Unscheduled
matter
Dear Chairman Holland and
Members of the Chesterfield
Board of Supervisors:
You are no doubt aware
that the Friends of
Chesterfield appeal regarding
the Dominion Energy gas plant
to the BZA was not accepted.
Just so you know, in not
accepting our appeal, the
county provided details which
we believe undermines the
county's apparent position
that the Board of Supervisors
need take no action related
to the gas plant.
First, Dominion Energy
recently stated in the media
that it is still considering
both sites and has made no
decision as to which site it
may prefer.
Second, the decision to
not accept our appeal
essentially admits that
Deputy Administrator Smith
had no basis on which to
certify CERC as consistent
with the County's ordinances.
In numbered paragraph 6, the
BZA notes that "Dominion has
not submitted a site plan for
review by the Director of
Planning," and that, as far
as the County is concerned,
important details about the
plant are still
"speculative."
The BZA further implies
that Deputy Administrator
Smith acted prior to a
forthcoming review by the
Planning Office, in which it
will determine whether the
plant will "be in compliance
with the County's zoning
ordinance and the zoning
cases applicable to the
properties."
Finally, the ruling is
not altogether clear on the
significance that the County
gives the Director of
Planning's April 5, 2024
Written Determination. If
you review that April 5

letter, you will note that
there is no mention of the
CCRC.
As a result, it remains our
position that Mr. Smith's May
24, 2024 signing of the Local
Governing Body Certification
Form is invalid and subject
to challenge.
For these reasons, we renew
our request for a Board of
Supervisors hearing on the
gas plant relating to both
the zoning and to the
Suitability and Value Form.
Upon a Board hearing and
consideration of public
testimony, we believe you
will conclude that Dominion
Energy's Chesterfield County
Reliability Center should not
be approved.
Sincerely,
Glen Besa
Friends of Chesterfield
Unscheduled

Bellwood Community Center,
and the James River, raises
substantial environmental
justice concerns.
Such gas facilities entail
health hazards for
neighboring communities.
Engineered for rapid cycling,
they often employ more
polluting fuels and possess
fewer pollution mitigation
mechanisms. According to
Dominion's projections, the
facility would discharge up
to 1,110 tons of hazardous
air pollutants annually,
presenting significant health
risks to nearby residents,
including numerous households
and the students of Bellwood
Elementary School.
Moreover, the gas facility's
construction is costly,
estimated at $600 million,
and its electricity
generation cost of $100 per
MWh is nearly five times that
of utility-scale solar power.
These expenses are likely to
burden consumers, and are
concerning when clean energy

options cost roughly $61 per
MWh. Clean energy
alternatives like solar,
wind, and battery storage can
meet our energy needs
sustainably and economically,
vital for addressing climate
change and ensuring a secure,
environmentally sound future
for all Virginians.
I urge you to reject
Dominion's proposed
Chesterfield Energy
Reliability Center and
advocate for clean energy
remedies. Please refer to the
accompanying document
delineating strategies to
support Virginia's projected
energy demand growth without
resorting to a new gas

I am a Virginian and a

until 2050 to stop emitting
altogether in order to avoid
severe consequences of

am reaching out to you about
Dominion Energy's proposed
"Chesterfield Energy

concerned for the future air

this plant is approved. This
facility would be a major
polluter in the area, at a
time when our state and
nation is making great

From Global Clean Air
(https://globalcleanair.org/m
ethane-and-health/)
(Environmental Defense
Fund):
Methane can also result in
poor air quality by
contributing to the formation
of ground level ozone and
particulate pollution.
Exposure to ozone and
particulate pollution damages
airways, aggravates lung
diseases, causes asthma
attacks, increases rates of
preterm birth, cardiovascular
morbidity and mortality, and
heightens stroke risk.
From the American Lung
Association
(https://www.lung.org/blog/me
thane-gas-pollution):
Climate change is responsible
for driving extreme heat and
extreme weather events like
flooding, which, besides
causing physical damage and
injury, can also lead to
stress and illness.
Additionally, the costs of
this facility are exorbitant.
Currently, sustainable
options are more cost-
effective, and would save
both taxpayers and ratepayers
valuable funds. For this,
your constituents would
surely be grateful.
Please protect people of

Climate change, spurred
largely by fossil fuel use,
threatens our existence.
According to the
Intergovernmental panel on
Climate Change, we have until
2030 to drastically reduce
carbon emissions and until
2050 to stop emitting
entirely if we are to prevent
severe consequences of
climate change. The effects
of increased pollution from
this plant, with its toxins
and particulates
contaminating our air and
water, would be most felt by
those closest to the plant;
however, the degradation to
health, the environment, and
overall quality of life would
be felt on a global scale.
At a time when it is urgent
that we wean ourselves from
fossil fuel, building a new
methane fired power plant
would counter the hard won
progress that we are making
in this direction. The
Virginia legislature passed
the Green New Deal which
mandates that public policy
fight climate change while
promoting the use of
renewable energy. As County
Supervisors, you can help
reach the goals of this
mandate and create new jobs
by building out sustainable
energy infrastructure instead
of contributing to our doom.
Thank you for the opportunity
to submit this comment and I
appreciate your work to
preserve our planet.

I am a long time resident of
Bon Air and deeply
appreciative of the
importance of air quality. I
am reaching out to you about
Dominion's proposal for the
Chesterfield Energy
Reliability center. I am
concerned for the future air
quality for my family and
grandchildren if this plant
is realized. According to the

Intergovernmental Panel on
Climate Change, humans have
until 2030 to drastically
reduce carbon emissions and
until 2050 to stop emitting
altogether in order to avoid
severe consequences of
climate change. The proposed
pollution output will be
2,213,100 tons of CO2
equivalent, a full 13%
increase in Dominion's total
emissions in its entire
service territory—including
North Carolina.
Please protect the people of
Chesterfield and all
Virginians from this project
and work with Dominion to
consider other renewable
options for energy
generation. Climate
stabilization is on all of
us. We need your voice to
stop this dangerous
initiative.
Dominion’s Chesterfield Gas-Fired Plant is Not a Cost -Effective or
Affordable Option, but Clean Energy is.

Building a New Gas -fired Power Plant in Chesterfield will force families to foot the bill for hundreds
of millions of dollars of decreased value of an asset and increase pollution. This fact sheet outlines the
impacts of Dominion’s gas plant proposal, and comparable clean energy mix replacement options, as studied
by Sierra Club using a methodology developed by RMI1.

*CEP = Clean Energy Portfolio (mix of clean energy projects)
● Clean energy is cheaper: Clean energy is not only cost competitive in Virginia today, but it avoids the cost
risks associated with building new fracked gas facilities. The proposed gas plant in Chesterfield is more
expensive than a viable clean energy mix that accomplishes the same result. Under a clean energy mix,
fewer costs are passed down to Dominion’s customers and the increase of pollution in nearby
communities caused by fossil fuels is avoided. Building clean energy projects instead of a new gas plant in
Chesterfield would save Dominion’s customers upwards of $880 million. Any new gas plant results in
higher electric bills for Virginia families while clean energy keeps costs low.
● Savings from clean energy could be even higher:
○ The clean energy mix presented here shows affordability benefits without Dominion meeting
any state-mandated energy efficiency goals. If Dominion utilizes advanced energy efficiency as
part of their clean energy mix, the clean energy option would be even more cost effective.
Virginia families could pay even less.
○ The clean energy option laid out here assumes that Dominion uses prevailing wages and takes
advantage of tax credits created by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Even more savings could
be accessed through the clean energy mix option if Dominion takes advantage of additional tax
credits related to using American-made parts and builds the clean energy in a federally-defined

2 Net present value (NPV) savings from building clean energy are the total savings expected over the lifetime of the clean energy project. This is the
difference between the lifetime cost of the gas replacement and the lifetime cost of the clean energy project.

energy community.
● Virginia families shouldn’t be forced to pay for a debt-incurring project: The Virginia Clean Economy Act
(VCEA) requires Dominion to deliver electricity from 100% renewable sources by 2045. Therefore, there is
no value to building a facility that will have to shut down shortly after it’s built. If the plant is constructed,
however, Virginia families will be held responsible for the $600,000,000+ of debt associated with
construction and the monthly costs of operations on all utility bills.. The only way to avoid an unnecessary
and costly increase in utility bills is to embrace a clean energy buildout.
● Clean energy protects health: The type of gas plant proposed by Dominion is air pollution-intensive,
emitting harmful chemicals and toxins like Nitrogen Oxide, Sulfur Dioxide, and PM 2.53. These pollutants
are linked with a suite of cardiovascular, respiratory and reproductive illnesses, including cancer. One
study also found that these types of gas plants release even higher amounts of Nitrogen Oxide when sited
in a community of color. There are no hazardous air pollutants associated with clean energy, so a mix of
solar, wind, and battery storage saves money
and doesn’t come with the trade off of making
communities sick.
● Clean energy preserves our climate:
Switching to clean energy achieves larger,
more impactful emissions reductions while
providing system reliability and service. If the
proposed gas plant is built in Chesterfield, the
projected greenhouse gas emissions are over
1 million metric tons carbon dioxide
equivalent (CO2e) per year. This is equivalent
to the climate pollution from over 240,000
cars on the road each year.
Sources and methodology
We use the methodology developed by RMI in Dyson, M., G. Glazer, and C. Teplin’s September 2019 report
The Growing Market for Clean Energy Portfolios to estimate both gas plant and clean energy replacement
costs. This methodology has been updated to include the latest available data. This also includes updates for
tax incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act and assumes this project uses prevailing wages to take advantage
of the additional tax credit available for projects with that characteristic. It assumes the project does not take
advantage of the tax credits for domestic content and locating in an energy community.
