Dominion Energy South Carolina was honored by the Smart Energy Consumer Collaborative (SECC) for its outstanding support of small and midsize businesses by creating a comprehensive energy efficiency program that provides financial assistance, educates business owners and ensures high-quality implementation.
The company's Small Business Energy Solutions program received the SMB Engagement Award at SECC's 2025 Consumer Symposium, an annual forum spotlighting customer-focused innovations in the energy industry. Dominion Energy's award-winning program helps qualifying small businesses in South Carolina manage their energy costs by providing financial incentives for energy-saving upgrades to lighting as well as heating and cooling systems.
"We have a local, dedicated team of energy efficiency experts who work hard every day to help our customers - including many of the Palmetto State's small businesses - operate more efficiently and save on energy costs," said Keller Kissam, president of Dominion Energy South Carolina. "We're proud to be recognized for our team's commitment to innovative, effective energy-saving solutions that deliver real results."
The SMB Engagement Award celebrates innovation and leadership among electricity providers across the U.S. This year, Dominion Energy South Carolina joined a limited group of multiple-time recipients of the Best Practices Award.
"Innovation is essential to meeting customer needs amid the energy transition," said SECC's President & CEO Nathan Shannon. "This year's six winners showcase the innovative ways that electricity providers are helping consumers and small businesses address the challenges they are facing and meet their energy goals. We hope these inspiring examples will encourage further customer-focused innovation in the industry."
