VCHEC is placed under stringent environmental regulations by the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ). The plant is required to close by 2045 under the Virginia Clean Economy Act of 2020, though market forces will limit how much it actually operates to a capacity factor of below 20% and may close early.
