Duke (USA) Energy begins construction on largest solar plant in Surry
County N.C.
1
Solution Description
Duke Energy continues to expand solar power in North Carolina with construction starting on its 22.6-megawatt (MW) Stony Knoll Solar power plant. Once
completed, it will be the largest solar plant in Surry County. The project will be owned and operated by Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions. The project was
selected as part of the competitive bidding process established by 2017’s solar legislation in North Carolina. The solar plant will contain 76,600 Trina Solar
bifacial modules with single-axis tracking. The plant will be located on 195 acres in Dobson, N.C. – near Rockford Road. The facility will power the
equivalent of 5,000 homes. It is targeting commercial operation by the end of 2021. Under North Carolina’s Competitive Procurement for Renewable Energy,
proposed projects must be built where there is a need for energy capacity on the Duke Energy system in North Carolina or South Carolina. The bids can come
from any company, including Duke Energy, and can be in the form of power purchase agreements (PPA), utility self-developed facilities or utility asset
acquisitions. During peak construction, Stony Knoll Solar will create about 70 jobs. Along with indirect economic benefits that accompany solar project
development, such as increased local spending in the service and construction industries, Stony Knoll Solar will also have a positive economic impact on the
local community by providing local tax revenues to the county and local school districts, as well as meaningful payments to the participating landowners.
Duke Energy Sustainable Solutions also supports the communities where its facilities and team members are based through the efforts of the Duke Energy
Foundation. In January, the company awarded $10,000 to Copeland Elementary School in Dobson to fund the purchase of Chromebooks for students.

Exelon (USA) Foundation Launches First-Ever Hybrid STEM Leadership
Academy
2
The Exelon Foundation in collaboration with Exelon Corp., a Fortune 100 company and the nation’s largest generator of carbon-free energy, has
announced the return of its annual STEM Leadership Academy, which was launched in 2018 to encourage female students to pursue careers in
Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM). The Exelon Foundation hosts the STEM Academy events in cities where Exelon has
operating companies. The 2021 iteration of the Academy will be held for 180 students in Chicago (July 11-16), Philadelphia (July 25-30) and
Washington D.C./Baltimore (August 1-6). Amid easing pandemic restrictions, Academy participants will gather masked and in person for the first
day of each Academy. All participants will return to a virtual format for the remainder of each Academy, which will examine issues relating to
climate change. As part of the three week-long Academy events, 60 high school girls in each market will gather on the first day of the Academy to
pick up tools and needed supplies for experiments during the week, and then participate in online educational seminars, discussions and hands-on
workshops on the remaining days. Attendees also will take virtual field trips to noteworthy STEM-related landmarks in each host city. This year’s
Academy event will place a special focus on addressing the growing impacts of climate change and the disproportionate ways it is affecting the
most under-resourced populations. Students will be challenged to design their own energy-efficient product prototypes, with a panel of judges
selecting a winning project at the conclusion of each Academy.

Basic Agreement Signed on the Introduction of Automatic LPG Meter Reading Service,
Using Chubu Electric Power's (Japan) Smart Meter Communications Network
18
Enegene Co., Ltd. and Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc. are pleased to announce that they signed a basic agreement after reaching consensus on
Enegene’s adoption of the automatic gas meter reading service that makes use of Chubu Electric Power's smart meter communications network.
As Japan's population decreases and ages, information technology advances, and customer needs diversify further, expectations are high that
utilizing ICT and IoT will reduce labor required for meter reading and lead to the creation of new services. Enegene has been utilizing telephone
lines in some supply areas (in Shizuoka prefecture) to remotely obtain LPG usage, gas leakage as well as other information and data about alerts
and gas residual volumes. The company has also employed this technology to remotely shut off, restore and perform other LPG meter operations.
Pursuant to this Basic Agreement, both parties will strive to improve customer service and reduce labor involved in meter reading operations as
they proceed in FY2021 to install wireless communication terminals on LP gas meters and implement automatic meter reading and other services
utilizing Chubu Electric Power's smart meter communications network in Enegene’s service area principally west of the Fuji River. Chubu Electric
Power will continue to help LPG, city gas, and water service operators adopt automatic meter reading, using its smart meter communications
network, as part of the community support infrastructure business designed to contribute to resolving social issues.

Dominion Energy (USA) and Berkshire Hathaway Energy Agree to Terminate Sale
of Questar Pipelines; Dominion Energy Commencing Competitive Sale Process
21
Dominion Energy and Berkshire Hathaway Energy, an affiliate of Berkshire Hathaway Inc. announced they have agreed to terminate the
planned sale of Questar Pipelines to Berkshire Hathaway Energy. The decision is a result of ongoing uncertainty associated with
achieving clearance from the Federal Trade Commission under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976. Termination
of the sale, effective July 9, 2021, was a potential outcome provided for in the agreement to sell Questar Pipelines. The decision has no
impact on the sale of gas transmission and storage assets to Berkshire Hathaway Energy completed in November 2020. That sale
represented approximately 80% of the original transaction value. Dominion Energy is commencing a competitive process for the sale of
Questar Pipelines, with a target close of year-end 2021. Announcement does not change Dominion Energy's existing financial guidance.
Dominion Energy will continue to account for Questar Pipelines as discontinued operations. Dominion Energy intends to enter into a
364-day term loan. The company will use proceeds from the loan to repay the approximately $1.3 billion transaction deposit made by
Berkshire Hathaway Energy. That loan is expected to be repaid by year-end 2021 with proceeds from the sale of Questar Pipelines to an
alternative buyer.

Dominion Energy (USA), Ørsted and Eversource Reach Deal on Contract to
Charter Offshore Wind Turbine Installation Vessel
22
Dominion Energy, Ørsted and Eversource announced an agreement for Ørsted and Eversource to charter Dominion Energy's Charybdis, the first Jones Act-qualified
offshore wind turbine installation vessel in the United States, for the construction of two offshore wind farms in the Northeast. Charybdis, which is expected to be sea
ready by late 2023, will first be deployed out of New London harbor to support the construction of Revolution Wind and Sunrise Wind, both under joint development by
Ørsted and Eversource, to serve nearly 1 million homes in Rhode Island, Connecticut and New York. Once complete, the two projects will generate more than 1.6
gigawatts of clean, renewable energy. The charter's terms will allow the vessel, subject to state regulatory approval, to support construction of Dominion Energy's 2.6
gigawatt Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) project off the coast of Virginia Beach, which is expected, consistent with prior guidance, to be completed in 2026.
Dominion Energy is leading a consortium of renowned naval engineering and fabrication firms to build Charybdis, which will support thousands of American jobs, assist

SEUK’s Wilton International site on Teesside. Named Whitetail Clean Energy (Whitetail), the project is expected to produce about 300 megawatts
(MW) of clean, efficient, low-cost electricity, with potential expansion options in the future. The Wilton International site in northeast England offers
convenient port and pipeline access, where all Whitetail’s captured carbon dioxide can be conveniently transported to UK sequestration sites to be
permanently stored in secure geological formations deep under the North Sea. Subject to UK regulatory support and if finalised to proceed, the
collaboration agreement is an important milestone in advancing the decarbonisation of Teesside towards Net Zero, through the deployment of new
technology. The Whitetail facility is expected to harness the Allam-Fetvedt Cycle (AFC), a new type of power cycle pioneered by 8 Rivers Capital and
NET Power, LLC, a clean energy technology company in the United States. The process combusts natural gas with oxygen, rather than air, and uses
supercritical carbon dioxide (CO2) as a working fluid to drive a turbine instead of steam. As a result, all air emissions, including traditional pollutants
and CO2, are eliminated and pipeline-quality CO2 is produced so that it can be captured and stored offshore, making Whitetail a Net Zero emissions
plant.

Sempra Energy (USA) and National Renewable Energy Laboratory Collaborate
to Advance Future Net-Zero Energy Systems
44
Sempra Energy announced it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory
(NREL), providing a framework for a joint effort to advance future net-zero energy systems. The MOU, which builds off nearly 10 years of ongoing collaboration, will
continue current work researching and developing innovative solutions to help shape a lower-carbon future through technology and applications capable of withstanding
increasing energy demand and broad adoption while advancing future innovation. Sempra Energy and NREL have been collaborating for nearly a decade on cooperative
and multi-year projects exploring the development, access and integration of low-carbon fuels and microgrid technology. In 2013, Sempra Energy's subsidiary San Diego
Gas & Electric Co. (SDG&E) and NREL joined to establish the nation's first utility-owned community microgrid in Borrego Springs, Calif., connected to a local
26-megawatt solar field (owned by a third party), two battery storage systems, two generators, and an ultracapacitor. The microgrid, which is being upgraded so that it
can operate on 100% clean energy, was designed to provide consistent power flowing to the remote desert town during emergencies and planned outages on the larger
grid. In 2017, Sempra Energy's subsidiary Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) and NREL partnered to create, validate and integrate the nation's first carbon-free,
power-to-gas pilot-system. The technology takes excess electricity and converts it to hydrogen, which can be used, stored, or combined with carbon dioxide and fed to a
bioreactor to produce renewable natural gas (RNG). This innovative technology could provide North America with a large-scale, cost-effective solution for storing excess
energy produced from renewable sources. Additionally, Sempra Energy and NREL have coordinated efforts to research the impacts of hydrogen blending in natural gas
networks, and studied potential pathways for wholesale market access to hydrogen production facilities.
