Subject Line: Building something great: An update on the proposed merger

A message from
John Ketchum

To all employees of NextEra Energy companies:

Team,

Today is an exciting day for our company.

NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy announced an enhanced Virginia benefits package as part of our proposed combination, reflecting feedback gathered over more than three months of direct engagement with Virginians. It is a very strong package that puts customers first and positions Virginia as a global energy leader. But it also says something important about who we are becoming.

Enhanced Virginia benefits package

The package includes:

Four years of residential bill credits, instead of two

Expanded support for low-income customers

Reaffirmed support for protecting residential and small business customers from costs associated with serving data centers

Accelerated development of clean energy and energy infrastructure

Commitment to maintain Virginia employee headcount levels for five years

Significant Virginia workforce development and supplier investment

600 new NextEra Energy jobs and 400 supplier, vendor and contractor jobs in Virginia

A new shareholder-funded NextEra Energy dual headquarters tower in downtown Richmond to fulfill our commitment to maintain dual headquarters in Richmond and Juno Beach

What this means for our team

This combination is about growth, and today's announcement makes that real in a tangible way.

As we said in May, the proposed combined company would maintain dual headquarters in Juno Beach and Richmond. The new Richmond dual headquarters tower fulfills this commitment and adds to our existing foundation in Juno Beach. Our dual headquarters in Virginia would support work in renewable energy development and supply chain management, battery storage operations, nuclear and small modular reactor innovation, enterprise technology and cybersecurity, among others. The Virginia commitments also include 600 new NextEra Energy jobs in Virginia, support approximately 400 additional supplier jobs and invest in workforce development.

We expect to double the size of the combined company’s generation portfolio by 2032 at a time when America’s demand for electricity is rising rapidly and Virginia is experiencing significant economic growth and energy demand. The work ahead is significant, and together with Dominion Energy, we have the opportunity to build a larger platform with greater scale and broader capabilities, creating more ways for you to grow in your careers while helping meet the country’s growing energy needs.

While today’s announcement is another step in the formal regulatory process, it’s also an exciting step forward. We are creating a global leader in power and energy, and this moves us closer to achieving that goal.

Next steps

These commitments, including the new Virginia jobs and Richmond dual headquarters, are contingent on completion of the transaction and would not move forward unless and until the transaction closes.

The proposed combination remains subject to required regulatory approvals and other closing conditions, and the companies continue to expect it to close in the second half of 2027. In the meantime, NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy continue to operate as two separate companies. You have my commitment that we will continue to communicate openly as the process moves forward.

We have an exciting future and important work ahead. Thank you for staying focused on our customers and continuing to deliver with excellence.

As always, please stay safe and cyber aware.

Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer
