Chesapeake City Manager Chris Price has requested a detailed explanation from Dominion Energy regarding the significant increase. The company attributes the higher bills primarily to extreme winter temperatures, which cause heating systems to use more power, and an increase in the per kilowatt-hour rate approved by the State Corporation Commission for infrastructure updates and rising costs.
