Case PUR-2025-00091

On July 31, 2025, Washington Gas filed an application with the Virginia State Corporation Commission on June 29, 2022 requesting an increase in rates of $65.3 million, in addition to the transfer of $38.7 million of the costs of investments in infrastructure replacements made pursuant to the Company’s Steps to Advance Virginia’s Energy Plan (“SAVE Plan”) from the SAVE Rider to base rates, i.e., a total increase in rates of $104.0 million.

The preliminary review of the revenue request notes that the average increase in distribution costs for members is 30-35%, which would result in a approximate 15-20% increase in total Washington Gas Virginia bills beginning in January 2026.

AOBA will intervene in the rate case and provide more information for members as the case proceeds.

AOBA will be hosting a Utility Rate Case and Energy Market Update on August 21, 2025 at 11AM (virtual).
