AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Utility Mega-Merger: NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy just announced a $67B all-stock deal to create the world’s largest regulated electric utility, with NextEra owning about 74.5% and Dominion 25.5%, dual HQs in Juno Beach and Richmond, and $2.25B in bill credits proposed for customers across VA/NC/SC. Memorial Day Travel Costs: AAA says Memorial Day gas prices are set to hit the highest level since 2022, with the national average around $4.51—so road trips may cost more than the plans. Local Safety on the Coast: Myrtle Beach kicks off its annual Memorial Day weekend safety order, including restricting golf carts along Ocean Boulevard and giving police extra authority during the peak stretch. Workforce & Education: South Carolina approved four-year culinary bachelor’s degrees at technical colleges, with Trident Technical College launching a Bachelor of Applied Science in Culinary Arts Management. Wildlife Watch: Washington officials now think a yellow-legged hornet likely arrived as a stowaway on a cargo ship—while researchers warn it could be a bigger pollinator threat than “murder hornets.”
