According to CNBC, Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger said Thursday she will intervene in the proposed merger of NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy, a nearly $67 billion deal that would create the world's largest regulated electric utility. Spanberger said in a Washington Post opinion piece that she is skeptical a sale of Virginia's primary state-regulated utility to an out-of-state company is in the commonwealth's interest and said she has questions about what the transaction would mean for residents. Virginia's State Corporation Commission will review the deal, which it can accept, reject or approve with conditions, and her office said this is the first time a governor has taken such action before the commission. Spanberger said the intervention will let the governor's office raise concerns, request information and press for lower energy bills and long-term cost savings. NextEra shares fell more than 1% Thursday, while Dominion stock dropped more than 2%.
