​

• CERC will include four natural gas-powered simple cycle turbines.
• It will also include a 7-day supply of fuel oil.
• Coupled with the potential for future hydrogen-blend use, CERC will act as an “always ready” generation resource.
• It will not require any new pipelines or transmission infrastructure outside of Dominion Energy-owned property.

• CERC will be able to be deployed and shut down in as little at 10 minutes,
• The technology used is flexible in that it can run for short or long durations.
• Ensuring it is ready when needed but will not have to run when it is not needed.

• Each of the four CERC turbines will be able to generate up to 250 MW,
• The entire project able to generate up to a total of 1,000 MW.
• 1,000 MW is enough energy to power up to 250,000 homes.

• CERC will be constructed using state-of-the-art technology
• When operating, CERC will produce fewer emissions overall, including carbon emissions, compared to the retired coal units at Chesterfield Power Station.

• CERC will provide reliable energy
• The project is estimated to create over 540 jobs, produce over $2.2 million in state and local tax revenues, and contribute over $53 million in local economic activity during construction.
•  Estimated 35 direct and indirect jobs, produce $142.6 million in new tax revenues, and annually contribute $25 million in local economic activity during its operation.
