Power filed its annual fuel factor with the Virginia Commission to recover an estimated $1.2 billion in Virginia jurisdictional projected fuel expenses for the rate year beginning July 1, 2020 and a projected over-recovery of approximately $81 million for the prior year balance as of June 30, 2020. Virginia Power requested that the new fuel factor rate be implemented on an interim basis two months early, beginning on May 1, 2020. In March 2020, the Virginia Commission approved the interim rates. Virginia Power’s proposed fuel rate represents a fuel revenue decrease of approximately $393 million when applied to projected kilowatt-hour sales for the rate year beginning May 1, 2020. In June 2020, the Virginia Commission approved a revised fuel rate based on an updated projected over-recovery of $103 million for the prior year balance as of June 30, 2020.

Electric Transmission Projects
In December 2019, Virginia Power filed an application with the Virginia Commission for a CPCN to construct a new Evergreen Mills switching station and add approximately one mile of overhead 230 kV double circuit transmission lines from both the existing Brambleton-Yardley Ridge line and Brambleton-Poland Road line in Loudoun County, Virginia, estimated to cost approximately $30 million. In May 2020, the Virginia Commission issued an order approving in part and denying in part the petition. The Virginia Commission approved Virginia Power’s request to construct the new Evergreen Mills switching station and the new 230 kV double circuit transmission line from the existing Brambleton-Yardley Ridge line with a total estimated cost of $25 million.

North Carolina Regulation
North Carolina Base Rate Case
In March 2019, Virginia Power filed its base rate case and schedules with the North Carolina Commission. Virginia Power proposed a non-fuel, base rate increase of $27 million effective November 1, 2019 on an interim basis subject to refund, with any permanent rates ordered by the North Carolina Commission effective January 1, 2020. The base rate increase was proposed to recover the significant investments in generation, transmission and distribution infrastructure for the benefit of North Carolina customers. Virginia Power presented an earned return of 7.52% based upon a fully-adjusted test period, compared to its authorized 9.90% return, and proposed a 10.75% ROE. In September 2019, Virginia Power revised its filing to reduce the non-fuel base rate increase to $24 million. In January 2020, the North Carolina Commission approved a 9.75% ROE and disallowed certain costs associated with coal ash remediation at Chesterfield power station. In February 2020, the North Carolina Commission issued its final order relating to base rates. In July 2020, Virginia Power filed a notice of appeal and exceptions to the Supreme Court of North Carolina, arguing that the North Carolina Commission committed reversible error on certain issues relating to the ratemaking treatment of certain coal ash remediation costs. This matter is pending.
Pipeline Integrity and Safety Program
The North Carolina Commission has authorized PSNC to use a tracker mechanism to recover the incurred capital investment and associated costs of complying with federal standards for pipeline integrity and safety requirements that are not in current base rates. In February 2020, the North Carolina Commission approved PSNC’s request to increase the integrity management annual revenue requirement to $28 million, an increase of $7 million over its previous filing, effective March 2020.
South Carolina Regulation
South Carolina Electric Base Rate Case
Pursuant to the SCANA Merger Approval Order, DESC will not file an application for a general rate case with the South Carolina Commission with a requested effective date for new rates earlier than January 2021. In April 2020, the South Carolina Commission issued an order vacating the portion of the SCANA Merger Approval Order requiring that new retail electric rates be implemented by January 1, 2021. In July 2020, DESC filed a notice of intent with the South Carolina Commission to file for an increase to base rates for retail electric service no earlier than 30 days following the notice. The net lost revenue recovery portion of the DSM rider would be adjusted lower simultaneously with any approved retail electric base rate increases.
DSM Programs
DESC has approval for a DSM rider through which it recovers expenditures related to its DSM programs.

Note 14. Leases
Other than the items discussed below, there have been no significant changes regarding the Companies’ leases as described in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include $53 million and $85 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $53 million and $82 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, of rental revenue included in operating revenue.

Corporate Office Leasing Arrangement
In December 2019, Dominion Energy signed an agreement with a lessor, as amended in May 2020, to construct and lease a new corporate office property in Richmond, Virginia. The lessor is providing equity and has obtained financing commitments from debt investors, totaling $465 million, to fund the estimated project costs. If Dominion Energy ultimately proceeds with the project through completion, the project is expected to be completed by September 2024. Dominion Energy has been appointed to act as the construction agent for the lessor, during which time Dominion Energy will request cash draws from the lessor and debt investors to fund all project costs. If the project is terminated under certain events, Dominion Energy could be required to pay up to 100% of the then funded amount.
The lease term will commence once construction is substantially complete and the facility is able to be occupied and end in December 2027. At the end of the initial lease term, Dominion Energy can (i) extend the term of the lease for an additional five years, subject to the approval of the participants, at current market terms, (ii) purchase the property for an amount equal to the project costs or, (iii) subject to certain terms and conditions, sell the property on behalf of the lessor to a third party using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the highest cash purchase price for the property. If the project is sold and the proceeds from the sale are insufficient to repay the investors for the project costs, Dominion Energy may be required to make a payment to the lessor, up to 83% of project costs, for the difference between the project costs and sale proceeds. Dominion Energy is not considered the owner during construction for financial accounting purposes and, therefore, will not reflect the construction activity in its consolidated financial statements. Dominion Energy expects to recognize a right-of-use asset and a corresponding finance lease liability at the commencement of the lease term. Dominion Energy will be considered the owner of the leased property for tax purposes, and as a result, will be entitled to tax deductions for depreciation and interest expense.

Each 2019 Series A Corporate Unit consists of a stock purchase contract and a 1/10, or 10%, undivided beneficial ownership interest in one share of Series A Preferred Stock. Beginning in June 2022, the Series A Preferred Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into Dominion Energy common stock under a formula based upon the average closing price of Dominion Energy common stock prior to the conversion date. The Series A Preferred Stock is redeemable in cash by Dominion Energy beginning September 2022 at the liquidation preference. Settlement of any conversion is payable in cash, common stock or a combination thereof, at Dominion Energy’s election.
The stock purchase contracts obligate the holders to purchase shares of Dominion Energy common stock in June 2022. The purchase price to be paid under the stock purchase contracts is $100 per Corporate Unit and the number of shares to be purchased will be determined under a formula based upon the average closing price of Dominion Energy common stock near the settlement date. The Series A Preferred Stock was pledged upon issuance as collateral to secure the purchase of common stock under the related stock purchase contracts.
Dominion Energy pays cumulative dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock and quarterly contract adjustment payments on the stock purchase contracts, at the rates described below. Dominion Energy may elect to pay such dividends and/or payments in cash, shares of Dominion Energy common stock or a combination of cash and shares of Dominion Energy common stock. Dominion Energy may defer the contract adjustment payments for one or more consecutive periods but generally not beyond the purchase contract settlement date.

In such circumstances, Dominion Energy also may not make any contract adjustment payments or other similar types of payments, subject to certain exceptions.
Dominion Energy has recorded the present value of the stock purchase contract payments as a liability offset to common stock. Stock purchase contract payments are recorded against this liability. Accretion of the stock purchase contract liability is recorded as imputed interest expense. In calculating diluted EPS, Dominion Energy applies the treasury stock method to the stock purchase contracts and the if-converted method to the Series A Preferred Stock. Under the terms of the stock purchase contracts, assuming no anti-dilution or other adjustments, the maximum number of shares of common stock Dominion Energy will issue in June 2022 is 21.8 million.

In March 2020, Dominion Energy entered into four separate sales agency agreements to effect sales under a new at-the-market program and pursuant to which it had the ability to offer from time to time up to $500 million aggregate amount of its common stock. Dominion Energy did 0t issue any shares under this new program which expired in June 2020.
Repurchase of Common Stock
In July 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $3.0 billion of Dominion Energy’s common stock and rescinded the prior two authorizations from 2005 and 2007. The repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price or volume targets and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise at the discretion of management subject to prevailing market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors.
Dividend Restrictions
At June 30, 2020, DESC’s retained earnings exceed the balance established by the Federal Power Act as a reserve on earnings attributable to hydroelectric generation plants. As a result, DESC is permitted to pay dividends without additional regulatory approval provided that such amounts would not bring the retained earnings balance below the threshold. There have been no other significant changes to dividend restrictions affecting the Companies described in Note 21, to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Note 17.14. Commitments and Contingencies
As a result of issues generated in the ordinary course of business, the Companies areEastern Energy is involved in legal proceedings before various courts and are periodically subject to governmental examinations (including by regulatory authorities), inquiries and investigations. Certain legal proceedings and governmental examinations involve demands for unspecified amounts of damages, are in an initial procedural phase, involve uncertainty as to the outcome of pending appeals or motions, or involve significant factual issues that need to be resolved, such that it is not possible for the CompaniesEastern Energy to estimate a range of possible loss. For such matters that the CompaniesEastern Energy cannot estimate, a statement to this effect is made in the description of the matter. Other matters may have progressed sufficiently through the litigation or investigative processes such that the Companies areEastern Energy is able to estimate a range of possible loss. For legal proceedings and governmental examinations that the Companies areEastern Energy is able to reasonably estimate a range of possible losses, an estimated range of possible loss is provided, in excess of the accrued liability (if any) for such matters. Any accrued liability is recorded on a gross basis with a receivable also recorded for any probable insurance recoveries. Estimated ranges of loss are inclusive of legal fees and net of any anticipated insurance recoveries. Any estimated range is based on currently available information and involves elements of judgment and significant uncertainties. Any estimated range of possible loss may not represent the Companies’Eastern Energy’s maximum possible loss exposure. The circumstances of such legal proceedings and governmental examinations will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. For current proceedings not specifically reported below, management does not anticipate that the liabilities, if any, arising from such proceedings would have a material effect on the Companies’Eastern Energy’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
Environmental Matters
The Companies areEastern Energy is subject to costs resulting from a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. These laws and regulations affect future planning and existing operations. They can result in increased capital, operating and other costs as a result of compliance, remediation, containment and monitoring obligations.
Air
CAA
The CAA, as amended, is a comprehensive program utilizing a broad range of regulatory tools to protect and preserve the nation's air quality. At a minimum, states are required to establish regulatory programs to address all requirements of the CAA. However, states
25
may choose to develop regulatory programs that are more restrictive. Many of the Companies’Eastern Energy’s facilities are subject to the CAA’s permitting and other requirements.
MATS
In February 2019, the EPA published a proposed rule to reverse its previous finding that it is appropriate and necessary to regulate hazardous air pollutant emissions from coal- and oil-fired electric generating units. In May 2020, the EPA’s final rule became effective. The final rule is consistent with the EPA’s February 2019 proposal, and determines that it is not appropriate and necessary to regulate mercury and hazardous air pollutant emissions from coal- and oil-fired electric generating units. The final rule also states that the MATS rule remains in place and the emissions standards for affected coal- and oil-fired electric generating units will not change. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are complying with the applicable requirements of the rule and do not expect any impacts to their operations.
Ozone Standards
The EPA published final non-attainment designations for the October 2015 ozone standard in June 2018. States have until August 2021 to develop plans to address the new standard. Until the states have developed implementation plans for the standard, the Companies areEastern Energy is unable to predict whether or to what extent the new rules will ultimately require additional controls. The expenditures required to implement additional controls could have a material impact on the Companies’Eastern Energy’s results of operations and cash flows.
Oil and Gas NSPS
In August 2012, the EPA issued an NSPS impacting new and modified facilities in the natural gas production and gathering sectors and made revisions to the NSPS for natural gas processing and transmission facilities. These rules establish equipment performance specifications and emissions standards for control of VOC emissions for natural gas production wells, tanks, pneumatic controllers and compressors in the upstream sector. In June 2016, the EPA issued another NSPS regulation, for the oil and natural gas sector, to regulate methane and VOC emissions from new and modified facilities in transmission and storage, gathering and boosting, production and processing facilities. All projects which commenced construction after September 2015 are required to comply with this regulation. In October 2018, the EPA published a proposed rule reconsidering and amending portions of the 2016 rule, including but not limited to, the fugitive emissions requirements at well sites and compressor stations. The amended portions of the 2016 rule
were effective immediately upon publication. UntilIn August 2020, the proposed rule regardingEPA issued two final amendments related to the reconsideration is final, Dominionof the NSPS for the oil and natural gas sector applicable to VOC and methane emissions. Together, the two amendments have the effect of rescinding the methane portion of the NSPS for all segments of the oil and natural gas sector, rescinding all NSPS for the transmission and storage segment and modifying some of the NSPS VOC requirements for facilities in the production and processing segments. The two amendments have been challenged in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit but remain in effect pending the outcome of the litigation. Eastern Energy and Dominion Energy Gas are implementing the 2016 regulation. Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas areis still evaluating whether potential impacts on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows related to this matter will be material.
ACE Rule
In July 2019, the EPA published the final rule informally referred to as the ACE Rule, as a replacement for the Clean Power Plan. The ACE Rule applies to existing coal-fired power plants. The final rule includes unit-specific performance standards based on the degree of emission reduction levels achievable from unit efficiency improvements to be determined by the permitting agency. The ACE Rule requires states to develop plans by July 2022, to implement these performance standards. These state plans must be approved by the EPA by January 2024. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.
Carbon Regulations
In August 2016, the EPA issued a draft rule proposing to reaffirm that a source’s obligation to obtain a PSDprevention of significant deterioration or Title V permit for GHGs is triggered only if such permitting requirements are first triggered by non-GHG, or conventional, pollutants that are regulated by the New Source Review program, and to set a significant emissions rate at 75,000 tons per year of CO2carbon dioxide equivalent emissions under which a source would not be required to apply BACTbest available control technology for its GHG emissions. Until the EPA ultimately takes final action on this rulemaking, the CompaniesEastern Energy cannot predict the impact to theirits results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.
In December 2018, the EPA proposed revised Standards of Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from New, Modified, and Reconstructed Stationary Sources. The proposed rule would amend the previous determination that the best system of emission reduction for newly constructed coal-fired steam generating units is no longer partial carbon capture and storage. Instead, the proposed revised best system of emission reduction for this source category is the most efficient demonstrated steam cycle (e.g., supercritical steam conditions for large units and subcritical steam conditions for small units) in combination with the best operating practices.
State Regulations
In May 2019, VDEQ issued a final rule establishing a state carbon regulation program with a 28.0 million ton initial state-wide carbon cap in 2020. The cap was to be reduced by approximately 3 percent per year through 2030, resulting in an ultimate cap of 19.6 million tons. The final rule included a provision for VDEQ to delay implementation of the rule pending authorization from the General Assembly and Governor of Virginia. In April 2020, Virginia legislation was enacted authorizing VDEQ to implement the final rule. In June 2020, the VDEQ signed the CO2 Budget Trading Program rule outlining the requirements for Virginia’s participation in RGGI starting in 2021. The regulatory framework in Virginia provides rate recovery mechanisms that are expected to substantially mitigate any such impact.
The legislation discussed above is considered related legislation to the VCEA as discussed in Note 13. The VCEA institutes a mandatory renewable portfolio standard, enhances renewable generation and energy storage development, requires the retirement of certain generation facilities, establishes energy efficiency targets, expands net metering and directs Virginia’s participation in a market-based carbon trading program through 2050.
Water
The CWA, as amended, is a comprehensive program requiring a broad range of regulatory tools including a permit program to authorize and regulate discharges to surface waters with strong enforcement mechanisms. The Companies must comply with applicable aspectsAt a minimum, states are required to establish regulatory programs to address all requirements of the CWACWA. However, states may choose to develop regulatory programs at their operating facilities.
Regulation 316(b)
In October 2014, the final regulations under Section 316(b)that are more restrictive. Many of the CWA that govern existingEastern Energy’s facilities and new units at existing facilities that employ a cooling water intake structure and that have flow levels exceeding a minimum threshold became effective. The rule establishes a national standard for impingement based on seven compliance options, but forgoes the creation of a single technology standard for entrainment. Instead, the EPA has delegated entrainment technology decisions to state regulators. State regulators are to make case-by-case entrainment technology determinations after an examination of 5 mandatory facility-specific factors, including a social cost-benefit test, and 6 optional facility-specific factors. The rule governs all electric generating stations with water withdrawals above two MGD, with a heightened entrainment analysis for those facilities over 125 MGD. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power currently have 13 and 7 facilities, respectively, that are subject to CWA permitting and other state requirements. Eastern Energy does not currently foresee the final regulations. Dominion Energy is also working with the EPA and state regulatory agencies to assess the applicability of Section 316(b) to six hydroelectric facilities, including one Virginia Power facility. Dominion Energy anticipates that it may have to install impingement control technologies at certain of these stations that have once-through cooling systems. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are currently evaluating the need or potential for entrainment controls under the final ruleexisting CWA programs as these decisions will be madehaving a material effect on a case-by-case basis after a thorough
review of detailed biological, technology, cost and benefit studies. DESC is conducting studies and implementing plans as required by the rule to determine appropriate intake structure modifications at certain facilities to ensure compliance with this rule. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.
Effluent Limitations Guidelines
In September 2015, the EPA released a final rule to revise the Effluent Limitations Guidelines for the Steam Electric Power Generating Category. The final rule establishes updated standards for wastewater discharges that apply primarily at coal and oil steam generating stations. Affected facilities are required to convert from wet to dry or closed cycle coal ash management, improve existing wastewater treatment systems and/or install new wastewater treatment technologies in order to meet the new discharge limits. In April 2017, the EPA granted 2 separate petitions for reconsideration of the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule and stayed future compliance dates in the rule. Also in April 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit granted the EPA’s request for a stay of the pending consolidated litigation challenging the rule while the EPA addresses the petitions for reconsideration. In September 2017, the EPA signed a rule to postpone the earliest compliance dates for certain waste streams regulations in the Effluent Limitations Guidelines final rule from November 2018 to November 2020; however, the latest date for compliance for these regulations remains December 2023. While the impacts of this rule could be material to Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows, the existing regulatory frameworks in South Carolina and Virginia provide rate recovery mechanisms that could substantially mitigate any such impacts for the regulated electric utilities.
flows.
Waste Management and Remediation
The operations of the Companies areEastern Energy is subject to a variety of state and federal laws and regulations governing the management and disposal of solid and hazardous waste, and release of hazardous substances associated with current and/or historical operations. The CERCLA, as amended, and similar state laws, may impose joint, several and strict liability for cleanup on potentially responsible parties who owned, operated or arranged for disposal at facilities affected by a release of hazardous substances. In addition, many states have created programs to incentivize voluntary remediation of sites where historical releases of hazardous substances are identified and property owners or responsible parties decide to initiate cleanups.
From time to time, DominionEastern Energy Virginia Power or Dominion Energy Gas may be identified as a potentially responsible party in connection with the alleged release of hazardous substances or wastes at a site. Under applicable federal and state laws, the CompaniesEastern Energy could be responsible for costs associated with the investigation or remediation of impacted sites, or subject to contribution claims by other responsible parties for their costs incurred at such sites. The CompaniesEastern Energy also may identify, evaluate and remediate other potentially impacted sites under voluntary state programs. Remediation costs may be subject to reimbursement under the Companies’Eastern Energy’s insurance policies, rate recovery mechanisms, or both. Except as described below, the Companies doEastern Energy does not believe these matters will have a material effect on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

Other Legal Matters
Dominion Energy has determined that it is associated with former manufactured gas plant sites, including certain sites associated with Virginia Power. At 11 sites associated with Dominion Energy, including certain sites acquired in the SCANA Combination, remediation work has been substantially completed under federal or state oversight. Where required, the sites are following state-approved groundwater monitoring programs. Dominion Energy has proposed or expects to propose remediation plans associated with 3 sites, including 1 at Virginia Power, and expects to conduct remediation activities primarily by the end of 2021. At both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power have $34 million and $16 million, respectively, of reserves recorded. In addition, for 1 site associated with Dominion Energy, an updated work plan submitted to SCDHEC in September 2018, would increase costs by approximately $11 million if approved by federal and state agencies. DominionEastern Energy is associated with 13 additional sites, including 2 associated with Virginia Power, which are not under investigation by any state or federal environmental agency nor the subject of any current or proposed plans to perform remediation activities. Due to the uncertainty surrounding such sites, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts.
Other Legal Matters
The Companies are defendantsa defendant in a number of lawsuits and claims involving unrelated incidents of property damage and personal injury. Due to the uncertainty surrounding these matters, the Companies areEastern Energy is unable to make an estimate of the potential financial statement impacts; however, they could have a material impact on results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows.

SCANA Legal Proceedings
The following describes certain legal proceedings involving Dominion Energy, SCANA or DESC relating to events occurring before closing of the SCANA Combination. No reference to, or disclosure of, any proceeding, item or matter described below shall be construed as an admission or indication that such proceeding, item or matter is material. For certain of these matters, and unless otherwise noted therein, Dominion Energy is unable to estimate a reasonable range of possible loss and the related financial statement impacts, but for any such matter there could be a material impact to its results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows. For the matters for which Dominion Energy is able to reasonably estimate a probable loss, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at JuneAt September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019 include reserves of $538 million and $696 million, respectively, and insurance
receivables of $8 million and $111 million, respectively, included within other receivables. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include charges of $25 million ($25 million after-tax) included within other income (expense). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Statements of Income include charges of $100 million ($75 million after-tax) and $278 million ($208 million after-tax), respectively, included within impairment of assets and other charges.
Ratepayer Class Actions
In May 2018, a consolidated complaint against DESC, SCANA and the State of South Carolina was filed in the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County, South Carolina (the DESC Ratepayer Case). In September 2018, the court certified this case as a class action. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that DESC was negligent and unjustly enriched, breached alleged fiduciary and contractual duties and committed fraud and misrepresentation in failing to properly manage the NND Project, and that DESC committed unfair trade practices and violated state anti-trust laws. The plaintiffs sought a declaratory judgment that DESC may not charge its customers for any past or continuing costs of the NND Project, sought to have SCANA and DESC’s assets frozen and all monies recovered from Toshiba Corporation and other sources be placed in a constructive trust for the benefit of ratepayers and sought specific performance of the alleged implied contract to construct the NND Project.
In December 2018, the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County entered an order granting preliminary approval of a class action settlement and a stay of pre-trial proceedings in the DESC Ratepayer Case. The settlement agreement, contingent upon the closing of the SCANA Combination, provided that SCANA and DESC would establish an escrow account and proceeds from the escrow account would be distributed to the class members, after payment of certain taxes, attorneys' fees and other expenses and administrative costs. The escrow account would include (1) up to $2.0 billion, net of a credit of up to $2.0 billion in future electric bill relief, which would inure to the benefit of the escrow account in favor of class members over a period of time established by the South Carolina Commission in its order related to matters before the South Carolina Commission related to the NND Project, (2) a cash payment of $115 million and (3) the transfer of certain DESC-owned real estate or sales proceeds from the sale of such properties, which counsel for the DESC Ratepayer Class estimate to have an aggregate value between $60 million and $85 million. At the closing of the SCANA Combination, SCANA and DESC funded the cash payment portion of the escrow account. The court held a fairness hearing on the settlement in May 2019. In June 2019, the court entered an order granting final approval of the settlement, which order became effective July 2019. In July 2019, DESC transferred $117 million representing the cash payment, plus accrued interest, to the plaintiffs. In addition, property, plant and equipment with a net recorded value of $54 million is in the process of being transferred to the plaintiffs in coordination with the court-appointed real estate trustee to satisfy the settlement agreement, of which $26 million had been transferred as of June 30, 2020.
In September 2017, a purported class action was filed by Santee Cooper ratepayers against Santee Cooper, DESC, Palmetto Electric Cooperative, Inc. and Central Electric Power Cooperative, Inc. in the State Court of Common Pleas in Hampton County, South Carolina (the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case). The allegations are substantially similar to those in the DESC Ratepayer Case. The plaintiffs seek a declaratory judgment that the defendants may not charge the purported class for reimbursement for past or future costs of the NND Project. In March 2018, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint including as additional named defendants, including certain then current and former directors of Santee Cooper and SCANA. In June 2018, Santee Cooper filed a Notice of Petition for Original Jurisdiction with the Supreme Court of South Carolina. In December 2018, Santee Cooper filed its answer to the plaintiffs' fourth amended complaint and filed cross claims against DESC, which was denied. In October 2019, Santee Cooper voluntarily consented to stay its cross claims against DESC pending the outcome of the trial of the underlying case. In November 2019, DESC removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. In December 2019, the plaintiffs and Santee Cooper filed a motion to remand the case to state court. In January 2020, the case was remanded to state court. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement relating to this matter as well as the Luquire Case and the Glibowski Case described below. The settlement agreement provides that Dominion Energy and Santee Cooper will establish a fund for the benefit of class members in the amount of $520 million, of which Dominion Energy’s portion is $320 million of shares of Dominion Energy common stock. Also in March 2020, the court granted preliminary approval for the settlement agreement. In July 2020, the court issued a final approval of the settlement agreement. The settlement will become effective upon the expiration of a 30-day appellate period. This case is pending.
In July 2019, a similar purported class action was filed by certain Santee Cooper ratepayers against DESC, SCANA, Dominion Energy and former directors and officers of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Orangeburg, South Carolina (the Luquire Case). In August 2019, DESC, SCANA and Dominion Energy were voluntarily dismissed from the case. The claims are similar to the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement as described above relating to this matter as well as the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case and the Glibowski Case. This case will be dismissed upon the effective date of the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case settlement. This case is pending.
RICO Class Action
In January 2018, a purported class action was filed, and subsequently amended, against SCANA, DESC and certain former executive officers in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina (the Glibowski Case). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that SCANA, DESC and the individual defendants participated in an unlawful racketeering enterprise in violation of RICO and conspired to violate RICO by fraudulently inflating utility bills to generate unlawful proceeds. The DESC Ratepayer Class Action settlement described previously contemplates dismissal of claims by DESC ratepayers in this case against DESC, SCANA and their officers. In August 2019, the individual defendants filed motions to dismiss. In March 2020, the parties executed a settlement agreement as described above relating to this matter as well as the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case and the Luquire Case. This case will be dismissed upon the effective date of the Santee Cooper Ratepayer Case settlement. This case is pending.
SCANA Shareholder Litigation
In September 2017, a purported class action was filed against SCANA and certain former executive officers and directors in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. Subsequent additional purported class actions were separately filed against all or nearly all of these defendants (collectively the SCANA Securities Class Action). In January 2018, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina consolidated these suits, and the plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint in March 2018. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants violated §10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and that the individually named defendants are liable under §20(a) of the same act. In June 2018, the defendants filed motions to dismiss. In March 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motions to dismiss. In December 2019, the parties executed a settlement agreement pursuant to which SCANA will pay $192.5 million, up to $32.5 million of which can be satisfied through the issuance of shares of Dominion Energy common stock, subject to approval by the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. In February 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted preliminary approval of the settlement agreement, pending a fairness hearing. In March 2020, SCANA funded an escrow account with $160 million in cash and the balance of the settlement will be paid upon final approval of the settlement by the court. In July 2020, the court granted final approval of the settlement agreement. In August 2020, SCANA paid the balance of $32.5 million in cash to satisfy the settlement.
In September 2017, a shareholder derivative action was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina. In September 2018, this action was consolidated with another action in the Business Court Pilot Program in Richland County. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, and that the defendants were unjustly enriched by bonuses they were paid in connection with the project. In January 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated action. In February 2019, one action was voluntarily dismissed. In March 2020, the court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss. In April 2020, the defendants filed a notice of appeal with the South Carolina Court of Appeals and a petition with the Supreme Court of South Carolina seeking appellate review of the denial of the motion to dismiss. In June 2020, the plaintiffs filed a motion to dismiss the appeal with the South Carolina Court of Appeals, which was granted in July 2020. This case is pending.
In January 2018, a purported class action was filed against SCANA, Dominion Energy and certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Lexington County, South Carolina (the City of Warren Lawsuit). The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that defendants violated their fiduciary duties to shareholders by executing a merger agreement that would unfairly deprive plaintiffs of the true value of their SCANA stock, and that Dominion Energy aided and abetted these actions. Among other remedies, the plaintiff seeks to enjoin and/or rescind the merger. In February 2018, Dominion Energy removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina, and filed a Motion to Dismiss in March 2018. In June 2018, the case was remanded back to the State Court of Common Pleas in Lexington County. Dominion Energy appealed the decision to remand to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where the appeal was consolidated with a similar appeal in the Metzler Lawsuit discussed below. In June 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit reversed the order remanding the case to state court.
In February 2018, a purported class action was filed against Dominion Energy and certain former directors of SCANA and DESC in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina (the Metzler Lawsuit). The allegations made and the relief sought by the plaintiffs are substantially similar to that described for the City of Warren Lawsuit. In February 2018, Dominion Energy removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina, and filed a Motion to Dismiss in March 2018. In August 2018, the case was remanded back to the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County. Dominion Energy appealed the decision to remand to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, where the appeal was consolidated with the City of Warren Lawsuit. In June 2019, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit reversed the order remanding the case to state court.
In September 2019, the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina granted the plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit. In October 2019, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint against certain former directors and executive officers of SCANA and DESC, which stated substantially similar allegations to those in the City of Warren Lawsuit and the Metzler Lawsuit as well as an inseparable fraud claim. In November 2019, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. In April 2020,
the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina denied the motion to dismiss. In May 2020, SCANA filed a motion to intervene. This case is pending.
In May 2019, a case was filed against certain former executive officers and directors of SCANA in the State Court of Common Pleas in Richland County, South Carolina. The plaintiff alleges, among other things, that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by their gross mismanagement of the NND Project, were unjustly enriched by the bonuses they were paid in connection with the project and breached their fiduciary duties to secure and obtain the best price for the sale of SCANA. Also in May 2019, the case was removed to the U.S. District Court of South Carolina by the non-South Carolina defendants. In June 2019, the plaintiffs filed a motion to remand the case to state court. In January 2020, the case was remanded to state court. In February 2020, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss. This case is pending.
Employment Class Actions and Indemnification
In August 2017, a case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina on behalf of persons who were formerly employed at the NND Project. In July 2018, the court certified this case as a class action. In February 2019, certain of these plaintiffs filed an additional case, which case has been dismissed and the plaintiffs have joined the case filed August 2017. The plaintiffs allege, among other things, that SCANA, DESC, Fluor Corporation and Fluor Enterprises, Inc. violated the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act in connection with the decision to stop construction at the NND Project. The plaintiffs allege that the defendants failed to provide adequate advance written notice of their terminations of employment and are seeking damages, which could be as much as $100 million for 100% of the NND Project.
In September 2018, a case was filed in the State Court of Common Pleas in Fairfield County, South Carolina by Fluor Enterprises, Inc. and Fluor Daniel Maintenance Services, Inc. against DESC and Santee Cooper. The plaintiffs make claims for indemnification, breach of contract and promissory estoppel arising from, among other things, the defendants' alleged failure and refusal to defend and indemnify the Fluor defendants in the aforementioned case. These cases are pending.
FILOT Litigation and Related Matters
In November 2017, Fairfield County filed a complaint and a motion for temporary injunction against DESC in the State Court of Common Pleas in Fairfield County, South Carolina, making allegations of breach of contract, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of implied duty of good faith and fair dealing and unfair trade practices related to DESC’s termination of the FILOT agreement between DESC and Fairfield County related to the NND Project. The plaintiff sought a temporary and permanent injunction to prevent DESC from terminating the FILOT agreement. The plaintiff withdrew the motion for temporary injunction in December 2017. This case is pending.
Governmental Proceedings and Investigations
In June 2018, DESC received a notice of proposed assessment of approximately $410 million, excluding interest, from the SCDOR following its audit of DESC’s sales and use tax returns for the periods September 1, 2008 through December 31, 2017. The proposed assessment, which includes 100% of the NND Project, is based on the SCDOR’s position that DESC’s sales and use tax exemption for the NND Project does not apply because the facility will not become operational. DESC has protested the proposed assessment, which remains pending.
In September and October 2017, SCANA was served with subpoenas issued by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of South Carolina and the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement seeking documents related to the NND Project. In February 2020, the SEC filed a complaint against SCANA, two of its former executive officers and DESC in the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina alleging that the defendants violated federal securities laws by making false and misleading statements about the NND Project. In April 2020, SCANA and DESC reached an agreement in principle with the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement to settle, without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint. The Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement has not yet presented the proposed settlement to the SEC. The agreement in principle would, among other things, require SCANA to pay a civil monetary penalty totaling $25 million, and SCANA and DESC to pay disgorgement and prejudgment interest totaling $112.5 million, which disgorgement and prejudgment interest amount will be deemed satisfied by the settlements in the SCANA Securities Class Action and the DESC Ratepayer Case. The proposed settlement is contingent on the review and approval of final documentation by SCANA, DESC and the Staff of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement and is subject to approval by the SEC and the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina. In June 2020, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of South Carolina filed a motion to intervene and stay the SEC civil action, which the court granted. The stay is currently in effect but does not preclude the SEC’s Division of Enforcement from presenting the proposed settlement with SCANA and DESC to the SEC. This matter is pending.
In addition, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division is conducting a criminal investigation into the handling of the NND Project by SCANA and DESC. Dominion Energy is cooperating fully with the investigations by the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division, including responding to additional subpoenas and document requests. Dominion Energy has also entered into a cooperation agreement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office. The cooperation agreement provides that in consideration of its full cooperation with these investigations to the satisfaction of both agencies, neither such agency will criminally prosecute or bring any civil action against Dominion Energy or any of its current, previous, or future direct or indirect subsidiaries related to the NND Project. A former executive officer of SCANA entered a plea agreement with the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the South Carolina Attorney General’s Office in June 2020 and entered a guilty plea with the U.S. District Court for the District of South Carolina in July 2020. These matters are pending.
Other Litigation
In December 2018, arbitration proceedings commenced between DESC and Cameco Corporation related to a supply agreement signed in May 2008. This agreement provides the terms and conditions under which DESC agreed to purchase uranium hexafluoride from Cameco Corporation over a period from 2010 to 2020. Cameco Corporation alleges that DESC violated this agreement by failing to purchase the stated quantities of uranium hexafluoride for the 2017 and 2018 delivery years. DESC denies that it is in breach of the agreement and believes that it has reduced its purchase quantity within the terms of the agreement. This matter is pending.
Abandoned NND Project
DESC, for itself and as agent for Santee Cooper, entered into an engineering, construction and procurement contract with Westinghouse and WECTEC in 2008 for the design and construction of the NND Project, of which DESC’s ownership share is 55%. Various difficulties were encountered in connection with the project. The ability of Westinghouse and WECTEC to adhere to established budgets and construction schedules was affected by many variables, including unanticipated difficulties encountered in connection with project engineering and the construction of project components, constrained financial resources of the contractors, regulatory, legal, training and construction processes associated with securing approvals, permits and licenses and necessary amendments to them within projected time frames, the availability of labor and materials at estimated costs and the efficiency of project labor. There were also contractor and supplier performance issues, difficulties in timely meeting critical regulatory requirements, contract disputes, and changes in key contractors or subcontractors. These matters preceded the filing for bankruptcy protection by Westinghouse and WECTEC in March 2017, and were the subject of comprehensive analyses performed by SCANA and Santee Cooper.
Based on the results of SCANA’s analysis, and in light of Santee Cooper's decision to suspend construction on the NND Project, in July 2017, SCANA determined to stop the construction of the units and to pursue recovery of costs incurred in connection with the construction under the abandonment provisions of the Base Load Review Act or through other means. This decision by SCANA became the focus of numerous legislative, regulatory and legal proceedings. Some of these proceedings remain unresolved and are described above.
In September 2017, DESC, for itself and as agent for Santee Cooper, filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York Proofs of Claim for unliquidated damages against each of Westinghouse and WECTEC. These Proofs of Claim were based upon the anticipatory repudiation and material breach by Westinghouse and WECTEC of the contract, and assert against Westinghouse and WECTEC any and all claims that are based thereon or that may be related thereto.
Westinghouse’s reorganization plan was confirmed by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York and became effective in August 2018. In connection with the effectiveness of the reorganization plan, the contract associated with the NND Project was deemed rejected. DESC is contesting approximately $285 million of filed liens in Fairfield County, South Carolina. Most of these asserted liens are claims that relate to work performed by Westinghouse subcontractors before the Westinghouse bankruptcy, although some of them are claims arising from work performed after the Westinghouse bankruptcy.
Westinghouse has indicated that some unsecured creditors have sought or may seek amounts beyond what Westinghouse allocated when it submitted its reorganization plan to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. If any unsecured creditor is successful in its attempt to include its claim as part of the class of general unsecured creditors beyond the amounts in the bankruptcy reorganization plan allocated by Westinghouse, it is possible that the reorganization plan will not provide for payment in full or nearly in full to its pre-petition trade creditors. The shortfall could be significant.
DESC and Santee Cooper were responsible for amounts owed to Westinghouse for valid work performed by Westinghouse subcontractors on the NND Project after the Westinghouse bankruptcy filing until termination of the interim assessment agreement. In December 2019, DESC and Santee Cooper entered into a confidential settlement agreement with W Wind Down Co LLC resolving claims relating to the interim assessment agreement.
Further, some Westinghouse subcontractors who have made claims against Westinghouse in the bankruptcy proceeding also filed against DESC and Santee Cooper in South Carolina state court for damages. Many of these claimants have also asserted construction liens against the NND Project site. DESC also intends to oppose these claims and liens. With respect to claims of Westinghouse subcontractors, DESC believes there were sufficient amounts previously funded during the interim assessment agreement period to pay such validly asserted claims. With respect to the Westinghouse subcontractor claims which relate to other periods, DESC understands that such claims will be paid pursuant to Westinghouse’s confirmed bankruptcy reorganization plan. DESC further understands that the amounts paid under the plan may satisfy such claims in full. Therefore, DESC believes that the Westinghouse subcontractors may be paid substantially (and potentially in full) by Westinghouse. While Dominion Energy cannot be assured that it will not have any exposure on account of unpaid Westinghouse subcontractor claims, which DESC is presently disputing, Dominion Energy believes it is unlikely that it will be required to make payments on account of such claims.
Nuclear Matters
In March 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami caused significant damage at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power station in northeast Japan. These events resulted in significant nuclear safety reviews by the NRC and industry groups such as the Institute of Nuclear Power Operations. Like other U.S. nuclear operators, Dominion Energy has gathered supporting data and participated in industry initiatives focused on the ability to respond to and mitigate the consequences of, design-basis and beyond-design-basis events at its stations.
In July 2011, an NRC task force provided initial recommendations based on its review of the Fukushima Daiichi accident and in October 2011 the NRC staff prioritized these recommendations into Tiers 1, 2 and 3. Tier 1 recommendations consisted of actions which the NRC staff determined should be started without unnecessary delay. Tier 2 and 3 items consisted of items which could not be initiated in the near term because of resource restraints, the need for further technical assessment, or were dependent on activities related to the higher priority Tier 1 issues. In December 2011, the NRC Commissioners approved the agency staff’s prioritization and recommendations, and that same month an appropriations act directed the NRC to require reevaluation of external hazards (not limited to seismic and flooding hazards) as soon as possible.
Based on the prioritized recommendations, in March 2012, the NRC issued orders and information requests requiring specific reviews and actions to all operating reactor licensees, construction permit holders and combined license holders based on the lessons learned from the Fukushima Daiichi event. The orders applicable to Dominion Energy requiring implementation of safety enhancements related to mitigation strategies for responding to extreme natural events resulting in the loss of power at plants, and enhancing spent fuel pool instrumentation have been implemented. The information requests issued by the NRC requested each reactor licensee to reevaluate the seismic and external flooding hazards at their facility using present-day methods and information, conduct walkdowns of their facility to ensure protection against these hazards in their current design basis, and to reevaluate their emergency communications systems and staffing levels. The walkdowns of each unit have been completed, audited by the NRC and found to be adequate. Reevaluation of the emergency communications systems and staffing levels was completed as part of the effort to comply with the orders. Reevaluation of the seismic hazards is complete and final with NRC acceptance received for all Dominion Energy facilities. Reevaluation of the external flooding hazards is complete for all Dominion Energy facilities. The NRC approved the external flooding hazards for Surry in May 2020. NRC acceptance of the external flooding hazards reevaluations for Millstone has not yet been received, although the NRC is expected to accept the analysis in 2020. Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not currently expect that compliance with the NRC’s information requests will materially impact their financial position, results of operations or cash flows during the implementation period. The NRC staff has resolved the Tier 2 and Tier 3 recommendations and no additional future actions on the part of Dominion Energy are anticipated with respect to these recommendations. Therefore, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power do not expect material financial impacts related to compliance with Tier 2 and Tier 3 recommendations.
Nuclear Operations
Nuclear Insurance
During the second quarter of 2020, the total liability protection per nuclear incident available to all participants in the Secondary Financial Protection Program decreased from $13.9 billion to $13.8 billion. This decrease does not impact Dominion Energy’s responsibility per active unit under the Price-Anderson Amendments Act of 1988.
Spent Nuclear Fuel
As discussed in Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Virginia Power entered into contracts with the DOE for the disposal of spent nuclear fuel under provisions of the Nuclear Waste Policy Act of 1982.
In June 2018, a lawsuit for Kewaunee was filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims for recovery of spent nuclear fuel storage costs incurred after 2013. In March 2019, Dominion Energy amended its filing for recovery of spent nuclear fuel storage to include costs incurred for the year ended December 31, 2018. This matter is pending.
Guarantees, Surety Bonds and Letters of Credit
Dominion Energy’s guarantee agreement to support a portion of Atlantic Coast Pipeline’s obligation under a revolving credit facility is described in Note 10. In addition, at June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy had issued an additional $27 million of guarantees, primarily to support other equity method investees. No amounts related to the other guarantees have been recorded.
Dominion Energy also enters into guarantee arrangements on behalf of its consolidated subsidiaries, primarily to facilitate their commercial transactions with third parties. If any of these subsidiaries fail to perform or pay under the contracts and the counterparties seek performance or payment, Dominion Energy would be obligated to satisfy such obligation. To the extent that a liability subject to a guarantee has been incurred by one of Dominion Energy’s consolidated subsidiaries, that liability is included in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Dominion Energy is not required to recognize liabilities for guarantees issued on behalf of its subsidiaries unless it becomes probable that it will have to perform under the guarantees. Terms of the guarantees typically end once obligations have been paid. Dominion Energy currently believes it is unlikely that it would be required to perform or otherwise incur any losses associated with guarantees of its subsidiaries’ obligations.
At June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy had issued the following subsidiary guarantees:

Credit-Related Contingent Provisions
The majority of Dominion Energy’s derivative instruments contain credit-related contingent provisions. These provisions require Dominion Energy to provide collateral upon the occurrence of specific events, primarily a credit rating downgrade. If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy would have been required to post $13 million and $10 million, respectively, of additional collateral to its counterparties. The collateral that would be required to be posted includes the impacts of any offsetting asset positions and any amounts already posted for derivatives, non-derivative contracts and derivatives elected under the normal purchases and normal sales exception, per contractual terms. Dominion Energy had posted $4 million of collateral at June 30, 2020 related to derivatives with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash and had posted 0 collateral at December 31, 2019. The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with credit-related contingent provisions that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash was $17 million and $10 million at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which does not include the impact of any offsetting asset positions.
If the credit-related contingent features underlying these instruments that are in a liability position and not fully collateralized with cash were fully triggered as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Virginia Power would have been required to post an additional $2 million and $8 million, respectively, of collateral to its counterparties.

Overview
Second Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net income attributable to Dominion Energy decreased $1.2 billion, primarily due to charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project and related portions of the Supply Header Project partially offset by an increase in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds, the absence of charges related to a voluntary retirement program, the absence of a charge for Virginia Power’s contract termination with a non-utility generator, the absence of a charge for litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination and the absence of a charge for the abandonment of a project at a Virginia Power electric generating facility.
Year-To-Date 2020 vs. 2019
Net loss attributable to Dominion Energy increased $813 million, primarily due to charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project and related portions of the Supply Header Project, a decrease in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds and an increase in charges associated with the planned early retirements of certain electric generation facilities in Virginia. These increases in net loss were partially offset by the absence of charges for refunds of amounts previously
collected from retail electric customers of DESC for the NND Project and for certain regulatory assets and property, plant and equipment acquired in the SCANA Combination for which Dominion Energy committed to forgo recovery, a decrease in charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination, the absence of charges for the planned early retirement of certain Virginia Power automated meter reading infrastructure and the absence of charges related to a voluntary retirement program.

An analysis of Dominion Energy’s results of operations follows:
Second Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue remained substantially consistent, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These decreases were substantially offset by:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other operations and maintenance decreased 22%, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 2%, primarily due to various projects being placed into service ($32 million), partially offset by the absence of depreciation from certain electric generation facilities that have been committed to be retired early ($16 million).
Other taxes decreased 10%, primarily due to the absence of a charge related to a voluntary retirement program ($23 million).
Impairment of assets and other charges increased 70%, primarily due to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other income increased $449 million, primarily due to an increase in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds ($311 million) and the absence of a charge related to a voluntary retirement program ($112 million).
Earnings (loss) from equity method investees decreased $2.3 billion, primarily due to charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project.
Interest and related charges remained substantially consistent, primarily reflecting lower interest expense from early redemptions of certain securities in 2019 and 2020 ($37 million) and a reduction in commercial paper borrowings ($13 million), substantially offset by increased borrowings in response to COVID-19 ($24 million) and increases for unrealized losses associated with freestanding derivatives ($23 million).
Income tax expense decreased $599 million, primarily due to a larger pre-tax loss ($683 million), partially offset by charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project and related Supply Header Project ($81 million).
Noncontrolling interests increased $33 million, primarily due to the sale of a 25% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in Cove Point to Brookfield in December 2019.
Year-To-Date 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue increased 21%, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
These increases were partially offset by:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other operations and maintenance decreased 11%, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Depreciation, depletion and amortization increased 3%, primarily due to various projects being placed into service ($59 million) partially offset by the absence of depreciation from certain electric generation facilities that were, or have been committed to be retired early ($25 million) and a decrease reflecting the expected approval of the nuclear plant life extensions from the NRC ($16 million).
Impairment of assets and other charges increased 13%, primarily due to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other income decreased 88%, primarily reflecting net investment losses in 2020 compared to net investment gains in 2019 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds ($481 million) and charges associated with litigation acquired in the SCANA Combination ($25 million), partially offset by the absence of a charge related to a voluntary retirement program ($112 million) and an increase in non-service components of pension and other postretirement employee benefit plan credits ($26 million).
Earnings (loss) from equity method investees decreased $2.3 billion, primarily due to charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project.
Interest and related charges increased 2%, primarily related to increases for unrealized losses associated with freestanding derivatives ($81 million), charges associated with the early redemption of certain securities in the first quarter of 2020 ($25 million) and increased borrowings in response to COVID-19 ($24 million), partially offset by lower interest expense from early redemptions of certain securities in 2019 and 2020 ($94 million) and reductions in commercial paper borrowings ($17 million).
Income tax expense decreased $732 million, primarily due to a larger pre-tax loss ($623 million) and the absence of a charge for certain income tax-related regulatory assets acquired in the SCANA Combination for which Dominion Energy committed to forgo
recovery ($198 million), partially offset by charges associated with the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project and related Supply Header Project ($81 million).
Noncontrolling interests increased $61 million, primarily due to the sale of a 25% noncontrolling limited partnership interest in Cove Point to Brookfield in December 2019.

Overview
Second Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net income increased $390 million, primarily due to the absence of charges related to a voluntary retirement program, a contract termination with a non-utility generator and the abandonment of a project at an electric generating facility.
Year-To-Date 2020 vs. 2019
Net income increased $90 million, primarily due to the absence of charges related to the planned early retirement of certain automated meter reading infrastructure, a voluntary retirement program and a contract termination with a non-utility generator. These increases were partially offset by an increase in charges related to the planned early retirements of certain electric generation facilities and the absence of a revision of future ash pond and landfill closure costs as a result of Virginia legislation enacted in March 2019.

An analysis of Virginia Power’s results of operations follows:
Second Quarter 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue increased 4%, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other operations and maintenance decreased 33%, primarily reflecting the absence of a charge related to a voluntary retirement program ($186 million), a decrease in salaries, wages and benefits ($17 million) and a decrease in planned outage costs ($19 million). These decreases were partially offset by an increase in certain expenses which are primarily recovered through state and FERC rates and do not impact net income ($16 million) and an increase in allowance for credit risk on customer accounts related to COVID-19 ($13 million).
Depreciation and amortization increased 3%, primarily due to various projects being placed into service ($28 million), partially offset by the absence of depreciation from certain electric generation facilities that have been committed to be retired early ($16 million) and a decrease reflecting the expected approval of the nuclear plant life extensions from the NRC ($8 million).
Impairment of assets and other charges decreased 78%, primarily due to the absence of charges related to a contract termination with a non-utility generator ($135 million) and the abandonment of a project at an electric generating facility ($62 million), partially offset by an increase in dismantling costs associated with certain electric generation facilities ($30 million) and the write-off of the portion of a regulatory asset no longer probable of recovery as a result of the enactment of the VCEA ($16 million).
Other income increased $36 million, primarily reflecting an increase in net investment earnings on nuclear decommissioning trust funds.
Income tax expense increased $41 million, primarily due to higher pre-tax income ($80 million), partially offset by higher investment tax credits ($39 million).
Year-To-Date 2020 vs. 2019
Net revenue increased 6%, primarily reflecting:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other operations and maintenance decreased 6%, primarily reflecting the absence of a charge related to a voluntary retirement program ($186 million), a decrease in salaries, wages and benefits ($34 million) and a decrease in planned outage costs ($29 million). These decreases were partially offset by the absence of a benefit from the revision of future ash pond and landfill closure costs as a result of Virginia legislation enacted in March 2019 ($113 million), an increase in certain expenses which are primarily recovered through state and FERC rates and do not impact net income ($55 million) and an increase in allowance for credit risk on customer accounts related to COVID-19 ($13 million).
Depreciation and amortization increased 2%, primarily due to various projects being placed into service ($52 million), partially offset by the absence of depreciation from certain electric generation facilities that were, or have committed to be, retired early ($25 million) and a decrease reflecting the expected approval of the nuclear plant life extensions from the NRC ($16 million).
Impairment of assets and other charges increased 9%, primarily due to:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other income decreased $53 million, primarily reflecting net investment losses in 2020 compared to net investment gains in 2019 on nuclear decommissioning trust funds.
Income tax expense increased 26%, primarily due to higher pre-tax income ($25 million), partially offset by higher investment tax credits ($19 million).

Liquidity and Capital Resources34
Dominion Energy depends on both internal and external sources of liquidity to provide working capital and as a bridge to long-term debt financings. Short-term cash requirements not met by cash provided by operations are generally satisfied with proceeds from short-term borrowings. Long-term cash needs are met through issuances of debt and/or equity securities.
At June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy had $5.7 billion of unused capacity under its joint revolving credit facility. In addition, Dominion Energy had $675 million available under a $900 million 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement entered into in March 2020.
As part of its strategic response to COVID-19, Dominion Energy undertook certain measures in March and April 2020 to buttress its liquidity position. This includes entering the $900 million 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement, which has the potential for an additional $300 million of capacity upon certain events. In addition, Dominion Energy borrowed $1.1 billion under two 364-Day Term Loan Credit Agreements and issued $2.3 billion of senior notes. In June 2020, Dominion Energy repaid the outstanding balance of $625 million associated with one of the 364-Day Term Loan Credit Agreements. See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Operating Cash Flows
Net cash provided by Dominion Energy’s operating activities increased $823 million, primarily due to higher deferred fuel cost recoveries, lower payments for income taxes, the absence of a contract termination payment and net changes in working capital items.
Dominion Energy believes that its operations provide a stable source of cash flow to contribute to planned levels of capital expenditures and maintain or grow the dividend on common shares. In December 2019, Dominion Energy’s Board of Directors established an annual dividend rate for 2020 of $3.76 per share of common stock. In January 2020, Dominion Energy’s Board of Directors declared dividends payable in March 2020 of 94 cents per share of common stock, and in May 2020, Dominion Energy’s Board of Directors declared dividends payable in June 2020 of 94 cents per share of common stock. In July 2020, Dominion Energy’s Board of Directors declared dividends payable in September 2020 of 94 cents per share of common stock. Also in July 2020, Dominion Energy announced that it currently expects to make a fourth dividend payment in December 2020 of approximately 63 cents per share of common stock reflecting the expected timing of the closing of the proposed transaction with BHE. Dividends are subject to declaration by the Board of Directors.
Dominion Energy’s operations are subject to risks and uncertainties that may negatively impact the timing or amounts of operating cash flows, which are discussed in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors in the Companies’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
Credit Risk
Dominion Energy’s exposure to potential concentrations of credit risk results primarily from its energy marketing and price risk management activities. Presented below is a summary of Dominion Energy’s credit exposure as of June 30, 2020 for these activities. Gross credit exposure for each counterparty is calculated prior to the application of collateral and represents outstanding receivables plus any unrealized on- or off-balance sheet exposure, taking into account contractual netting rights.

Investing Cash Flows
Net cash used in Dominion Energy’s investing activities increased $1.5 billion, primarily due to an increase in plant construction and other property additions, the absence of cash acquired in the SCANA Combination and the acquisitions of Pivotal LNG, Inc. and an additional interest in Atlantic Coast Pipeline.
Financing Cash Flows and Liquidity
Dominion Energy relies on capital markets as significant sources of funding for capital requirements not satisfied by cash provided by its operations. As discussed further in Credit Ratings and Debt Covenants in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, the ability to borrow funds or issue securities and the return demanded by investors are affected by credit ratings. In addition, the raising of external capital is subject to certain regulatory requirements, including registration with the SEC for certain issuances.
Dominion Energy currently meets the definition of a well-known seasoned issuer under SEC rules governing the registration, communications and offering processes under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The rules provide for a streamlined shelf registration process to provide registrants with timely access to capital. This allows Dominion Energy to use automatic shelf registration statements to register any offering of securities, other than those for exchange offers or business combination transactions. In June 2020, Dominion Energy filed a SEC shelf registration statement for the sale of debt and equity securities which replaced the shelf registration statement filed by Dominion Energy in June 2017.
Net cash provided by Dominion Energy's financing activities was $671 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to net cash used by financing activities of $311 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher issuances of short- and long-term debt to buttress liquidity as a strategic response to COVID-19 and lower repayments of long-term debt, partially offset by higher repayments of short-term debt and the absence of the issuance of the 2019 Equity Units.
In November 2017, Dominion Energy filed a SEC shelf registration statement for the sale of up to $3.0 billion of variable denomination floating rate demand notes, called Dominion Energy Reliability InvestmentSM. The registration limits the principal amount that may be outstanding at any one time to $1.0 billion. The notes are offered on a continuous basis and bear interest at a floating rate per annum determined by the Dominion Energy Reliability Investment Committee, or its designee, on a weekly basis. The notes have no stated maturity date, are non-transferable and may be redeemed in whole or in part by Dominion Energy or at the
investor’s option at any time. The balance as of June 30, 2020 was $176 million. The notes are short-term debt obligations on Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes and to repay debt.
In July 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $3.0 billion of Dominion Energy’s common stock and rescinded the prior two authorizations from 2005 and 2007. The repurchase program does not include a specific timetable or price or volume targets and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time. Shares may be purchased through open market or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise at the discretion of management subject to prevailing market conditions, applicable securities laws and other factors.
See Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for further information regarding Dominion Energy’s credit facilities, liquidity and significant financing transactions.
Credit Ratings
Credit ratings are intended to provide banks and capital market participants with a framework for comparing the credit quality of securities and are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities. In the Credit Ratings section of MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, there is a discussion on the use of capital markets by Dominion Energy as well as the impact of credit ratings on the accessibility and costs of using these markets. As of June 30, 2020, there have been no changes in Dominion Energy’s credit ratings.
Debt Covenants
In the Debt Covenants section of MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, there is a discussion on the various covenants present in the enabling agreements underlying Dominion Energy’s debt. In addition, see Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for a description of certain financial covenants associated with term loan and revolving credit agreements entered into in the first quarter of 2020. As of June 30, 2020, there have been no material changes to debt covenants, nor any events of default under Dominion Energy’s debt covenants.
Future Cash Payments for Contractual Obligations and Planned Capital Expenditures
As of June 30, 2020, there have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to Dominion Energy’s contractual obligations nor any material changes to planned capital expenditures as disclosed in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Use of Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2020, there have been no material changes to the off-balance sheet arrangements disclosed in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, with the exception of the following matter.
In December 2019, Dominion Energy signed an agreement with a lessor, as amended in May 2020, to construct and lease a new corporate office property in Richmond, Virginia. The lessor is providing equity and has obtained financing commitments from debt investors, totaling $465 million, to fund the estimated project costs. If Dominion Energy ultimately proceeds with the project through completion, the project is expected to be completed by September 2024. Dominion Energy has been appointed to act as the construction agent for the lessor, during which time Dominion Energy will request cash draws from the lessor and debt investors to fund all project costs. If the project is terminated under certain events, Dominion Energy could be required to pay up to 100% of the then funded amount.
The lease term will commence once construction is substantially complete and the facility is able to be occupied and end in December 2027. At the end of the initial lease term, Dominion Energy can (i) extend the term of the lease for an additional five years, subject to the approval of the participants, at current market terms, (ii) purchase the property for an amount equal to the project costs or, (iii) subject to certain terms and conditions, sell the property on behalf of the lessor to a third party using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the highest cash purchase price for the property. If the project is sold and the proceeds from the sale are insufficient to repay the investors for the project costs, Dominion Energy may be required to make a payment to the lessor, up to 83% of project costs, for the difference between the project costs and sale proceeds. Dominion Energy is not considered the owner during construction for financial accounting purposes and, therefore, will not reflect the construction activity in its consolidated financial statements. Dominion Energy expects to recognize a right-of-use asset and a corresponding finance lease liability at the commencement of the lease term. Dominion Energy will be considered the owner of the leased property for tax purposes, and as a result, will be entitled to tax deductions for depreciation and interest expense.
Future Issues and Other Matters
The following discussion of future issues and other information includes current developments of previously disclosed matters and new issues arising during the period covered by, and subsequent to, the dates of Dominion Energy’s Consolidated Financial Statements that may impact future results of operations, financial condition and/or cash flows. This section should be read in conjunction with Item 1. Business and Future Issues and Other Matters in MD&A in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, Future Issues and Other Matters in MD&A in the Companies’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Environmental Matters
Dominion Energy is subject to costs resulting from a number of federal, state and local laws and regulations designed to protect human health and the environment. These laws and regulations affect future planning and existing operations. They can result in increased capital, operating and other costs as a result of compliance, remediation, containment and monitoring obligations. See Note 23 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Companies’ Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for additional information on various environmental matters.

Atlantic Coast Pipeline and Supply Header Projects
In July 2020, Dominion Energy and Duke Energy announced the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project. As a result, Dominion Energy recorded an abandonment for a significant portion of the Supply Header Project. See Notes 2 and 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for more information.
NWP 12 Permitting
In April 2020, the U.S. District Court for the District of Montana issued an order vacating an NWP 12 issued by the Army Corps of Engineers and remanding the permit back to the Army Corps of Engineers for consultation under the Endangered Species Act. In 2017, the Army Corps of Engineers issued an NWP 12 authorizing discharges related to construction projects into waters of the U.S. The district court concluded that the issuance of the NWP 12 was unlawful because the Army Corps of Engineers did not consult under the Endangered Species Act with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service. The district court also enjoined the Army Corps of Engineers from authorizing any dredge or fill activities under NWP 12. Following the district court’s ruling, the Army Corps of Engineers suspended the NWP 12. In May 2020, the district court amended its order to authorize the use of NWP 12 for all utility line projects other than new oil and gas pipeline projects. The Army Corps of Engineers sought emergency relief of the district court’s order from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court. In July 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court issued an order limiting the scope of the district court’s order to the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, allowing other new oil and gas pipeline projects to use the NWP 12 process pending the appeal of the district court’s order to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. As a result of the amended order, the cancellation of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline Project and the pending sale of its gas transmission operations to BHE, Dominion Energy does not currently expect this matter to have a material impact to its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
COVID-19
Dominion Energy continues to monitor the global outbreak of COVID-19 and has taken appropriate steps to mitigate the potential risks to Dominion Energy, its employees and its customers posed by the spread of the virus. Dominion Energy provides a critical service to its customers which means that it is paramount for the company to keep its employees who operate its businesses safe and informed. For example, Dominion Energy has taken precautions with regard to employee and facility hygiene, imposed travel limitations on employees, directed employees to work remotely whenever possible and expanded health and paid time off benefits for employees. Additional protocols have been implemented for required work within customer premises to protect Dominion Energy’s employees, such customers and the public. In addition, Dominion Energy has assessed and updated its existing business continuity plans for its business units in the context of this pandemic. Working with a medical advisor, Dominion Energy developed a COVID-19 training program, which has been rolled out to employees. Dominion Energy is providing all appropriate personal protection equipment to keep employees safe and has implemented additional protections such as temperature screenings, testing services, and mandatory face covering policies. Dominion Energy is also working with suppliers to understand the potential impacts to its supply chain; however, at this time, no material risks to Dominion Energy’s supply chain have been identified. This is a rapidly evolving situation, and Dominion Energy will continue to monitor developments affecting its workforce, suppliers and other aspects of its business, such as construction projects, and will take additional precautions as Dominion Energy believes are warranted. In addition, Dominion Energy continues to monitor both customer demand and its ability to collect customer receivables. While Dominion Energy currently does not expect a material impact to its results of operations from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on its operations, the ultimate impacts on its results of operations, financial position and/or cash flows could be material based on the ultimate duration of the pandemic and the related economic recovery.
ITEM 3.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE
DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The matters discussed in this Item may contain “forward-looking statements” as described in the introductory paragraphs under Part I, Item 2. MD&A in this report. The reader’s attention is directed to those paragraphs for discussion of various risksFor quantitative and uncertainties that may impact the Companies.
Market Risk Sensitive Instruments and Risk Management
The Companies’ financial instruments, commodity contracts and related financial derivative instruments are exposed to potential losses due to adverse changes in commodity prices, interest rates and equity security prices as described below. Commodity price risk is present in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s electric operations and Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas’ natural gas procurement and marketing operations due to the exposure to market shifts in prices received and paid for electricity, natural gas and other commodities. The Companies use commodity derivative contracts to manage price risk exposures for these operations. Interest rate risk is generally related to their outstanding debt and future issuances of debt. In addition, the Companies are exposed to investment price risk through various portfolios of equity and debt securities.
The following sensitivity analysis estimates the potential loss of future earnings or fair value fromqualitative disclosures about market risk sensitive instruments over a selected time period due to a 10% change in commodity prices or interest rates.
Commodity Price Risk
To manage price risk, Dominionaffecting Eastern Energy, and Virginia Power hold commodity-based derivative instruments held for non-trading purposes associated with purchases and salessee Item 7A of electricity, natural gas and other energy-related products. Dominion Energy Gas’ operations are contracted primarily under long-term fixed reservation agreements. Accordingly, management believes that Dominion Energy Gas is not subject to material commodity price risk.
The derivatives used to manage commodity price risk are executed within established policies and procedures and may include instruments such as futures, forwards, swaps, options and FTRs that are sensitive to changes in the related commodity prices. For sensitivity analysis purposes, the hypothetical change in market prices of commodity-based derivative instruments is determined basedEastern Energy’s Annual Report on models that consider the market prices of commodities in future periods, the volatility of the market prices in each period, as well as the time value factors of the derivative instruments. Prices and volatility are principally determined based on observable market prices.
A hypothetical 10% decrease in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease in fair value of $31 million and $50 million of Dominion Energy’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
A hypothetical 10% decrease in commodity prices would have resulted in a decrease in fair value of $42 million and $54 million of Virginia Power’s commodity-based derivative instruments as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
The impact of a change in energy commodity prices on the Companies' commodity-based derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net losses from commodity-based financial derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction, such as revenue from physical sales of the commodity.
Interest Rate Risk
The Companies manage their interest rate risk exposure predominantly by maintaining a balance of fixed and variable rate debt. They also enter into interest rate sensitive derivatives, including interest rate swaps and interest rate lock agreements. For variable rate debt outstanding for Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas, a hypothetical 10% increase in market interest rates would not have resulted in a material change in earnings at June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
The Companies also use interest rate derivatives, including forward-starting swaps, as hedges of forecasted interest payments. As of June 30, 2020, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas had $8.5 billion, $2.1 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $95 million, $50 million and $7 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ interest rate derivatives at June 30, 2020. As of December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas had $6.4 billion, $1.9 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, in aggregate notional amounts of these interest rate derivatives outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease of $135 million, $88 million and $17 million, respectively, in the fair value of Dominion Energy, Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas’ interest rate derivatives at December 31, 2019.
Dominion Energy Gas holds foreign currency swaps for the purpose of hedging the foreign currency exchange risk associated with Euro denominated debt. At both June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, Dominion Energy and Dominion Energy Gas had €250 million in aggregate notional amounts of these foreign currency swaps outstanding. A hypothetical 10% decrease in market interest rates would not have resulted in a material decrease in the fair value of Dominion Energy Gas’ foreign currency swaps at June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.
The impact of a change in interest rates on the Companies’ interest rate-based financial derivative instruments at a point in time is not necessarily representative of the results that will be realized when the contracts are ultimately settled. Net gains and/or losses from interest rate derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, to the extent realized, will generally be offset by recognition of the hedged transaction.
Investment Price Risk
Dominion Energy and Virginia Power are subject to investment price risk due to securities held as investments in nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust funds that are managed by third-party investment managers. These trust funds primarily hold marketable securities that are reported in Dominion Energy and Virginia Power’s Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.
Dominion Energy recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $207 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $603 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and $1.0 billionForm 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Net realized gainsEastern Energy’s exposure to market risk and losses include gains and losses from the saleits management of investments in both 2020 and 2019 as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value in 2019 only. Dominion Energy recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net increase in unrealized gains on debt investments of $37 million and $65 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $74 million for the year endedsuch risk has not changed materially since December 31, 2019.
Virginia Power recognized net investment losses (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $119 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, and net investment gains (including investment income) on nuclear decommissioning and rabbi trust investments of $282 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and $481 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. Net realized gains and losses include gains and losses from the sale of investments in both 2020 and 2019 as well as any other-than-temporary declines in fair value in 2019 only. Virginia Power recorded in AOCI and regulatory liabilities, a net increase in unrealized gains on debt investments of $20 million and $31 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $30 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Dominion Energy sponsors pension and other postretirement employee benefit plans that hold investments in trusts Refer to fund employee benefit payments. Virginia Power and Dominion Energy Gas employees participate in these plans. Differences between actual and expected returns on plan assets are accumulated and amortized during future periods. As such, any investment-related declines in these trusts will result in future increases in the net periodic cost recognized for employee benefit plans and will be included in the determination of the amount of cash to be contributedNote 8 to the employee benefit plans.Consolidated Financial Statements in this report for disclosure of Eastern Energy’s derivative positions as of September 30, 2020.
