Clock starts for state regulators to review proposed Dominion-NexEra…

Dominion Energy submitted its case to Virginia regulators for a $67 billion all-stock merger with NextEra Energy, creating a 10-million-customer East Coast utility. State regulators have six months to review arguments and decide whether to approve the combination. If you're selling infrastructure to utilities—transformers, grid software, modular reactors, or grid-scale batteries—a combined 110-gigawatt operator with 130 GW of connection demand just became your buyer, and the six-month approval window means they'll be locking in procurement decisions now. The merger language emphasises technology standardisation across four states: that's your footprint to own.
