Electric Utility

Wakefield Virginia Electric Utility

One of the few localities in Virginia with a municipally owned electric utility — delivering power at a lower rate per kWh than Dominion Power.

About the Utility

The Town of Wakefield owns and operates its own municipal electric utility — a distinction held by very few localities in Virginia. This means your power is managed locally, rates are set by your town government, and service decisions are made by people who live here.

Wakefield’s electric rates are lower per kilowatt-hour than Dominion Power, making it a genuine financial advantage for residents and a competitive edge for businesses that choose to locate here.
