Hopewell Power Station in Hopewell, Virginia is a 51 MW wood-biomass station owned by Dominion Energy. It began commercial operation in July 1992 as a coal-fired plant, and Dominion purchased it in 2003. Conversion to biomass firing was completed in 2013 as part of a roughly $165 million project that also covered the Altavista and Southampton stations. After conversion the unit was scheduled to run over 80% of the time, with Enviva Biomass serving as fuel aggregator.
