Constructing Lasting Energy Infrastructure
Dominion expects commercial operation in 2012 of a coal- and biomass-fired power station in
Southwest Virginia and five natural gas infrastructure projects aimed at helping gas producers
move their gas and liquid products to markets. All six are progressing on time and on budget.

The company is expanding the Hastings Extraction Plant
in West Virginia to increase processing and natural gas liquids
storage capacity as part of the gathering enhancement
project, designed to aid efficiency and reduce high pressures
in Dominion Transmission’s gathering system. Expansion
at the Hastings plant, along with construction at Natrium,
will help producers in the “wet” gas regions move their gas
and liquid products to market.

The 585-megawatt Virginia City Hybrid Energy Center, located
in Southwest Virginia’s Wise County, is expected to begin
operating in summer 2012. The facility, which will burn coal,
waste coal and wood waste, is being built with advanced
environmental controls to limit mercury, sulfur dioxide and
nitrogen oxides emissions. It is part of an investment that
is expected to support at least 750 new full-time jobs and
more than $3 billion in economic benefits for Virginia.
