AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 minutes ago

Data Centers & Grid Costs: Virginia regulators are moving to make data centers pay more of the transmission bill, with a new SCC order requiring Dominion to create a tariff that ties certain grid upgrade costs to large-load customers—an approach Gov. Abigail Spanberger says could save households hundreds of millions. Energy Policy & Politics: The same data-center pressure is also fueling opposition to a proposed $67B Dominion–NextEra merger, as critics argue it could raise rates and weaken public trust. Legal/Privacy Fight: A backlash is growing against Flock license-plate cameras, with privacy activists and even vandalism campaigns targeting the devices nationwide. Public Health & Chemicals: Researchers warn that quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) in disinfectants may pose harms, adding to scrutiny of everyday cleaning products. Business Growth in Virginia: Activation Capital plans to expand Richmond’s VA Bio+Tech Center with new wet labs and upgraded space, aiming to relieve lab “backlog” for life-science startups. Local Economy: A Chatham restaurant, Gilbert’s Restaurant, received a Virginia Historical Highway Marker for serving as a safe haven for Black travelers during Jim Crow. Sports: Virginia native Michael Brennan won the Wyndham Championship and secured a spot in the PGA Tour postseason.
