In a significant leap towards renewable energy goals, Dominion Energy's Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) commercial project has achieved a major regulatory milestone. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management confirmed the completion of its environmental analysis for the 2.6-gigawatt project set off the Virginia Beach coast. The Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) reflects extensive input from stakeholders, including Tribal Nations, ocean users, local communities, and the offshore wind industry. It comprehensively analyzes potential environmental impacts and suggests mitigation measures associated with CVOW's construction. The Notice of Availability for the final EIS is scheduled for publication in the Federal Register on Friday, September 29, 2023. Bob Blue, Dominion Energy's chair, president, and chief executive officer, emphasized the positive implications of this milestone.
