Loudoun’s grid should serve the people, not the corporations

We believe that it is essential to put forward a positive policy solution to the problems that we face, not just engage in empty saber rattling. Public Power Loudoun is fighting for a utility that is owned by the public and is operated for the public good, not for the profits of a fortune 500 company. By municipalizing Dominion, we can remove the perverse profit incentives that currently exist and give residents a say in what goes on in their communities. Formed in the summer of 2026, we are a 100% people powered organization, with no corporate or billionaire backers. When people get organized, transformative change is possible.

Public utilities are not an untested idea, but a proven model that has produced better outcomes for citizens in the US for decades. Industry analysis shows that 15% of eclectic customers in the US already get their power from a public utility, and pay on average 14% less than customers of other utility types. It is important to point out the problems that we are facing, but it is also crucial to push for a better path forward. A publicly owned utility is that path forward. With your help we can help lower costs, build a more sustainable grid, and give people a say in how our grid is run.
